22And he said unto his disciples, hTherefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. 23The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment. 24Consider ithe ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have kstorehouse nor zbarn; and iGod feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls? 25And which of you with taking thought can add to his lstature mone cubit? 26If ye then be not able to do mthat thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest? 27Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 28If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith? 29And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, ||neither be ye of doubtful mind. 30For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. 31But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you. 32nFear not, olittle flock; for pit is your Father’s good pleasure to give you qthe kingdom. 33rSell that ye have, and sgive alms; tprovide yourselves ubags which wax not old, xa treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither xmoth corrupteth. 34yFor where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
