    25Therefore, 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 than food, and the body more than clothing?

    26Look at the birds of the sky: they do not sow, they do not reap, and they do not store away in barns. Yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they are?

    27Who among you, by worrying, can add a single cubit to their lifespan?

    28Why do you worry about clothing? Observe the lilies of the field and how they grow. They do not toil or spin.

    29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon, in all his glory, was clothed like one of these.

    30If God so dresses the grass of the field, which is here today and thrown into the oven tomorrow, will He not much more clothe you—O you of little faith?

    31So do not worry, saying, 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we drink?' or 'What will we wear?'

    32For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.

    33But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

    34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

    25Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

    26If then you cannot do even a very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?

    27Consider how the lilies grow. They do not labor or spin, yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was dressed like one of these.

    28If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, how much more will He clothe you—O you of little faith!

    29So do not seek what you will eat or what you will drink, and do not worry about it.

    30For all the nations of the world eagerly seek these things, and your Father knows that you need them.
