How Blessed are the poor,
For yours is the kingdom of God.
How blessed are you who are hungry now,
For you will be satisfied.
How blessed are you who weep now,
For you will laugh.
How blessed you when men hate you and ostracize you and insult you and denounce you as a criminal on account of the Son of Man.
Rejoice in that day and leap with joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For that is how their fathers treated the prophets.
But woe to you who are rich,
For you have already received your comfort
Woe to you who are well fed,
For you will go hungry.
Woe to you who are laughing now,
For you will mourn and weep.
Woe to you when people speak well of you for that is just how their fathers treated the false prophets.
But I tell you who hear me:
Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back.
Do onto to others as you would have them do onto you.
John 6
