20 (A)[a]And he lifted up his eyes upon his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.

21 (B)Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be satisfied: (C)blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.

22 (D)Blessed are ye when men hate you, and when [b]they separate you, and revile you, and put out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake.

23 Rejoice ye in that day, and [c]be glad: for behold, your reward is great in heaven: for after this manner their fathers did to the Prophets:

24 (E)But woe be to you that are rich: for ye have [d]received your consolation.

25 (F)Woe be to you that are full: for ye shall hunger. Woe be to you that now laugh: for ye shall wail and weep.

26 Woe be to you when all men speak well of you: for so did their fathers to the false prophets.
