Luke 12:15
Verse 15 of 59. The 12th of 24 chapters in Luke, in The Gospels.
11When they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, don’t be anxious how or what you will answer or what you will say;
12for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that same hour what you must say.”
13One of the multitude said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”
14But he said to him, “Man, who made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?”
15He said to them, “Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.”
16He spoke a parable to them, saying, “The ground of a certain rich man produced abundantly.
17He reasoned within himself, saying, ‘What will I do, because I don’t have room to store my crops?’
18He said, ‘This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.
19I will tell my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, and be merry.”’
