²⁴

But woe to you who are rich, For you have received your consolation.

²⁵

Woe to you who are full, For you shall hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, For you shall mourn and weep.

²⁶

Woe to you when all men speak well of you, For so did their fathers to the false prophets.

²⁷

But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

²⁸

bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you.

²⁹

To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either.

³⁰

Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back.
