# For the Gentiles search for these things
|
|
|
|
"for the Gentiles are concerned about what they will eat, drink, and wear"
|
|
|
|
# your heavenly Father knows that you need them
|
|
|
|
Jesus is implying that God will make sure their basic needs are met.
|

|
|
# Father
|
|
|
|
This is an important title for God. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/guidelines-sonofgodprinciples]])

# seek first his kingdom and his righteousness
|
|
|
|
Here "kingdom" refers to God's rule as king. AT: "concern yourselves with serving God, who is your king, and doing what is right" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
|
|
|
|
# all these things will be given to you
|
|
|
|
This can be stated in active form. AT: "God will provide all these things for you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
|
|
|
|
# Therefore
|
|
|
|
"Because of all this"
|
|
|
|
# tomorrow will be anxious for itself
|
|
|
|
Jesus is describing "tomorrow" as if it is a person who can worry. Jesus means that a person will have enough to worry about when the next day comes. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]])
