42_LUK_12_01 in the mean time , when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people , insomuch that they trode one upon another , he began to say unto his disciples first of all , Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees , which Is hypocrisy .
42_LUK_12_02 for there Is nothing covered , that shall not be revealed ; neither hid , that shall not be known .
42_LUK_12_03 therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light ; And that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops .
42_LUK_12_04 And I say unto you my friends , be not afraid of them that kill the body , And after that have no more that they can do .
42_LUK_12_05 but I will forewarn you whom ye shall Fear : Fear him , which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell ; yea , I say unto you , Fear him .
42_LUK_12_06 are not five sparrows sold for two farthings , And not one of them Is forgotten before God ?
42_LUK_12_07 but even the very hairs of your head are all numbered . Fear not therefore : ye are of more value than Many sparrows .
42_LUK_12_08 also I say unto you , whosoever shall confess me before men , him shall the son of man also confess before the angels of God :
42_LUK_12_09 but he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels of God .
42_LUK_12_10 And whosoever shall speak A word against the son of man , it shall be forgiven him : but unto him that blasphemeth against the holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven .
42_LUK_12_11 And when they bring you unto the synagogues , And [ unto ] magistrates , And powers , take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer , or what ye shall say :
42_LUK_12_12 for the holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say .
42_LUK_12_13 And one of the company said unto him , master , speak to my brother , that he divide the inheritance with me .
42_LUK_12_14 And he said unto him , man , who made me A judge or A divider over you ?
42_LUK_12_15 And he said unto them , take heed , And Beware of covetousness : for A man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth .
42_LUK_12_16 And he spake A parable unto them , saying , the ground of A certain rich man brought forth plentifully :
42_LUK_12_17 And he thought within himself , saying , what shall I do , because I have no room where to bestow my fruits ?
42_LUK_12_18 And he said , this will I do : I will pull down my barns , And build greater ; And there will I bestow all my fruits And my goods .
42_LUK_12_19 And I will say to my soul , soul , thou hast much goods laid up for Many years ; take thine ease , eat , drink , [ And ] be merry .
42_LUK_12_20 but God said unto him , [ thou ] fool , this night thy soul shall be required of thee : Then whose shall those things be , which thou hast provided ?
42_LUK_12_21 So [ Is ] he that layeth up treasure for himself , And Is not rich toward God .
42_LUK_12_22 And he said unto his disciples , therefore I say unto you , take no thought for your life , what ye shall eat ; neither for the body , what ye shall put on .
42_LUK_12_23 the life Is more than meat , And the body [ Is more ] than raiment .
42_LUK_12_24 consider the ravens : for they neither sow nor reap ; which neither have storehouse nor barn ; And God feedeth them : how much more are ye Better than the fowls ?
42_LUK_12_25 And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit ?
42_LUK_12_26 if ye Then be not able to do that thing which Is least , why take ye thought for the rest ?
42_LUK_12_27 consider the lilies how they grow : they toil not , they spin not ; And yet I say unto you , that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of These .
42_LUK_12_28 if Then God So clothe the grass , which Is to day in the field , And to morrow Is cast into the oven ; how much more [ will he clothe ] you , O ye of little faith ?
42_LUK_12_29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat , or what ye shall drink , neither be ye of doubtful mind .
42_LUK_12_30 for all These things do the nations of the world seek after : And your Father knoweth that ye have need of These things .
42_LUK_12_31 but rather seek ye the kingdom of God ; And all These things shall be added unto you .
42_LUK_12_32 Fear not , little flock ; for it Is your father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom .
42_LUK_12_33 sell that ye have , And give alms ; provide yourselves bags which wax not old , A treasure in the heavens that faileth not , where no thief approacheth , neither moth corrupteth .
42_LUK_12_34 for where your treasure Is , there will your heart be also .
42_LUK_12_35 let your loins be girded about , And [ your ] lights burning ;
42_LUK_12_36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their LORD , when he will Return from the wedding ; that when he cometh And knocketh , they may open unto him immediately .
42_LUK_12_37 blessed [ are ] those servants , whom the LORD when he cometh shall find watching : Verily I say unto you , that he shall gird himself , And make them to sit down to meat , And will come forth And serve them .
42_LUK_12_38 And if he shall come in the second watch , or come in the third watch , And find [ them ] So , blessed are those servants .
42_LUK_12_39 And this know , that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come , he would have watched , And not have suffered his house to be broken through .
42_LUK_12_40 be ye therefore ready also : for the son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not .
42_LUK_12_41 Then Peter said unto him , LORD , speakest thou this parable unto us , or even to all ?
42_LUK_12_42 And the LORD said , who Then Is that faithful And wise steward , whom [ his ] LORD shall make ruler over his household , to give [ them their ] portion of meat in due season ?
42_LUK_12_43 blessed [ Is ] that servant , whom his LORD when he cometh shall find So doing .
42_LUK_12_44 of A truth I say unto you , that he will make him ruler over all that he hath .
42_LUK_12_45 but And if that servant say in his heart , my LORD delayeth his coming ; And shall begin to beat the menservants And maidens , And to eat And drink , And to be drunken ;
42_LUK_12_46 the LORD of that servant will come in A day when he looketh not for [ him ] , And at an hour when he Is not aware , And will cut him in sunder , And will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers .
42_LUK_12_47 And that servant , which knew his LORD's will , And prepared not [ himself ] , neither did according to his will , shall be beaten with Many [ stripes ] .
42_LUK_12_48 but he that knew not , And did commit things worthy of stripes , shall be beaten with few [ stripes ] . for unto whomsoever much Is given , of him shall be much required : And to whom men have committed much , of him they will ask the more .
42_LUK_12_49 I am come to send fire on the earth ; And what will I , if it be already kindled ?
42_LUK_12_50 but I have A baptism to be baptized with ; And how am I straitened till it be accomplished !
42_LUK_12_51 suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth ? I tell you , Nay ; but rather division :
42_LUK_12_52 for from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided , three against two , And two against three .
42_LUK_12_53 the Father shall be divided against the son , And the son against the Father ; the mother against the daughter , And the daughter against the mother ; the mother in law against her daughter in law , And the daughter in law against her mother in law .
42_LUK_12_54 And he said also to the people , when ye see A cloud rise out of the west , straightway ye say , there cometh A shower ; And So it Is .
42_LUK_12_55 And when [ ye see ] the south wind blow , ye say , there will be heat ; And it cometh to pass .
42_LUK_12_56 [ ye ] hypocrites , ye can discern the face of the sky And of the earth ; but how Is it that ye do not discern this time ?
42_LUK_12_57 yea , And why even of yourselves judge ye not what Is right ?
42_LUK_12_58 when thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate , [ as thou art ] in the way , give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him ; lest he hale thee to the judge , And the judge deliver thee to the officer , And the officer cast thee into prison .
42_LUK_12_59 I tell thee , thou shalt not Depart thence , till thou hast paid the very last mite .
