Luke 12:15-17

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁵ And He said to them, Guard yourselves and keep free from all covetousness (the immoderate desire for wealth, the greedy longing to have more); for a man’s life does not consist in and is not derived from possessing ^[a]overflowing abundance or that which is ^[b]over and above his needs.

¹⁶ Then He told them a parable, saying, The land of a rich man was fertile and yielded plentifully.

¹⁷ And he considered and debated within himself, What shall I do? I have no place [in which] to gather together my harvest.
