Luke 12:13-15

GOD’S WORD Translation

A Story about Material Possessions

¹³ Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to give me my share of the inheritance that our father left us.”

¹⁴ Jesus said to him, “Who appointed me to be your judge or to divide ⌞your inheritance⌟?”

¹⁵ He told the people, “Be careful to guard yourselves from every kind of greed. Life is not about having a lot of material possessions.”
