| 25 \"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life,
what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what
you will wear. Is not life more important than food,
and the body more important than clothes?
26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap
or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly
Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable
than they?
27 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to
his life?
28 \"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the
lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin.
29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his
splendor was dressed like one of these.
30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field,
which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into
the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you
of little faith?
31 So do not worry, saying, \'What shall we eat?\' or
\'What shall we drink?\' or \'What shall we wear?\'
32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your
heavenly Father knows that you need them.
33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness,
and all these things will be given to you as well.
34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for
tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has
enough trouble of its own.
