So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

NLTNew Living Translation

“So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink?

Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
