Luke 6:13-23

13 When it was day, he called his disciples, and from them he chose twelve, whom he also named apostles:

14 Simon, whom he also named Peter; Andrew, his brother; James; John; Philip; Bartholomew;

15 Matthew; Thomas; James, the son of Alphaeus; Simon, who was called the Zealot;

16 Judas the son of James; and Judas Iscariot, who also became a traitor.

17 He came down with them, and stood on a level place, with a crowd of his disciples, and a great number of the people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;

18 also those who were troubled with unclean spirits, and they were being healed.

19 All the multitude sought to touch him, for power came forth from him, and healed them all.

20 He lifted up his eyes to his disciples, and said, "Blessed are you poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

21 "Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. "Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.

22 "Blessed are you when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from them and reproach you, and throw out your name as evil, for the Son of Man's sake.

23 Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven, for their fathers did the same thing to the prophets.
