111:1
Luc. XII, 13-21. Ait autem ei quidam de turba: Magister, die fratri meo ut dividat mecum hæreditatem. At ille dixit ei: Homo, quis me constituit judicem, aut divisorem supra vos? Dixitque ad illos: Videte et cavete ab omni avaritia, quia non in abundantia cujusquam vita ejus est, ex his quæ possidet. Dixit autem similitudinem ad illos dieens: Hominis cujusdam divitis uberes fruclus ager attulit, et cogitabat intra se, dicens: Quid faciam, quod non habeo quo congcegem fructus meos? Et dixit: Hoc faciam: destruam borrea mea, et majora faciam; et illuc congregabo omnia quae nata sunt mihi, et bona mea; et dicam animae meae: Anima, habes multa bona posita in annos plurimos:
(Luke xii, 13-21.) And one of the multitude said to him: Master, speak to my brother that he divide the inheritance with me. But he said to him: Man, who hath appointed me a judge, or a divider, over you? And he said to them: Take heed and beware of all covetousness; for a man's life doth not consist in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. And he spoke a similitude to them, saying: The land of a certain rich man brought forth plenty of fruits; and he thought within himself, saying: What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? And he said: This will I do: I will pull down my barns and build greater; and into them will I gather all things that are grown to me, and my goods; and I will say to my soul: Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years;
（路加福音十二13-21。）眾人中有一個人對耶穌說：「夫子，請你吩咐我的兄長和我分開家業。」耶穌說：「你這個人，誰立我作你們斷事的官，給你們分家業呢？」於是對眾人說：「你們要謹慎自守，免去一切的貪心，因為人的生命不在乎家道豐富。」就用比喻對他們說：「有一個財主，田地出產豐盛，自己心裡思想說：『我的出產沒有地方收藏，怎麼辦呢？』又說：『我要這麼辦：要把我的倉房拆了，另蓋更大的，在那裡好收藏我一切的糧食和財物，然後要對我的靈魂說：靈魂哪，你有許多財物積存，可作多年的費用；
111:2
requiesce, comede, bibe, epulare. Dixit autem illi Deus: Stolte, hac nocte animam tuam repetam a te: quæ autem parasti, cujus erunt ? Sic est qui sibi thesaurizat, et non est in Deum dives.
take thy rest; eat, drink, make merry. But God said to him: Thou fool, this night do they require thy soul of thee; and whose shall those things be which thou hast provided? So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich towards God.
只管安安逸逸地吃喝快樂吧！』神卻對他說：『無知的人哪，今夜必要你的靈魂；你所預備的要歸誰呢？』凡為自己積財，在神面前卻不富足的，也是這樣。」
