Luke 6:22

Happiness And Sorrow

²¹ "Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be satisfied! "Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh! ²²  "Blessed are you when people hate you and exclude you and denounce you and spurn the name you bear as evil, on account of the Son of Man. ²³ Be glad when that happens, and leap for joy, for you will be richly rewarded in heaven, for that is the way their forefathers treated the prophets.
