22 And he said unto his disciples—For this cause, I say unto you,—Be not anxious for the life, what ye shall eat, nor yet for [your] body, what ye shall put on;
23 For, the life, is more, than the food, and, the body, than, the clothing.
24 Consider well the ravens—That they sow nor, neither do they reap, which have neither chamber nor barn,—and, God, feedeth, them! By how much do, ye, excel, the birds?
