Luke 6:20-22
EasyEnglish Bible
20 Jesus looked at his disciples. He spoke this message to them:
‘Happy are you people that are poor. The kingdom of God belongs to you.[a]
21 Happy are you people that are hungry now. God will feed you until you are full.[b]
Happy are you people that are crying now. Later, you will laugh.[c]
22 People may hate you, because you believe in me, the Son of Man. They may say bad things against you and make you go away from them. They may say that you are very bad. When that happens, be happy.
