Luke 6:22-26

22 "¹Blessed are you when men hate you, and ²ostracize you, and insult you, and scorn your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of Man.

23 "Be glad in that day and ³leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven. For ⁴in the same way their fathers used to treat the prophets.

24 "But woe to ⁵you who are rich, for ⁶you are receiving your comfort in full.

25 "Woe to you who are well-fed now, for you shall be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you shall mourn and weep.

26 "Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers used to treat the ⁷false prophets in the same way.
