²⁷Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

²⁸And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

²⁷Which of you by taking thought, can adde one cubite vnto his stature?

²⁸And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lillies of the field, how they grow: they toile not, neither doe they spinne.
