13 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go to such a city, and continue there a year, and traffick, and get gain:
14 Who know not what shall be on the morrow; for what is your life? It is a vapour that appeareth for a little time and then vanisheth away:

15 Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded; and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.
