Aren’t five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten before God.
He gives food to the animals, and to the young ravens when they chirp.
Aren’t two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.
And a poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, worth less than a penny.
Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn, yet God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than the birds!
Consider how the flowers grow; they do not work or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these!
