And he thought within himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, because I have no room to store my fruits?’
and he reasoned within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have not where to bestow my fruits?
And he began thinking to himself, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place [large enough in which] to store my crops?’
And he considered and debated within himself, What shall I do? I have no place [in which] to gather together my harvest.
And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
He thought to himself, ‘What should I do, since I don’t have anywhere to store my crops?
He thought to himself, “What should I do, since I don’t have anywhere to store my crops?
He said to himself, What will I do? I have no place to store my harvest!
He debated with himself, ‘What should I do? I haven’t enough room for all my crops.’
and he said to himself, “What can I do? I don't have a place large enough to store everything.”
And he reasoned within himself saying, What shall I do? for I have not [a place] where I shall lay up my fruits.
And he was reasoning within himself, saying, ‘What should I do, because I do not have a place where I will gather my fruits?’
And he thought within himself, saying: What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
He thought to himself, ‘What will I do? I have no place to keep all my crops.’
He thought about how much he would soon have. “I have nowhere to store all the food from my plants,” he said to himself.
He was thinking to himself, ‘What will I do, because I do not have anywhere to store my crops?’
and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’
and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’
He thought to himself, ‘What will I do? I have no place to keep all my crops.’
Therefore he thought with himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where I may lay up my fruits?
He thought, ‘What should I do? I don’t have enough room to store my crops.’
He began to think to himself, ‘I don't have a place to keep all my crops. What can I do?
He thought to himself, ‘What should I do, since I don’t have anywhere to store my crops?
The rich man thought to himself, ‘What will I do? I have no place to keep all my crops.’
So he began to think to himself, ‘What should I do, since I have no place to store my crops?’
Then he gave them a parable in these words, “Once upon a time a rich man’s farmland produced heavy crops. So he said to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have no room to store this harvest of mine?’ Then he said, ‘I know what I’ll do. I’ll pull down my barns and build bigger ones where I can store all my grain and my goods and I can say to my soul, Soul, you have plenty of good things stored up there for years to come. Relax! Eat, drink and have a good time!’ But God said to him, ‘You fool, this very night you will be asked for your soul! Then, who is going to possess all that you have prepared?’ That is what happens to the man who hoards things for himself and is not rich where God is concerned.”
and he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
and he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
And he began reasoning to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?’
And he reasoned to himself, saying, ‘What should I do? For I do not have anywhere I can gather in my crops.’
In fact, his barns were full to overflowing—he couldn’t get everything in. He thought about his problem,
Then he told them this story: “The farm of a certain rich man produced a terrific crop. He talked to himself: ‘What can I do? My barn isn’t big enough for this harvest.’ 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, 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!’
He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have no room to store my crops?’
And he thought to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, for I have no place to store · my crops?’
He thought, ‘What should I do? I don’t have enough room to store my crops.’
He asked himself, ‘What shall I do, for I do not have space to store my harvest?’
And he began thinking to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?’
And he began reasoning to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?’
He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I do not have sufficient space to store my crops?’
He thought to himself, ‘What will I do? I have no place to keep all my crops.’
so he thought to himself, ‘What should I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’
He thought to himself, ‘What should I do? I don’t have any place to store my crops.’
He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.’
He thought to himself, “What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.”
And he thought within himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no room to store my crops?’
The rich man thought to himself, ‘What will I do? I have no place to put the grain.’
He said to himself, ‘What should I do? I don’t have room for all my crops.’
and he thought in himself, saying, What should I do, since I have no room to store my fruits?
And he thought to himself, “What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?”
And he thought to himself, “What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?”
And he thought to himself, ‘What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?’
And he thought to himself, ‘What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?’
‘What shall I do?’ he said to himself. ‘I don’t have enough room to store my crops!
And he was thinking to himself, saying, What should I do? Because I do not have a place where I will store my crops.
“Therefore he thought to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my fruits?’
and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’
and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’
And he began thinking to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do? I don’t have a place to store my harvest!’
He often thought to himself, “I have a problem here. I don’t have anywhere to store all my crops. What should I do?
He reasoned within himself, saying, ‘What will I do, because I don’t have room to store my crops?’
He said to himself, "What will I do? I have no place to keep all the food I have grown."
And he thought within himself, and said [saying], What shall I do, for I have not whither I shall gather my fruits?
and he was reasoning within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have not where I shall gather together my fruits?
