Luke 12:16 in Context — Luke 12
14 Mas ele lhe disse: Homem, quem me pôs por juiz, ou repartidor sobre vós?
15 E disse-lhes: Olhai, e tomai cuidado com a ganância; porque a vida de alguém não consiste na abundância dos bens que possui.
16 E propôs-lhes uma parábola, dizendo: A terra de um homem rico tinha frutificado bem.
17 E ele questionava a si mesmo, dizendo: Que farei? Porque não tenho onde juntar meus frutos.
18 E disse: Farei isto: derrubarei meus celeiros, e construirei maiores, e ali juntarei toda esta minha colheita, e estes meus bens.
