Luke 12:20

The Parable Of The Rich Landowner Who Was A Fool

¹⁹ And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.' ²⁰ But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own what you have prepared?’ ²¹ So is the one who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God."
