³ Put your works into the hands of the Lord, and your purposes will be made certain.

⁶ In all your ways give ear to him, and he will make straight your footsteps.

⁴ So will your delight be in the Lord, and he will give you your heart's desires.

⁵ Put your life in the hands of the Lord; have faith in him and he will do it.

²² Put your cares on the Lord, and he will be your support; he will not let the upright man be moved.

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

⁷ Putting all your troubles on him, for he takes care of you.

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?

²⁶ See the birds of heaven; they do not put seeds in the earth, they do not get in grain, or put it in store-houses; and your Father in heaven gives them food. Are you not of much more value than they?

²⁷ And which of you by taking thought is able to make himself a cubit taller?

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:

²⁹ But I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these.

³⁰ But if God gives such clothing to the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is put into the oven, will he not much more give you clothing, O you of little faith?

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?

³² Because the Gentiles go in search of all these things: for your Father in heaven has knowledge that you have need of all these things:

³³ But let your first care be for his kingdom and his righteousness; and all these other things will be given to you in addition.

³⁴ Then have no care for tomorrow: tomorrow will take care of itself. Take the trouble of the day as it comes.

²² And he said to his disciples, For this reason I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about what food you will take, or for your body, how it may be clothed.

²⁸ Your purposes will come about, and light will be shining on your ways.

⁸ But as for me, I would make my prayer to God, and I would put my cause before him:

⁵ Because Aram has made evil designs against you, saying,

⁶ Let us go up against Judah, troubling her, and forcing our way into her, and let us put up a king in her, even the son of Tabeel:

⁷ This is the word of the Lord God: This design will not come about or be effected.
