Luke 12:15-21
15But He said to them, “ aBeware, and be on your guard against every form of greed; for not even when one is affluent does his life consist of his possessions.” 16And He told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man was very productive. 17 And he began thinking to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?’ 18 And he said, ‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and I will store all my grain and my goods there. 19 And I will say to ▼▼Lit my soul, “Soul, you have...”
myself, “ cYou have many goods stored up for many years to come; relax, eat, drink, and enjoy yourself!”’ 20 But God said to him, ‘ dYou fool! This very night ▼▼Lit they are demanding your soul from you
fyour soul is demanded of you; and gas for all that you have prepared, who will own it now?’ 21 Such is the one who hstores up treasure for himself, and is not rich in relation to God.”
