'Blessed are' in the Bible

Then fixing His eyes upon His disciples, Jesus said to them, "Blessed are you poor, because the Kingdom of God is yours.

"Blessed are you who hunger now, because your hunger shall be satisfied. "Blessed are you who now weep aloud, because you shall laugh.

"Blessed are you when men shall hate you and exclude you from their society and insult you, and spurn your very names as evil things, for the Son of Man's sake.

And He turned towards His disciples and said to them apart, "Blessed are the eyes which see what you see!

Blessed are those servants, whom their Master when He comes shall find on the watch. I tell you in solemn truth, that He will tie an apron round Him, and will bid them recline at table while He comes and waits on them.

And whether it be in the second watch or in the third that He comes and finds them so, blessed are they.

For a time is coming when they will say, 'Blessed are the women who never bore children, and the breasts which have never given nourishment.'
