27 Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin,[a] yet I tell you, (A)even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 28 But if God so clothes the grass, which is alive in the field today, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, (B)O you of little faith! 29 And do not seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, nor (C)be worried. 30 For (D)all the nations of the world seek after these things, and (E)your Father knows that you need them. 31 Instead, (F)seek (G)his[b] kingdom, (H)and these things will be added to you.

32 (I)“Fear not, little (J)flock, for (K)it is your Father's good pleasure to give you (L)the kingdom. 33 (M)Sell your possessions, and (N)give to the needy. (O)Provide yourselves with moneybags that do not grow old, with (P)a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. 34 (Q)For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
