St Luke 12:22-26 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

22. And he said to his disciples: Therefore I say to you, be not solicitous for your life, what you shall eat; nor for your body, what you shall put on.

23. The life is more than the meat, and the body is more than the raiment.

24. Consider the ravens, for they sow not, neither do they reap, neither have they storehouse nor barn, and God feedeth them. How much are you more valuable than they?

25. And which of you, by taking thought, can add to his stature one cubit?

26. If then ye be not able to do so much as the least thing, why are you solicitous for the rest?
