Luke 12:12-31

12for the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 shall teachG1321 you in the hourG5610 itself what should be saidG3004.

13And a person saidG3004 to him out of the crowdG3793, TeacherG1320, speakG3004 to my brotherG80 to divide the inheritanceG2817 with me.

14But he saidG3004 to him, ManG444, who established me [as] a judgeG2923 or a divider over you?

15And he saidG3004 to them, Take heed and keepG5442 yourselves from all covetousnessG4124, for [it isG1510] not because a man isG1510 in abundanceG4052 [that] his lifeG2222 isG1510 in his possessionsG5225.

16And he spokeG3004 a parableG3850 to them, sayingG3004, The landG5561 of a certainG5100 richG4145 manG444 brought forth abundantly.

17And he reasonedG1260 within himself sayingG3004, What shall I do? for I have not [a place] whereG4226 I shall lay up my fruitsG2590.

18And he saidG3004, This will I do: I will take away my granaries and buildG3618 greaterG3173, and there I will lay up all my produceG4160 and my goodG18 thingsG3778;

19and I will sayG3004 to my soulG5590, SoulG5590, thou hast muchG4183 goodG18 thingsG4183 laid by for manyG4183 yearsG2094; repose thyself, eatG2068, drinkG4095, be merryG2165.

20But 1GodG2316 saidG3004 to him, FoolG878, this nightG3571 thy soulG5590 shall beG1510 required of thee; and whose shall beG1510 what thou hast preparedG2090?

21ThusG3779 is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not richG4147 toward 2GodG2316.

22And he saidG3004 to his disciplesG3101, For this cause I sayG3004 unto you, Be not careful for lifeG5590, what ye shall eatG2068, nor for the bodyG4983, what ye shall putG1746 on.

23The lifeG5590 isG1510 moreG4183 than foodG5160, and the bodyG4983 than raiment.

24ConsiderG2657 the ravens, that they sowG4687 not nor reapG2325; which have neither storehouse nor granary; and 3GodG2316 feedsG5142 them. HowG4214 muchG4214 better areG1510 ye than the birdsG4071?

25But which of you by being careful can addG4369 to his statureG2244 oneG3588 cubit?

26If thereforeG3767 ye cannot [do] evenG3761 what is leastG1646, whyG5101 are ye careful about the restG3062?

27ConsiderG2657 the liliesG2918 howG4459 they growG837: they neither toilG2872 nor spinG3514; but I sayG3004 unto you, Not evenG3761 SolomonG4672 in all his gloryG1391 was clothed as oneG1520 of these.

28But if 4GodG2316 thusG3779 clothe the grassG5528, which to-day isG1510 in the fieldG68 and to-morrow isG1510 castG906 into [the] oven, howG4214 muchG4214 ratherG3123 you, O ye of little faith?

29And ye, seekG2212 not what ye shall eatG2068 or what ye shall drinkG4095, and be not in anxiety;

30for all these thingsG3778 do the nationsG1484 of the worldG2889 seekG1934 after, and your FatherG3962 knows that ye have needG5535 of these thingsG3778;

31but seekG2212 his kingdomG932, and [all] these thingsG3778 shall be addedG4369 to you.
