what ye shall say: (12)for the Holy Ghost will teach you at that very hour what ye ought to say. (13)Then spake one of the multitude to him, Master, order my brother to divide the inheritance with me. (14)But he said to him, Man, who made me a judge and a divider among you? (15)Then said he to them, Beware, and be on your guard against covetousness; for a man's life doth not depend on the abundance of his possessions. (16)And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The estate of a certain rich man bore plentifully: (17)and he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do? for I have not room where I may house my crops. (18)And he said, I will do this; I will take down my barns, and build them larger, and collect there all my crops, and my good things! (19)And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast a multitude of good things in store for many years, be at ease, eat, drink, and be merry! (20)But God said to him, Thou fool! this night shall they demand thy life from thee; and the things which thou hast prepared, whose shall they be? (21)Just such is every one who heapeth up treasure for self, and is not rich towards God. (22)Then said he to his disciples, For this reason I tell you, Be under no anxiety about your life, what ye shall eat, nor for your body, how ye shall be clothed.

(25)Which of you, with all his anxiety, can add one moment to his life? (26)If therefore ye are unable to do the least thing, why are ye anxious about the others? (27)Observe the lillies how they grow up, they toil not, nor spin; but I tell you, that Solomon in all his glory, was not arrayed like one of these. (28)If God then so clothe the grass in the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is thrown into the furnace; how much more you, O ye of little faith? (29)So then be not ye inquisitive what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, nor be agitated with restless anxiety. (30)For after all these things are the nations of the world seeking; and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. (31)But seek ye the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be given you over. (32)Fear not, little flock! for your Father takes delight in giving you the kingdom. (33)Sell all your possessions, and give in charity; make yo
