Matthew 6:27 in context

  1. 25Therefore I say unto you, Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the raiment?
  2. 26Behold the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not ye of much more value than they?
  3. 27And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit unto the measure of his life?
  4. 28And why are ye anxious concerning raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
  5. 29yet I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
