Footnotes

  1. 85 Grk “who are filled.” See L&N 23.18 for the translation “well satisfied with food.”
  2. 86 The wording “to you” (ὑμῖν, humin) is lacking in several witnesses (א B K L T W Θ Ξ 0147 f1, 13 579 700 892 1241 2542 al), though found in most (𝔓75 A D Q Ψ 33 𝔐 lat co). The longer reading looks to be a clarifying addition; nevertheless, “to you” is included in the translation because of English requirements.
  3. 87 That is, laugh with happiness and joy.
