25 Therefore I charge you, be not anxious about your life, what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; nor about your body, what you shall wear. Is not life a greater gift than food; and the body more than raiment?

26 Observe the fowls of heaven. They neither sow nor reap. They have no storehouse; but your heavenly Father feeds them. Are not you much more valuable than they?

27 Besides, which of you can, by his anxiety, prolong his life one hour?

28 And why are you anxious about raiment? Mark the lilies of the field. How do they grow? They toil not: they spin not.

29 Yet I affirm that even Solomon in all his glory, was not equally adorned with one of these.

30 If, then, God so array the herbage, which today is in the field, and to-morrow will be cast into the oven, will he not much more array you, O you distrustful!

31 Therefore say not anxiously, (as the heathens do,) What shall we eat; or what shall we drink; or with what shall we be clothed?

32 For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.

33 But seek first the kingdom of God and the righteousness required by him; and all these things shall be superadded to you.

34 Be not then anxious about the morrow: the morrow will be anxious about itself. Sufficient for every day is its own trouble.
