13And one of the company
said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me. 14And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a
divider over you? 15And he said unto
them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the
things which he possesseth. 16And he
spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
17And he thought within himself, saying, What
shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? 18And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build
greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. 19And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many
years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. 20But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be
required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? 21So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is
not rich toward God. (Luke
12:13-21, King James
Version)
