Luke:6:23
rwp@Luke:6:23 @{Leap for joy} (\skirtˆsate\). Old verb and in LXX, but only in Luke in the N.T. (here and strkjv@1:41,44|). It answers to Matthew's (Matthew:5:12|) "be exceeding glad." {Did} (\epoioun\). Imperfect active, the habit of "their fathers" (peculiar to both here). strkjv@Matthew:5:12| has "persecuted." Thus they will receive a prophet's reward (Matthew:1:41|).
