Lay Up Treasures in Heaven^(A)

^19 (B)“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal;

²¹ Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, ^(A)go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”

^41 (A)But rather give alms of ^[a]such things as you have; then indeed all things are clean to you.

Instructions to the Rich

¹⁷ Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain ^(A)riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things ^(B)to enjoy. ¹⁸ Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, ^19 (C)storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
