Luke 6:20-26

He lifted up his eyes to his disciples, and said, "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh. Blessed are you when men hate you, when they exclude you, when they mock you, and when they label you as evil because you follow the Son of Man. Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy! For great is your reward in heaven. Remember that the prophets were treated the same way. But woe to you who are rich, for you have already received your reward. Woe to you who are well fed now, for you will go hungry. Woe to you who are laughing now, for you will mourn and weep. And woe to you when everyone is nice to you, for false prophets were treated the same way."
