Chapter 12

13Now someone in the crowd said to Him, 'Teacher, tell my brother to divide the family inheritance with me.'
14But He said to him, 'You there—who appointed Me a judge or arbitrator over the two of you?'
15But He said to them, 'Beware, and be on your guard against every form of greed; for not even when one is affluent does his life consist of his possessions.'
16And He told them a parable, saying, 'The land of a rich man was very productive.
17And he began thinking to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?’

Chapter 12
11And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say: 12For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
13And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.
14And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?
15And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
16And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
17And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
