Luke 12:27 in Context — Luke 12
25 ¿Y quién de vosotros podrá con afán añadir á su estatura un codo?
26 Pues si no podéis aun lo que es menos, ¿para qué estaréis afanosos de lo demás?
27 Considerad los lirios, cómo crecen: no labran, ni hilan; y os digo, que ni Salomón con toda su gloria se vistió como uno de ellos.
28 Y si así viste Dios á la hierba, que hoy está en el campo, y mañana es echada en el horno; ¿cuánto más á vosotros, [hombres] de poca fe?
29 Vosotros, pues, no procuréis qué hayáis de comer, ó qué hayáis de beber; ni estéis en ansiosa perplejidad.
