Jesus' point in Matthew 6:25-34 is that disciples have no reason to be anxious about the necessities of life, for their heavenly Father will certainly provide for them and has called them to seek after much more than food, drink, and clothing- namely, the kingdom (cf. Matt 6:10) and the righteousness of God (Matt 5:20).

διὰ τοῦτο λέγω ὑμῖν μὴ μεριμνᾶτε τῇ ψυχῇ ὑμῶν τί φάγητε ἢ τί πίητε μηδὲ τῷ σώματι ὑμῶν τί ἐνδύσησθε

"Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on.

οὐχὶ ἡ ψυχὴ πλεῖόν ἐστιν τῆς τροφῆς καὶ τὸ σῶμα τοῦ ἐνδύματος

Surely life exists for more than food, and the body exists for more than clothing!

ἐμβλέψατε εἰς τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ

Look at the birds of the air:

ὅτι οὐ σπείρουσιν οὐδὲ θερίζουσιν οὐδὲ συνάγουσιν εἰς ἀποθήκας

they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns,

καὶ ὁ πατὴρ ὑμῶν ὁ οὐράνιος τρέφει αὐτά

and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.

οὐχ ὑμεῖς μᾶλλον διαφέρετε αὐτῶν

Surely you are of more value than they!

And you know that not one of you can add a single hour to his span of life

And you have no reason to be anxious about clothing.

καταμάθετε τὰ κρίνα τοῦ ἀγροῦ

Consider the lilies of the field,

πῶς αὐξάνουσιν οὐ κοπιῶσιν οὐδὲ νήθουσιν

how they grow: they neither toil nor spin,

λέγω δὲ ὑμῖν ὅτι οὐδὲ Σολομὼν ἐν πάσῃ τῇ δόξῃ αὐτοῦ περιεβάλετο ὡς ἓν τούτων

yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

εἰ δὲ τὸν χόρτον τοῦ ἀγροῦ σήμερον ὄντα καὶ αὔριον εἰς κλίβανον βαλλόμενον ὁ θεὸς οὕτως ἀμφιέννυσιν

But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven,

οὐ πολλῷ μᾶλλον ὑμᾶς ὀλιγόπιστοι

surely he will much more clothe you, O you of little faith!

For the Gentiles seek after all these things,

οἶδεν γὰρ ὁ πατὴρ ὑμῶν ὁ οὐράνιος ὅτι χρῄζετε τούτων ἁπάντων

for your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.

ζητεῖτε δὲ πρῶτον τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ τὴν δικαιοσύνην αὐτοῦ

But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness,

καὶ ταῦτα πάντα προστεθήσεται ὑμῖν

and all these things will be added to you.
