6Luke 6

1Now on the second Sabbath after the first, he was going through the grain fields. His disciples plucked the heads of grain, and ate, rubbing them in their hands.Select Luke 6:1

2But some of the Pharisees said to them, “Why do you do that which is not lawful to do on the Sabbath day?”Select Luke 6:2

3Jesus, answering them, said, “Haven’t you read what David did when he was hungry, he, and those who were with him;Select Luke 6:3

4how he entered into God’s house, and took and ate the show bread, and gave also to those who were with him, which is not lawful to eat except for the priests alone?”Select Luke 6:4

5He said to them, “The Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.”Select Luke 6:5

6It also happened on another Sabbath that he entered into the synagogue and taught. There was a man there, and his right hand was withered.Select Luke 6:6

7The scribes and the Pharisees watched him, to see whether he would heal on the Sabbath, that they might find an accusation against him.Select Luke 6:7

8But he knew their thoughts; and he said to the man who had the withered hand, “Rise up, and stand in the middle.” He arose and stood.Select Luke 6:8

9Then Jesus said to them, “I will ask you something: Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good, or to do harm? To save a life, or to kill?”Select Luke 6:9

10He looked around at them all, and said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He did, and his hand was restored as sound as the other.Select Luke 6:10

11But they were filled with rage, and talked with one another about what they might do to Jesus.Select Luke 6:11

12In these days, he went out to the mountain to pray, and he continued all night in prayer to God.Select Luke 6:12

13When it was day, he called his disciples, and from them he chose twelve, whom he also named apostles:Select Luke 6:13

14Simon, whom he also named Peter; Andrew, his brother; James; John; Philip; Bartholomew;Select Luke 6:14

15Matthew; Thomas; James, the son of Alphaeus; Simon, who was called the Zealot;Select Luke 6:15

16Judas the son of James; and Judas Iscariot, who also became a traitor.Select Luke 6:16

17He came down with them, and stood on a level place, with a crowd of his disciples, and a great number of the people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases;Select Luke 6:17

18as well as those who were troubled by unclean spirits, and they were being healed.Select Luke 6:18

19All the multitude sought to touch him, for power came out of him and healed them all.Select Luke 6:19

20He lifted up his eyes to his disciples, and said, “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the Kingdom of God.Select Luke 6:20

21Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.Select Luke 6:21

22Blessed are you when men shall hate you, and when they shall exclude and mock you, and throw out your name as evil, for the Son of Man’s sake.Select Luke 6:22

23Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven, for their fathers did the same thing to the prophets.Select Luke 6:23

24“But woe to you who are rich! For you have received your consolation.Select Luke 6:24

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.Select Luke 6:25

26Woe,whenmen speak well of you, for their fathers did the same thing to the false prophets.Select Luke 6:26

27“But I tell you who hear: love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,Select Luke 6:27

28bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you.Select Luke 6:28

29To him who strikes you on the cheek, offer also the other; and from him who takes away your cloak, don’t withhold your coat also.Select Luke 6:29

30Give to everyone who asks you, and don’t ask him who takes away your goods to give them back again.Select Luke 6:30

31“As you would like people to do to you, do exactly so to them.Select Luke 6:31

32If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.Select Luke 6:32

33If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.Select Luke 6:33

34If you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to receive back as much.Select Luke 6:34

35But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing back; and your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High; for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil.Select Luke 6:35

36“Therefore be merciful, even as your Father is also merciful.Select Luke 6:36

37Don’t judge, and you won’t be judged. Don’t condemn, and you won’t be condemned. Set free, and you will be set free.Select Luke 6:37

38“Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be given to you. For with the same measure you measure it will be measured back to you.”Select Luke 6:38

39He spoke a parable to them. “Can the blind guide the blind? Won’t they both fall into a pit?Select Luke 6:39

40A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher.Select Luke 6:40

41Why do you see the speck of chaff that is in your brother’s eye, but don’t consider the beam that is in your own eye?Select Luke 6:41

42Or how can you tell your brother, ‘Brother, let me remove the speck of chaff that is in your eye,’ when you yourself don’t see the beam that is in your own eye? You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck of chaff that is in your brother’s eye.Select Luke 6:42

43For there is no good tree that produces rotten fruit; nor again a rotten tree that produces good fruit.Select Luke 6:43

44For each tree is known by its own fruit. For people don’t gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush.Select Luke 6:44

45The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil, for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.Select Luke 6:45

46“Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and don’t do the things which I say?Select Luke 6:46

47Everyone who comes to me, and hears my words, and does them, I will show you who he is like.Select Luke 6:47

48He is like a man building a house, who dug and went deep, and laid a foundation on the rock. When a flood arose, the stream broke against that house, and could not shake it, because it was founded on the rock.Select Luke 6:48

49But he who hears, and doesn’t do, is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream broke, and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great.”Select Luke 6:49
