  **Show the text**

  1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Jesus Christ; To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and servants:

  2 Grace to you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

  3 I thank my God whenever I remember you,

  4 always in every request of mine on behalf of you all, making my requests with joy,

  5 for your partnership in furtherance of the Good News from the first day until now;

  6 being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.

  7 It is even right for me to think this way on behalf of all of you, because I have you in my heart, because both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the Good News, you all are partakers with me of grace.

- Gospel

  Luke 6:24–30

  **Show the text**

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

  25 Woe to you, you who are full now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.

  26 Woe, when men speak well of you, for their fathers did the same thing to the false prophets.

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

  28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you.

  29 To 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.

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