20 And xhe lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said,

yBlessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.

21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled.

Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.

22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they zshall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake. 23 Rejoice ye in that day, and leap afor joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.

24 bBut woe unto you that are crich! for ye dhave received your econsolation.

25 Woe unto you that are full! for fye shall hunger.

Woe unto you gthat laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.

26 Woe unto you, hwhen all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the ifalse prophets.
