Luke 12:13-21

Luke 12:13-21 YLT98

And a certain one said to him, out of the multitude, ‘Teacher, say to my brother to divide with me the inheritance.’ And he said to him, ‘Man, who set me a judge or a divider over you?’ And he said unto them, ‘Observe, and beware of the covetousness, because not in the abundance of one's goods is his life.’ And he spake a simile unto them, saying, ‘Of a certain rich man the field brought forth well; and he was reasoning within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have not where I shall gather together my fruits? and he said, This I will do, I will take down my storehouses, and greater ones I will build, and I will gather together there all my products and my good things, and I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast many good things laid up for many years, be resting, eat, drink, be merry. ‘And God said to him, Unthinking one! this night thy soul they shall require from thee, and what things thou didst prepare — to whom shall they be? so [is] he who is treasuring up to himself, and is not rich toward God.’
