Matthew 5:11

The Beatitudes

¹⁰ Blessed they who are persecuted on account of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of the heavens. ¹¹ Blessed are ye when they may reproach and persecute you, and say every wicked thing against you, lying, for my sake. ¹² Rejoice and exult, for your reward is great in the heavens; for thus have they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
