Luke 12:15-21

<p>15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and<b> beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.</b>

16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:

17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?

18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.

19 And I will say to my soul, <b>Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.</b>

20 But God said unto him, Thou fool,<b> this night thy soul shall be required of thee:</b> then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?

<b>21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.</b></p>
