15 G1161 And G2036 he said [G5627] G4314 unto G846 them G3708 , Take heed [G5720] G2532 , and G5442 beware [G5732] G575 of G4124 covetousness G3754 : for G5100 a man's G846 G2222 life G2076 consisteth [G5748] G3756 not G1722 in G4052 the abundance [G5721] G1537 of G846 the things which he G5224 possesseth [G5723] .

16 G1161 And G2036 he spake [G5627] G3850 a parable G4314 unto G846 them G3004 , saying [G5723] G5561 , The ground G5100 of a certain G4145 rich G444 man G2164 brought forth plentifully [G5656] :

17 G2532 And G1260 he thought [G5711] G1722 within G1438 himself G3004 , saying [G5723] G5101 , What G4160 shall I do [G5661] G3754 , because G2192 I have [G5719] G3756 no G4226 room where G4863 to bestow [G5692] G3450 my G2590 fruits?

18 G2532 And G2036 he said [G5627] G5124 , This G4160 will I do [G5692] G2507 : I will pull down [G5692] G3450 my G596 barns G2532 , and G3618 build [G5692] G3187 greater G2532 ; and G1563 there G4863 will I bestow [G5692] G3956 all G3450 my G1081 fruits G2532 and G3450 my G18 goods.

19 G2532 And G2046 I will say [G5692] G3450 to my G5590 soul G5590 , Soul G2192 , thou hast [G5719] G4183 much G18 goods G2749 laid up [G5740] G1519 for G4183 many G2094 years G373 ; take thine ease [G5732] G5315 , eat [G5628] G4095 , drink [G5628] G2165 , and be merry [G5744] .

20 G1161 But G2316 God G2036 said [G5627] G846 unto him G878 , Thou fool G5026 , this G3571 night G4675 thy G5590 soul G523 shall be required [G5719] G575 of G4675 thee G1161 : then G5101 whose G2071 shall those things be [G5704] G3739 , which G2090 thou hast provided [G5656] ?

21 G3779 So G2343 is he that layeth up treasure [G5723] G1438 for himself G2532 , and G4147 is G3361 not G4147 rich [G5723] G1519 toward G2316 God.
