Matthew 5:12

The Beatitudes

¹¹ Blessed are ye when they may despise you, and shall persecute you, and may say all evil against you, falsifying, for my sake. ¹²  Rejoice, and he exceedingly glad: because your reward is great in the heavens: for in this manner they persecuted the prophets who were before you. ¹³ Ye are the salt of the earth; and if the salt may lose its savor, in what shall it be salted? It is yet without value, except having been cast out, to be trodden under feet by the people.
