He began to think to himself, ‘I don’t have a place to keep all my crops. What can I do? This is what I will do,’ he told himself; ‘I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, where I will store the grain and all my other goods. Then I will say to myself, Lucky man! You have all the good things you need for many years. Take life easy, eat, drink, and enjoy yourself!’ But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night you will have to give up your life; then who will get all these things you have kept for yourself?’”<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;And Jesus concluded, “This is how it is with those who pile up riches for themselves but are not rich in God’s sight.”<br>&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς, Ὁρᾶτε καὶ φυλάσσεσθε ἀπὸ πάσης πλεονεξίας, ὅτι οὐκ ἐν τῷ περισσεύειν τινὶ ἡ ζωὴ αὐτοῦ ἐστιν ἐκ τῶν ὑπαρχόντων αὐτῷ.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Εἶπεν δὲ παραβολὴν πρὸς αὐτοὺς λέγων, Ἀνθρώπου τινὸς πλουσίου εὐφόρησεν ἡ χώρα. καὶ διελογίζετο ἐν ἑαυτῷ λέγων, Τί ποιήσω, ὅτι οὐκ ἔχω ποῦ συνάξω τοὺς καρπούς μου; καὶ εἶπεν, Τοῦτο ποιήσω, καθελῶ μου τὰς ἀποθήκας καὶ μείζονας οἰκοδομήσω καὶ συνάξω ἐκεῖ πάντα τὸν σῖτον καὶ τὰ ἀγαθά μου καὶ ἐρῶ τῇ ψυχῇ μου, Ψυχή, ἔχεις πολλὰ ἀγαθὰ κείμενα εἰς ἔτη πολλά· ἀναπαύου, φάγε, πίε, εὐφραίνου.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ θεός, Ἄφρων, ταύτῃ τῇ νυκτὶ τὴν ψυχήν σου ἀπαιτοῦσιν ἀπὸ σοῦ· ἃ δὲ ἡτοίμασας, τίνι ἔσται; οὕτως ὁ θησαυρίζων ἑαυτῷ καὶ μὴ εἰς θεὸν πλουτῶν.</blockquote><p><b>The Bible</b> (The New Testament) (AD 1st - 2nd C) Christian sacred scripture<br>Luke 12: 15-21 [GNT (1992 ed.)]</p> <p>More info about (and translations of) this quote: <a href="https://wist.info/bible-nt/78720/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">wist.info/bible-nt/78720/</a></p><p><a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=qotd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>qotd</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=bible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bible</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=jesus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>jesus</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=gospelofluke" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gospelofluke</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=avarice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>avarice</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=greed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>greed</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=mortality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mortality</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=riches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>riches</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=selfishness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>selfishness</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=treasure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>treasure</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=wealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wealth</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=worldliness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>worldliness</span></a></p>
