17 And he came down with them and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and Jerusalem and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases;
18 and those that were tormented with unclean spirits were healed.
19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him, for there went virtue out of him and healed them all.
20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples and said, Blessed are the poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Blessed are those that hunger now, for ye shall be filled. Blessed are those 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 shall reproach you and cast out your name as evil for the sake of the Son of man.
23 Rejoice ye in that day and leap for joy; for, behold, your reward is great in heaven, for their fathers treated the prophets in the same manner.
