Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.
In context
19The whole crowd kept trying to touch him, because power was going out from him and healing them all. 20Then he raised his eyes to his disciples and said: “Blessed are you who are poor, for the kingdom of God is yours. 21Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh. 22Blessed are you when people hate you, when they shut you out and insult you and throw out your name as evil, because of the Son of Man. 23Be glad on that day and leap for joy, for your reward in heaven is great; that is exactly how their ancestors treated the prophets.
