Luke:6:17 @
And he came down with them to a level place ,
and a great band of his disciples ,
and a very great number of people from all Judaea and Jerusalem and from the parts of Tyre and Sidon by the sea ,
came to give hearing to him ,
and to be made well from their diseases ;
bbe @
Luke:6:18 @
And those who were troubled with unclean spirits were made well .
bbe @
Luke:6:19 @
And all the people were desiring to be touched by him ,
for power came from him and made them all well .
bbe @
Luke:6:20 @
And turning his eyes to his disciples he said ,
Happy are you who are poor :
for the kingdom of God is yours .
bbe @
Luke:6:21 @
Happy are you who are in need of food now :
for you will be made full .
Happy are you who are weeping now ;
for you will be glad .
bbe @
Luke:6:22 @
Happy are you ,
when men have hate for you ,
and put you away from among them and say angry words to you ,
turning away in disgust at your name ,
because of the Son of man .
bbe @
Luke:6:23 @
Be glad in that day ,
and be lifted up for joy ,
for your reward in heaven will be great :
for their fathers did these same things to the prophets .
bbe @
Luke:6:24 @
But unhappy are you who have wealth :
for you have been comforted now .
bbe @
Luke:6:25 @
Unhappy are you who are full of food now :
for you will be in need .
Unhappy are you who are laughing now :
for you will be crying in sorrow .
bbe @
Luke:6:26 @
Unhappy are you when all men give you their approval :
for so their fathers did to the false prophets .
bbe @
Luke:6:27 @
But I say to you who give ear to me ,
Have love for those who are against you ,
do good to those who have hate for you ,
bbe @
Luke:6:28 @
Give blessing to those who give you curses ,
say prayers for those who are cruel to you .
bbe @
Luke:6:29 @
If a man gives you a blow on one side of your face ,
then let the other side be turned to him ;
from him who takes away your coat ,
do not keep back your robe .
bbe @
Luke:6:30 @
Give to everyone who comes with a request ,
and if a man takes away your property ,
make no attempt to get it back again .
bbe @
Luke:6:31 @
Do to others as you would have them do to you .
bbe @
Luke:6:32 @
If you have love for those who have love for you ,
what credit is it to you ?
for even sinners have love for those who have love for them .
bbe @
Luke:6:33 @
And if you do good to those who do good to you ,
what credit is it to you ?
for even sinners do the same .
bbe @
Luke:6:34 @
And if you let those have the use of your money ,
from whom you are hoping to get it back ,
what credit is it to you ?
even sinners do so to sinners ,
hoping to get back as much as they gave .
bbe @
Luke:6:35 @
But be loving to those who are against you and do them good ,
and give them your money ,
not giving up hope ,
and your reward will be great and you will be the sons of the Most High :
for he is kind to evil men ,
and to those who have hard hearts .
bbe @
Luke:6:36 @
Be full of pity ,
even as your Father is full of pity .
bbe @
Luke:6:37 @
Be not judges of others ,
and you will not be judged :
do not give punishment to others ,
and you will not get punishment yourselves :
make others free ,
and you will be made free :
bbe @
Luke:6:38 @
Give ,
and it will be given to you ;
good measure ,
crushed down ,
full and running over ,
they will give to you .
For in the same measure as you give ,
it will be given to you again .
bbe @
Luke:6:39 @
And he gave them teaching in the form of a story ,
saying ,
Is it possible for one blind man to be guide to another ?
will they not go falling together into a hole ?
bbe @
Luke:6:40 @
The disciple is not greater than his master ,
but everyone whose learning is complete will be like his master .
bbe @
Luke:6:41 @
And why do you take note of the grain of dust in your brother '
s eye ,
but take no note of the bit of wood which is in your eye ?
bbe @
Luke:6:42 @
How will you say to your brother ,
Brother ,
let me take the grain of dust out of your eye ,
when you yourself do not see the bit of wood in your eye ?
O false one !
first take the wood out of your eye and then you will see clearly to take the dust out of your brother '
s eye .
bbe @
Luke:6:43 @
For no good tree gives bad fruit ,
and no bad tree gives good fruit .
bbe @
Luke:6:44 @
For every tree is judged by its fruit .
Men do not get figs from thorns ,
or grapes from blackberry plants .
bbe @
Luke:6:45 @
The good man ,
out of the good store of his heart ,
gives good things ;
and the evil man ,
out of his evil store ,
gives evil :
for out of the full store of the heart come the words of the mouth .
bbe @
Luke:6:46 @
Why do you say to me ,
Lord ,
Lord ,
and do not the things which I say ?
bbe @
Luke:6:47 @
Everyone who comes to me and gives ear to my words and does them ,
I will make clear to you what he is like :
bbe @
Luke:6:48 @
He is like a man building a house ,
who went deep and put the base of it on a rock ;
and when the water came up and the river was driving against that house ,
it was not moved ,
because the building was good .
bbe @
Luke:6:49 @
But he who gives hearing ,
without doing ,
is like a man building a house on the earth without a base for it ;
and when the force of the river came against it ,
straight away it came down ;
and the destruction of that house was great .
