Lilies are beautiful flowers that grow wild in the fields. If your language does not have a word for lily, you can use the name of another flower like that or translate it as "flowers" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown]])

The process of making thread or yard for cloth is called "spinning." It may be helpful to make this explicit. AT: "neither do they make thread in order to make cloth" or "and they do not make yarn" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

# If God so clothes the grass in the field
"If God clothes the grass in the field like that" or "If God gives the grass in the field such beautiful clothing." AT: "If God makes the grass in the field beautiful like this" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

This is an exclamation, not a question. Jesus emphasizes that he will certainly take care of people even better than he does the grass. This could be stated clearly. AT: "he will certainly clothe you even better" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-exclamations]])
