Matthew 5:11

The Beatitudes

¹⁰ Happy those persecuted for righteousness' sake -- because theirs is the reign of the heavens. ¹¹ Happy are ye whenever they may reproach you, and may persecute, and may say any evil thing against you falsely for my sake -- ¹² rejoice ye and be glad, because your reward is great in the heavens, for thus did they persecute the prophets who were before you.
