¹⁶ Then he told them this story: "The farm of a certain rich man produced a terrific crop. ¹⁷ He talked to himself: 'What can I do? My barn isn't big enough for this harvest.' ¹⁸ Then he said, 'Here's what I'll do: I'll tear down my barns and build bigger ones. Then I'll gather in all my grain and goods, ¹⁹ and I'll say to myself, Self, you've done well! You've got it made and can now retire. Take it easy and have the time of your life!' ²⁰ "Just then God showed up and said, 'Fool! Tonight you die. And your barnful of goods--who gets it?' ²¹ "That's what happens when you fill your barn with Self and not with God."
