누가복음 6장 22-23절

    사람들이 너희를 미워하고, 인자 때문에 너희를 배척하고, 욕하고, 너희의 이름을 악하다고 내칠 때에는, 너희는 복이 있다. 그 날에 기뻐하고 뛰놀아라. 보아라, 하늘에서 받을 너희의 상이 크다. 그들의 조상들이 예언자들에게 이와 같이 사도행전하였다._새번역성경

人々があなたがたを 憎むとき、また 人の 子のためにあなたがたを 排斥し、ののしり、汚名を 着せるときは、あなたがたはさいわいだ。その 日には 喜びおどれ。見よ、天においてあなたがたの 受ける 報いは 大きいのだから。彼らの 祖先も、預言者たちに 対して 同じことをしたのである。_口語訳 "Blessed are you when men hate you, and ostracize you, and insult you, and scorn your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of Man. "Be glad in that day and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven For in the same way their fathers used to treat the prophets. _NASB

“Count yourself blessed every time someone cuts you down or throws you out, every time someone smears or blackens your name to discredit me. What it means is that the truth is too close for comfort and that that person is uncomfortable. You can be glad when that happens—skip like a lamb, if you like!—for even though they don’t like it, I do . . . and all heaven applauds. And know that you are in good company; my preachers and witnesses have always been treated like this._The Message
