Luke 6:17-23 - The Sermon On The Plain: The Beatitudes
17 And having come down with them, He stood upon a level place, and a great multitude of His disciples, and a great crowd of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and Tyre and Sidon by the sea, who came to hear Him, and to be healed of their diseases; 18 and those troubled by unclean spirits; and they were getting healed. 19 And the whole multitude sought to touch Him: because power was going out from Him, and was healing all.
20 And He lifting up His eyes to His disciples, said, Blessed are ye poor: because the kingdom of God is yours. 21 Blessed are ye who hunger now: because ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye who weep now: because ye shall laugh. 22 Blessed are ye, when the people may hate you, and when they may separate you, and cast out your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of man.
23 Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy: for behold your reward in heaven is great: for according to these things were their fathers accustomed to do to the prophets.
