Luke 6:22

Happiness And Sorrow

²¹ Blessed are you who hunger to-day! you shall be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep to-day! you shall laugh. ²² Blessed are you when men will hate you, when they will excommunicate you and denounce you and defame you as wicked on account of the Son of man; ²³ rejoice on that day and leap for joy! rich is your reward in heaven for their fathers did the very same to the prophets.
