Matthew 6:26 in Context — Matthew 6

24 Ninguém pode servir a dois senhores; pois ou odiará um e amará outro; ou se apegará a um, e desprezará o outro. Não podeis servir a Deus e às riquezas.

25 Por isso vos digo: não andeis ansiosos por vossa vida, sobre o que haveis de comer, ou que haveis de beber; nem por vosso corpo, sobre com que vos haveis de vestir. Não é a vida mais que o alimento, e o corpo [mais] que a roupa?

26 Olhai para as aves do céu, que não semeiam, nem ceifam, nem ajuntam em celeiros; e contudo vosso Pai celestial as alimenta. Não sois vós muito mais importantes que elas?

27 E qual de vós poderá, por sua ansiedade, acrescentar um côvado à sua estatura?

28 E por que andais ansiosos pela roupa? Prestai atenção aos lírios do campo, como crescem; eles nem trabalham nem fiam.
