Luke 12

¹⁵ And He said to them, “Watch out! Guard yourselves against every form of greed, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”

¹⁶ Then He told them a parable: “The ground of a certain rich man produced an abundance.

¹⁷ So he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, since I have nowhere to store my crops?’

¹⁹ Then I will say to myself, “You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take it easy. Eat, drink, and be merry!”’
