----Matthew 5:1-12 ----
1 ¶ And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a
mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came
unto him:
2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them,
saying,
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.
