New American Standard Bible 1995
Matthew 6:25-30
25“1For this reason I say to you, 2do not be 3worried about your 4life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
265Look at the birds of the 6air, that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they?
27And who of you by being 7worried can 8add a single 9hour to his 10life?
28And why are you 11worried about clothing? Observe how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin,
29yet I say to you that not even 12Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these.
30But if God so clothes the 13grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you? 14You of little faith!
