Lukas 12:15-31

12:15 Then ¹  he said to them, “Watch out and guard yourself from ²  all types of greed, ³  because one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.” 12:16 He then ⁴  told them a parable: ⁵  “The land of a certain rich man produced ⁶  an abundant crop, 12:17 so ⁷  he thought to himself, ⁸  ‘What should I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’ ⁹  12:18 Then ¹⁰  he said, ‘I ¹¹  will do this: I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 12:19 And I will say to myself, ¹²  “You have plenty of goods stored up for many years; relax, eat, drink, celebrate!”’ 12:20 But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life ¹³  will be demanded back from ¹⁴  you, but who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’ ¹⁵  12:21 So it is with the one who stores up riches for himself, ¹⁶  but is not rich toward God.”

Exhortation Not to Worry

12:22 Then ¹⁷  Jesus ¹⁸  said to his ¹⁹  disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry ²⁰  about your ²¹  life, what you will eat, or about your ²²  body, what you will wear. 12:23 For there is more to life than food, and more to the body than clothing. 12:24 Consider the ravens: ²³  They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn, yet God feeds ²⁴  them. How much more valuable are you than the birds! 12:25 And which of you by worrying ²⁵  can add an hour to his life? ²⁶  12:26 So if ²⁷  you cannot do such a very little thing as this, why do you worry about ²⁸  the rest? 12:27 Consider how the flowers ²⁹  grow; they do not work ³⁰  or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these! 12:28 And if ³¹  this is how God clothes the wild grass, ³²  which is here ³³  today and tomorrow is tossed into the fire to heat the oven, ³⁴  how much more ³⁵  will he clothe you, you people of little faith! 12:29 So ³⁶  do not be overly concerned about ³⁷  what you will eat and what you will drink, and do not worry about such things. ³⁸  12:30 For all the nations of the world pursue ³⁹  these things, and your Father knows that you need them. 12:31 Instead, pursue ⁴⁰  his ⁴¹  kingdom, ⁴²  and these things will be given to you as well.
