Matt6:33


Seek ye first the kingdom of God and its righteousness, and every other thing shall be added unto you.

Seek ye first the kingdom of God and all other things shall be added unto you.

Did you notice anything wrong with the above statements? If no then you are probably a professional in misquoting this verse.

This are the right quotations from different translations of the Bible.

New International Version (NIV)
33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Matthew 6:33 Worldwide English (New Testament) (WE)
33 `Work first for God's kingdom and what he calls good. Then you will have all these things also

Matthew 6:33 Amplified Bible (AMP)
33 But seek aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides.

Matthew 6:33 King James Version (KJV)
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

The bible says "these things" and not "all things" or "everything". It was making reference to the basic needs, i.e food, shelter and clothing.
