See the birds of heaven; they do not put seeds in the earth, they do not get in grain, or put it in store-houses; and your Father in heaven gives them food. Are you not of much more value than they?

If therefore they should say to you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth; Behold, in the store-houses, believe ye not.

And he said, This I will do: I will take down my store-houses and make greater ones, and there I will put all my grain and my goods.

Give thought to the ravens; they do not put seeds into the earth, or get together grain; they have no store-houses or buildings; and God gives them their food: of how much greater value are you than the birds!
