15 And he said to them, Watch, and keep away from greed, because to any man, life to him is not in the abundance of things possessed by him.

16 And he spoke a parable to them, saying, The land of a certain rich man brought forth well.

17 And he pondered within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have nowhere I will store my crops?

18 And he said, I will do this. I will dismantle my barns, and I will build greater, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.

19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou have many goods laid up for many years. Take thine ease, eat, drink, be merry.

20 But God said to him, Thou foolish man, they demand thy soul from thee this night, and the things that thou prepared, whose will they be?

21 So is he who stores up for himself, and is not being rich toward God.

15 Wherfore he sayde vnto them: take hede and beware of covetousnes. For no mannes lyfe stondeth in the aboundaunce of the thinges which he possesseth.

16 And he put forth a similitude vnto them sayinge: The groude of a certayne riche ma brought forth frutes plenteously

17 and he thought in himsilfe sayinge: what shall I do? because I have noo roume where to bestowe my frutes?

18 And he sayde: This will I do. I will destroye my barnes and bilde greater and therin will I gadder all my frutes and my goodes:

19 and I will saye to my soule: Soule thou hast moch goodes layde vp in stoore for many yeares take thyne ease: eate drinke and be mery.

20 But God sayde vnto him: Thou fole this night will they fetche awaye thy soule agayne from the. Then whose shall thoose thinges be which thou hast provyded?

21 So is it with him that gadereth ryches and is not ryche in God.
