Lucas 12

15 Then he said to them, "Watch out and be on your guard against *12:15 covetousness ¦ all covetousness ANT CTcovetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions." 16 And he told them a parable: "The land of a certain rich man produced abundantly. 17 So he thought to himself, ‘What should I do, for I do not have anywhere to store my crops?’ 18 Then he said, ‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my *12:18 produce ¦ grain CTproduce and my goods. 19 And I will say to my soul, "Soul, yoʋ have many goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, and be merry." ’ 20 But God said to him, ‘Yoʋ fool! This very night yoʋr life will be demanded *12:20 back ¦ --- TH WHback from yoʋ, and the things yoʋ have prepared, whose will they be?’ 21 This is how it will be with anyone who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God."
