The Woes

Luke 6:24–26 · §79

²⁴“But woe to you who are rich!

For you have received your consolation.

²⁵Woe to you, you who are full now,

for you will be hungry.

Woe to you who laugh now,

for you will mourn and weep.

²⁶Woe, when men speak well of you,

for their fathers did the same thing to the false prophets.

Same passage in the King James Version

²⁴But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.

²⁵Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.

²⁶Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.
