²⁸ And why are you troubled about clothing? See the flowers of the field, how they come up; they do no work, they make no thread:

²⁵ So I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about food or drink, or about clothing for your body. Is not life more than food, and the body more than its clothing?

³¹ Then do not be full of care, saying, What are we to have for food or drink? or, With what may we be clothed?

²⁷ Give thought to the flowers: they do no work, they make no thread; and still I say to you, Even Solomon, in all his glory, was not clothed like one of these.

³⁵ And he said to them, When I sent you out without money or bag or shoes, were you in need of anything? And they said, Nothing.

³⁶ And he said to them, But now, he who has a money-bag, or a bag for food, let him take it: and he who has not, let him give his coat for money and get a sword.

⁶ Have no cares; but in everything with prayer and praise put your requests before God.

¹⁰ Take no bag for your journey and do not take two coats or shoes or a stick: for the workman has a right to his food.

¹¹ And he made answer and said to them, He who has two coats, let him give to him who has not even one; and he who has food, let him do the same.
