Luke 12:27 in Context — Luke 12

25 E quem de vós pode, com sua ansiedade, acrescentar um côvado à sua altura?

26 Pois, se não podeis nem mesmo com algo pequeno, por que estais ansiosos com o resto?

27 Considerai os lírios, como crescem; não trabalham, nem fiam; e digo-vos, que nem mesmo Salomão, em toda sua glória, [chegou] a se vestir como um deles.

28 E se assim Deus veste a erva, que hoje está no campo, e amanhá é lançada no forno, quanto mais [vestirá] a vós, homens de pouca fé?

29 Vós, pois, não pergunteis que comereis, ou que bebereis; e não andeis preocupados.
