Luke 12:13-22

13And a person said to him out of the crowd, Teacher, speak to my brother to divide the inheritance with me.

14But he said to him, Man, who established me [as] a judge or a divider over you?

15And he said to them, Take heed and keep yourselves from all covetousness, for [it is] not because a man is in abundance [that] his life is in his possessions.

16And he spoke a parable to them, saying, The land of a certain rich man brought forth abundantly.

17And he reasoned within himself saying, What shall I do? for I have not [a place] where I shall lay up my fruits.

18And he said, This will I do: I will take away my granaries and build greater, and there I will lay up all my produce and my good things;

19and I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much good things laid by for many years; repose thyself, eat, drink, be merry.

20But 1God said to him, Fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee; and whose shall be what thou hast prepared?

21Thus is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward 2God.

22And he said to his disciples, For this cause I say unto you, Be not careful for life, what ye shall eat, nor for the body, what ye shall put on.
