15. And He said to them, “Take heed and beware of covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses.”
16. Then He spoke a parable to them, saying: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded plentifully.
17. And he thought within himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no room to store my crops?’
18. So he said, ‘I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build greater, and there I will store all my crops and my goods.
19. And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years; take your ease; eat, drink, and be merry.” ’
20. But God said to him, ‘Fool! This night your soul will be required of you; then whose will those things be which you have provided?’
21. “So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”
