15 And he said to them, See ye, and beware of all covetousness; for the life of a man is not in the abundance of the things, which he wieldeth.
16 And he told to them a likeness, and said, The field of a rich man brought forth plenteous fruits.
17 And he thought within himself, and said, What shall I do, for I have not whither I shall gather my fruits?
18 And he saith, This thing I shall do; I shall throw down my barns, and I shall make greater, and thither I shall gather all things that grow to me, and my goods.
19 And I shall say to my soul, Soul, thou hast many goods kept into full many years; rest thou, eat, drink, and make feast.
20 And God said to him, Fool, in this night they shall take thy life from thee [or they shall ask of thee thy soul]. And whose shall those things be, that thou hast arrayed?
21 So is he that treasureth to himself, and is not rich in God.
