18And he said, This will I doe, I will pull downe my barnes, and build greater, and there will I bestow all my fruits, and my goods. 19And I will say to my soule, Soule, thou hast much goods layd vp for many yeeres, take thine ease, eate, drinke, and be merry. 20But God said vnto him, Thou foole, this night thy soule shal be required of thee: then whose shal those things be which thou hast prouided? 21So is he that laieth vp treasure for himselfe, and is not rich towards God. 22¶ And he said vnto his disciples, Therefore I say vnto you, Take no thought for your life what yee shall eate, neither for the body what yee shall put on.
