Luke 6:4-21

4 how he entered into the house of God, and took and ate the show bread, and gave also to those who were with him, which is not lawful to eat except for the Kohanim alone?"

5 He said to them, "The Son of Man is lord of the Shabbat."

6 It also happened on another Shabbat that he entered into the synagogue and taught. There was a man there, and his right hand was withered.

7 The Sofrim and the Perushim watched him, to see whether he would heal on the Shabbat, that they might find an accusation against him.

8 But he knew their thoughts; and he said to the man who had the withered hand, "Rise up, and stand in the middle." He arose and stood.

9 Then Yeshua said to them, "I will ask you something: Is it lawful on the Shabbat to do good, or to do harm? To save a life, or to kill?"

10 He looked around at them all, and said to him, "Stretch out your hand." He did, and his hand was restored as sound as the other.

11 But they were filled with rage, and talked with one another about what they might do to Yeshua.

12 It happened in these days, that he went out into the mountain to pray, and he continued all night in prayer to God.

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

14 Shim`on, whom he also named Kefa; Andrai, his brother; Ya`akov; Yochanan; Pilipos; Bar-Talmai;

15 Mattityahu; T'oma; Ya`akov, the son of Halfai; Shim`on, who was called the Zealot;

16 Yehudah the son of Ya`akov; and Yehudah from K'riot, who also became a traitor.

17 He came down with them, and stood on a level place, with a crowd of his talmidim, and a great number of the people from all Yehudah and Yerushalayim, and the sea coast of Tzor and Tzidon, 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 talmidim, 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.
