Luke 6:23 Context
21Blessed are yee that hunger now: for yee shall be filled. Blessed are yee that weepe now, for yee shall laugh. 22Blessed are yee when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shal reproach you, and cast out your name as euill, for the Sonne of mans sake. 23Reioice yee in that day, and leape for ioy: for behold, your reward is great in heauen for in the like maner did their fathers vnto the Prophets. 24But woe vnto you that are rich: for yee haue receiued your consolation. 25Woe vnto you that are full: for yee shall hunger. Woe vnto you that laugh now: for yee shall mourne and weepe.
