3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. |
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. |
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. |
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. |
7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. |
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. |
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. |
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. |
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. |
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. |
