1. Parable of the Rich Fool 12:13-21
Luk 12:13
And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.Luk 12:14
And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?Luk 12:15
And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.Luk 12:16
And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:Luk 12:17
And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?Luk 12:18
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.Luk 12:19
And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.Luk 12:20
But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?Luk 12:21
So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
