13 “You are the salt+ of the earth, but if the salt loses its strength, how will its saltiness be restored? It is no longer usable for anything except to be thrown outside+ to be trampled on by men.

34 “Salt, to be sure, is fine. But if the salt loses its strength, with what will it be seasoned?+ 35 It is not suitable for soil or for manure. People throw it away. Let the one who has ears to listen, listen.”+
