25 For this cause I say unto you, Do not be careful about your life, what ye should eat and what ye should drink; nor for your body what ye should put on. Is not the life more than food, and the body than raiment?

26 Look at the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, nor reap, nor gather into granaries, and your heavenly Father nourishes them. Are *ye* not much more excellent than they?

27 But which of you by carefulness can add to his growth one cubit?

25 所以我告诉你们, 不要为生命忧虑吃什么喝什么, 也不要为身体忧虑穿什么。难道生命不比食物重要吗?身体不比衣服重要吗?

26 你们看天空的飞鸟: 它们不撒种, 不收割, 也不收进仓里, 你们的天父尚且养活它们; 难道你们不比它们更宝贵吗?

27 你们中间谁能用忧虑使自己的寿命延长一刻呢?
