Luke:12:11-22
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And when they bring you unto the synagogues ,
and unto magistrates ,
and powers ,
take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer ,
or what ye shall say :
*
For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say .
*
And one of the company said unto him ,
Master ,
speak to my brother ,
that he divide the inheritance with me .
*
And he said unto him ,
Man ,
who made me a judge or a divider over you ?
*
And he said unto them ,
Take heed ,
and beware of covetousness :
for a man '
s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth .
*
And he spake a parable unto them ,
saying ,
The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully :
*
And he thought within himself ,
saying ,
What shall I do ,
because I have no room where to bestow my fruits ?
*
And he said ,
This will I do :
I will pull down my barns ,
and build greater ;
and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods .
*
And I will say to my soul ,
Soul ,
thou hast much goods laid up for many years ;
take thine ease ,
eat ,
drink ,
and be merry .
*
But God said unto him ,
Thou fool ,
this night thy soul shall be required of thee :
then whose shall those things be ,
which thou hast provided ?
*
So is he that layeth up treasure for himself ,
and is not rich toward God .
*
And he said unto his disciples ,
Therefore I say unto you ,
Take no thought for your life ,
what ye shall eat ;
neither for the body ,
what ye shall put on .
