25 Daarom sê Ek vir julle: Moenie julle kwel oor jul lewe -- wat julle sal eet en wat julle sal drink nie; of oor jul liggaam -- wat julle sal aantrek nie. Is die lewe nie meer as die voedsel en die liggaam as die klere nie?

26 Kyk na die voëls van die hemel; hulle saai nie en hulle maai nie en hulle bring nie bymekaar in skure nie, en tog voed julle hemelse Vader hulle. Is julle nie baie meer werd as hulle nie?

27 Wie tog onder julle kan, deur hom te kwel, een el by sy lengte voeg?

25 So I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about food or drink, or about clothing for your body. Is not life more than food, and the body more than its clothing?

26 See the birds of heaven; they do not put seeds in the earth, they do not get in grain, or put it in store-houses; and your Father in heaven gives them food. Are you not of much more value than they?

27 And which of you by taking thought is able to make himself a cubit taller?
