Verse 27

Consider{G2657}{(G5657)} the lilies{G2918} how{G4459} they grow{G837}{(G5719)}: they toil{G2872}{(G5719)} not{G3756}, they spin{G3514}{(G5719)} not{G3761}; and yet{G1161} I say{G3004}{(G5719)} unto you{G5213}, that Solomon{G4672} in{G1722} all{G3956} his{G846} glory{G1391} was{G4016} not{G3761} arrayed{G4016}{(G5639)} like{G5613} one{G1520} of these{G5130}.

Matt 6:28-30 : 28 And{G2532} why{G5101} take ye thought{G3309}{(G5720)} for{G4012} raiment{G1742}? Consider{G2648}{(G5628)} the lilies{G2918} of the field{G68}, how{G4459} they grow{G837}{(G5719)}; they toil{G2872}{(G5719)} not{G3756}, neither{G3761} do they spin{G3514}{(G5719)}: 29 And yet{G1161} I say{G3004}{(G5719)} unto you{G5213}, That{G3754} even{G3761} Solomon{G4672} in{G1722} all{G3956} his{G846} glory{G1391} was{G4016} not{G3761} arrayed{G4016}{(G5639)} like{G5613} one{G1520} of these{G5130}. 30 Wherefore{G1161}, if{G1487} God{G2316} so{G3779} clothe{G294}{(G5719)} the grass{G5528} of the field{G68}, which to day{G4594} is{G5607}{(G5752)}, and{G2532} to morrow{G839} is cast{G906}{(G5746)} into{G1519} the oven{G2823}, shall he not{G3756} much{G4183} more{G3123} clothe you{G5209}, O ye of little faith{G3640}?
Luke 12:24 : 24 Consider{G2657}{(G5657)} the ravens{G2876}: for{G3754} they neither{G3756} sow{G4687}{(G5719)} nor{G3761} reap{G2325}{(G5719)}; which{G3739} neither{G3756} have{G2076}{(G5748)} storehouse{G5009} nor{G3761} barn{G596}; and{G2532} God{G2316} feedeth{G5142}{(G5719)} them{G846}: how much{G4214} more{G3123} are{G1308} ye{G5210} better than{G1308}{(G5719)} the fowls{G4071}?
Jas 1:10-11 : 10 But{G1161} the rich{G4145}, in{G1722} that he{G846} is made low{G5014}: because{G3754} as{G5613} the flower{G438} of the grass{G5528} he shall pass away{G3928}{(G5695)}. 11 For{G1063} the sun{G2246} is no sooner risen{G393}{(G5656)} with{G4862} a burning heat{G2742}, but{G2532} it withereth{G3583}{(G5656)} the grass{G5528}, and{G2532} the flower{G438} thereof{G846} falleth{G1601}{(G5627)}, and{G2532} the grace{G2143} of the fashion{G4383} of it{G846} perisheth{G622}{(G5639)}: so{G3779} also{G2532} shall{G3133} the rich man{G4145} fade away{G3133}{(G5701)} in{G1722} his{G846} ways{G4197}.
