Matthew 6:19-34
- 19
- Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
- 20
- But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
- 21
- For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
- 22
- The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
- 23
- But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
- 24
- No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
- 25
- Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
- 26
- Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
- 27
- Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
- 28
- And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
- 29
- And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
- 30
- Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
- 31
- Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
- 32
- (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
- 33
- But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
- 34
- Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
