are not you of much greater value than they?
006:027 Which of you by being over-anxious can add a single foot
to his height?
006:028 And why be anxious about clothing? Learn a lesson from the
wild lilies. Watch their growth. They neither toil nor spin,
006:029 and yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his magnificence
could array himself like one of these.
006:030 And if God so clothes the wild herbage which to-day flourishes
and to-morrow is thrown into the oven, is it not much more
certain that He will clothe you, you men of little faith?
006:031 Do not be over-anxious, therefore, asking `What shall we eat?'
or `What shall we drink?' or `What shall we wear?'
006:032 For all these are questions that Gentiles are always asking;
but your Heavenly Father knows that you need these things--
all of them.
006:033 But make His Kingdom and righteousness your chief aim,
and then these things shall all be given you in addition.
006:034 Do not be over-anxious, therefore, about to-morrow,
for to-morrow will bring its own cares. Enough for each day
are its own troubles.
007:001 "Judge not, that you may not be judged;
007:002 for your own judgement will be dealt--and your own
measure meted--to yourselves.
007:003 And why do you look at the splinter in your brother's eye,
and not notice the beam which is in your own eye?
007:004 Or how say to your brother, `Allow me to take the splinter
out of your eye,' while the beam is in your own eye?
007:005 Hypocrite, first take the beam out of your own eye,
and then you will see clearly how to remove the splinter
from your brother's eye.
