Jesus: \u201cBlessed are you poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
\n21\u00a0\u201cBlessed are you that hunger now, for you shall be satisfied.
\n\u201cBlessed are you that weep now, for you shall laugh.
\n22 \u00b6\u201cBlessed 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! 23\u00a0Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven; for so their fathers did to the prophets.
\n24 \u00b6\u2016\u201cBut woe to you that are rich, for you have received your consolation.
\n25\u00a0\u201cWoe to you that are full now, for you shall hunger.
\n\u201cWoe to you that laugh now, for you shall mourn and weep.
\n26\u00a0\u201cWoe to you, when all men speak well of you, for so their fathers did to the false prophets. (Lk 6:20\u201326). San Francisco: Ignatius Press.<\/p>\n
