Luke 6:17-27

17 And Jesus came down from the hill with them, and stood in a field place; and the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of [poor] people, of all Judaea, and Jerusalem, and of the sea coasts, and of Tyre and Sidon, that came to hear him [which came, that they should hear him], and to be healed of their sicknesses;
18 and they that were travailed of unclean spirits, were healed. [and they that were travailed with unclean spirits, were healed.]
19 And all the people [And each company of the people] sought to touch him, for virtue went out of him, and healed all.
20 And when his eyes were cast up into his disciples, he said, Blessed be ye, poor men [Blessed ye, poor], for the kingdom of God is yours.
21 Blessed be ye, that now hunger, for ye shall be full-filled. Blessed be ye, that now weep, for ye shall laugh. [Blessed be ye that hunger now, for ye shall be filled. Blessed be ye that weep now, for ye shall laugh.]
22 Ye shall be blessed, when men shall hate you, and [shall] separate you away, and [shall] put reproof to you [and shall put shame on you], and cast out your name as evil, for man's Son.
23 Joy ye in that day, and be ye glad; for lo! your meed is much in heaven; for after these things the fathers of them did to prophets.
24 Nevertheless woe to you, rich men, that have your comfort.
25 Woe to you that be full-filled [Woe to you that be filled], for ye shall hunger. Woe to you that now laugh [Woe to you that laugh now], for ye shall mourn, and weep.
26 Woe to you, when all men shall bless you; after these things the fathers of them did to [false] prophets.
27 But I say to you that hear, love ye your enemies, do ye well to them that hated you [do ye well to them that hate you];
