13 Someone in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, tell my brother to
divide the family inheritance with me." 14 But he said to him, "Friend,
who set me to be a judge or arbitrator over you?" 15 And he said to
them, "Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; for
one's life does not consist in the abundance of possessions." 16 Then he
told them a parable: "The land of a rich man produced abundantly. 17
And he thought to himself, 'What should I do, for I have no place to
store my crops?' 18 Then he said, 'I will do this: I will pull down my
barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my
goods. 19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have ample goods laid up
for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.' 20 But God said to him,
'You fool! This very night your life is being demanded of you. And the
things you have prepared, whose will they be?' 21 So it is with those
who store up treasures for themselves but are not rich toward God."
