Matthew 6:28 in Context — Matthew 6
26 Mirad las aves del cielo, que no siembran, ni siegan, ni allegan en alfolíes; y vuestro Padre celestial las alimenta. ¿No sois vosotros mucho mejores que ellas?
27 Mas ¿quién de vosotros podrá, congojándose, añadir á su estatura un codo?
28 Y por el vestido ¿por qué os congojáis? Reparad los lirios del campo, cómo crecen; no trabajan ni hilan;
29 Mas os digo, que ni aun Salomón con toda su gloria fué vestido así como uno de ellos.
30 Y si la hierba del campo que hoy es, y mañana es echada en el horno, Dios [la] viste así, ¿no [hará] mucho más á vosotros, [hombres] de poca fe?
