Matthew 6:25-33 So I tell you, stop worrying about your life, as to what you will have to eat or drink, or about your body, as to what you will have to wear. Is not life worth more than food and the body worth more than clothes?

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁵ So I tell you, stop worrying about your life, as to what you will have to eat or drink, or about your body, as to what you will have to wear. Is not life worth more than food and the body worth more than clothes? ²⁶ Take a good look at the wild birds, for they do not sow or reap, or store up food in barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps on feeding them. Are you not worth more than they? ²⁷ But which of you by worrying can add a single minute to his life? ²⁸ And why should you worry about clothes? Look at the wild lilies and learn how they grow. They do not toil or spin; ²⁹ but I tell you, not even Solomon, in all his gorgeous splendor, was ever dressed up like a single one of these. ³⁰ Now if God so gorgeously dresses the wild grass which today is green but tomorrow is tossed into the furnace, will He not much more surely clothe you, O you with little faith? ³¹ So never worry and say, 'What are we going to have to eat? What are we going to have to drink? What are we going to have to wear?' ³² For the heathen are greedily pursuing all such things; and surely your heavenly Father well knows that you need them all. ³³ But as your first duty keep on looking for His standard of doing right, and for His will, and then all these things will be yours besides.
