Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

Nehmet wahr der Lilien auf dem Felde, wie sie wachsen: sie arbeiten nicht, auch spinnen sie nicht. Ich sage euch aber, daß auch Salomo in aller seiner Herrlichkeit nicht ist bekleidet gewesen als deren eines.
Considerad los lirios, cómo crecen: no labran, ni hilan; y os digo, que ni Salomón con toda su gloria se vistió como uno de ellos.
Consideren cómo crecen los lirios: no trabajan ni hilan. Pero les digo que ni Salomón, con toda su gloria, se vistió como uno de ellos.
Considérez comment croissent les lis: ils ne travaillent ni ne filent; cependant je vous dis que Salomon même, dans toute sa gloire, n'a pas été vêtu comme l'un d'eux.
Considerate i gigli, come crescono; essi non lavorano, e non filano; e pure io vi dico, che Salomone stesso, con tutta la sua gloria, non fu vestito al par dell’uno di essi.
Considerai os lírios, como eles crescem; não trabalham, nem fiam; e digo-vos que nem ainda Salomão, em toda a sua glória, se vestiu como um deles.
你們想一想百合花是怎麼長起來的:它也不勞動,也不紡線。然而我告訴你們,就是 所羅門 極榮華的時候,他所穿戴的還不如這些花的一朵呢!
