But there is nothing covered up, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. |

12:3
Wherefore whatsoever ye have said in the darkness shall be heard in the light; and what ye have spoken in the ear in the inner chambers shall be proclaimed upon the housetops. |

12:5
But°
I will forewarn°°
you°

he spake°°
a parable°
unto°
them,°

The°

himself,°
saying,°°
What°

12:18
And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my grain and my goods. |

12:18
And°
he said,°°
This°

I will pull down°°
