Mark 4:21-24 GNB Jesus continued, "Does anyone ever bring in a lamp and put it under a bowl or under the bed? Isn't it put on the lampstand? (22) Whatever is hidden away will be brought out into the open, and whatever is covered up will be uncovered. (23) Listen, then, if you have ears!" (24) He also said to them, "Pay attention to what you hear! The same rules you use to judge others will be used by God to judge you---but with even greater severity.

Mark 4:21-24 CEV Jesus also said: You don't light a lamp and put it under a clay pot or under a bed. Don't you put a lamp on a lampstand? (22) There is nothing hidden that will not be made public. There is no secret that will not be well known. (23) If you have ears, pay attention! (24) Listen carefully to what you hear! The way you treat others will be the way you will be treated--and even worse.

Mark 4:21-24 GW Jesus said to them, "Does anyone bring a lamp into a room to put it under a basket or under a bed? Isn't it put on a lamp stand? (22) There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed. There is nothing kept secret that will not come to light. (23) Let the person who has ears listen!" (24) He went on to say, "Pay attention to what you're listening to! Knowledge will be measured out to you by the measure of attention you give. This is the way knowledge increases.

Mark 4:21-24 NWT And he went on to say to them: “A lamp is not brought to be put under a measuring basket or under a bed, is it? It is brought to be put upon a lampstand, is it not? 22 For there is nothing hidden except for the purpose of being exposed; nothing has become carefully concealed but for the purpose of coming into the open. 23 Whoever has ears to listen, let him listen.” 24 He further said to them: “Pay attention to what YOU are hearing. With the measure that YOU are measuring out, YOU will have it measured out to YOU, yes, YOU will have more added to YOU.

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
