I say unto you, take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat,
or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put
on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
3 Nephi 13:26
26 Behold the fowls of the air, for they sow not, neither do
they reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth
them. Are ye not much better than they?
3 Nephi 13:27
27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his
stature?
3 Nephi 13:28
28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of
the field how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin;
3 Nephi 13:29
29 And yet I say unto you, that even Solomon, in all his glory,
was not arrayed like one of these.
3 Nephi 13:30
30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which
today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, even so will he
clothe you, if ye are not of little faith.
3 Nephi 13:31
31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or,
What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
3 Nephi 13:32
32 For your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all
these things.
3 Nephi 13:33
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness,
and all these things shall be added unto you.
3 Nephi 13:34
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow, for the morrow
shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient is the
day unto the evil thereof.
3 Nephi 14 Chapter 14
3 Nephi 14:1
1 And now it came to pass that when Jesus had spoken these words
he turned again to the multitude, and did open his mouth unto
them again, saying: Verily, verily, I say unto you, Judge not,
that ye be not judged.
3 Nephi 14:2
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with
what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3 Nephi 14:3
3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye,
but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
3 Nephi 14:4
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother: Let me pull the mote out
of thine eye—and behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
3 Nephi 14:5
5 Thou hypocrite, first cast the beam out of thine own eye; and
then shalt thou see clearly to cast the mote out of thy brother's
eye.
3 Nephi 14:6
6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye
your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their
feet, and turn again and rend you.
3 Nephi 14:7
7 Ask, and it shall be given unto you; seek, and ye shall find;
knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
3 Nephi 14:8
8 For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh,
findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.
3 Nephi 14:9
9 Or what man is there of you, who, if his son ask bread, will
give him a stone?
3 Nephi 14:10
10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
3 Nephi 14:11
11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your
children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give
good things to them that ask him?
3 Nephi 14:12
12 Therefore, all things whatsoever ye would that men should do
to you, do ye even so to them, for this is the law and the
prophets.
3 Nephi 14:13
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate; for wide is the gate, and
broad is the way, which leadeth to destruction, and many there be
who go in thereat;
3 Nephi 14:14
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which
leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
3 Nephi 14:15
15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's
clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
3 Nephi 14:16
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of
thorns, or figs of thistles?
3 Nephi 14:17
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a
corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
3 Nephi 14:18
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither a corrupt
tree bring forth good fruit.
3 Nephi 14:19
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down,
and cast into the fire.
3 Nephi 14:20
20 Wherefore, by their fruits ye shall know them.
3 Nephi 14:21
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter
into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my
Father who is in heaven.
3 Nephi 14:22
22 Many will say to me in that day: Lord, Lord, have we not
prophesied in thy name, and in thy name have cast out devils, and
in thy name done many wonderful works?
3 Nephi 14:23
23 And then will I profess unto them: I never knew you; depart
from me, ye that work iniquity.
3 Nephi 14:24
24 Therefore, whoso heareth these sayings of mine and doeth
them, I will liken him unto a wise man, who built his house upon
a rock—
3 Nephi 14:25
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds
