*
And he came down with them and stood on a level place ,
with a great crowd of his disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem and the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon ,
who came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases ;
*
and those who were troubled with unclean spirits were cured .
*
And all the crowd sought to touch him ,
for power came forth from him and healed them all .
*
And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples ,
and said : "
Blessed are you poor ,
for yours is the kingdom of God .
* "
Blessed are you that hunger now ,
for you shall be satisfied . "
Blessed are you that weep now ,
for you shall laugh .
* "
Blessed are you when men hate you ,
and when they exclude you and revile you ,
and cast out your name as evil ,
on account of the Son of man !
*
Rejoice in that day ,
and leap for joy ,
for behold ,
your reward is great in heaven ;
for so their fathers did to the prophets .
* "
But woe to you that are rich ,
for you have received your consolation .
* "
Woe to you that are full now ,
for you shall hunger . "
Woe to you that laugh now ,
for you shall mourn and weep .
* "
Woe to you ,
when all men speak well of you ,
for so their fathers did to the false prophets .
