Luke 6:20-23
New King James Version
The Beatitudes(A)
20 Then He lifted up His eyes toward His disciples, and said:
(B)“Blessed are you poor,
For yours is the kingdom of God.
21 (C)Blessed are you who hunger now,
For you shall be (D)filled.[a]
(E)Blessed are you who weep now,
For you shall (F)laugh.
22 (G)Blessed are you when men hate you,
And when they (H)exclude you,
And revile you, and cast out your name as evil,
For the Son of Man’s sake.
23 (I)Rejoice in that day and leap for joy!
For indeed your reward is great in heaven,
For (J)in like manner their fathers did to the prophets.
