Luke 6:24

Happiness And Sorrow

²³ Be glad in that day, and be lifted up for joy, for your reward in heaven will be great: for their fathers did these same things to the prophets. ²⁴ But unhappy are you who have wealth: for you have been comforted now. ²⁵ Unhappy are you who are full of food now: for you will be in need. Unhappy are you who are laughing now: for you will be crying in sorrow.

Woe to You
