11Blessed are you
when people revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. 12Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. |
10 | 22Blessed are you
when people hate you, and when they exclude you, revile you, and defame you on account of the Son of Man, 23Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for surely your reward is great in heaven; for that is what their ances tors did to the prophets. |
26Woe to you
when all speak well of you, for that is what their ancestors did to the false prophets. |
