New Testament

Luke 6:19-35 American Standard Version (ASV)

19. And all the multitude sought to touch him; for power came forth from him, and healed them all.

20. And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed are ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.

21. Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.

22. Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake.

23. Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy: for behold, your reward is great in heaven; for in the same manner did their fathers unto the prophets.

24. But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.

25. Woe unto you, ye that are full now! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you, ye that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.

26. Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for in the same manner did their fathers to the false prophets.

27. But I say unto you that hear, Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you,

28. bless them that curse you, pray for them that despitefully use you.

29. To him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and from him that taketh away thy cloak withhold not thy coat also.

30. Give to every one that asketh thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.

31. And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

32. And if ye love them that love you, what thank have ye? for even sinners love those that love them.

33. And if ye do good to them that do good to you, what thank have ye? for even sinners do the same.

34. And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? even sinners lend to sinners, to receive again as much.

35. But love your enemies, and do them good, and lend, never despairing; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be sons of the Most High: for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil.
