Luke 6:22

Happiness And Sorrow

²¹ Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be completely satisfied! Blessed are you who are weeping now, for you will laugh! ²²  Blessed are you when people hate you and exclude you and denounce you, and spurn your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of Man. ²³ Burst into joy on that day and leap for ecstasy, for your reward will be rich in heaven; for this is the way your forefathers used to treat the prophets.

Blessed are
