If, then, you are not able to do even that which is least, why are you troubled about the rest?
27
Give thought to the flowers: they do no work, they make no thread; and still I say to you, Even Solomon, in all his glory, was not clothed like one of these.
28

29
And do not give overmuch thought to your food and drink, and let not your mind be full of doubts.
30
For the nations of the world go in search of all these things: but your Father has knowledge that you have need of them.
31
But let your chief care be for his kingdom, and these other things will be given to you in addition.
32
Have no fear, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
33
Give what property you have in exchange for money, and give the money to the poor; make for yourselves money-bags which will not get old, wealth stored up in heaven which will be yours for ever, where thieves will not come nor worms put it to destruction.
34
For where your wealth is, there will your heart be.
35
Be ready, dressed as for a journey, with your lights burning.
36
And be like men who are looking for their lord, when he comes back from the bride-feast; so that when he comes to the door, it will be open to him quickly.
