Luke 12:13-21 - The Parable Of The Rich Landowner Who Was A Fool

13 And a certain one out of the crowd said to him, Teacher, speak to my brother to divide the inheritance with me.

14 And he said to him, Man, who appointed me judge or distributer over you 15 And he said to them, See, and watch yourselves from covetousness: for not in the abounding to any one of his possessions is his life.

16 And he spake a parable to them, saying, The farm of a certain rich man bore well: 17 And he calculated in himself, saying, What shall I do, for I have not where I shall collect together my fruits? 18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my stores, and build greater; and there will I collect all my produce and my good things. 19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast many good things laid up for many years; rest, eat, drink, be gladdened.

20 And God said to him, O foolish one, this night they require thy soul from thee: and what thou hast prepared, to whom shall it be?

21 So he treasuring up for himself, and not rich toward God.
