Matthew 5:11

The Beatitudes

¹⁰ Blessed are they which suffer persecution for righteousness sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. ¹¹ Blessed are ye when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall falsely say all manner of evil sayings against you for my sake. ¹² Rejoice, and be glad: for great is your reward in heaven: For so persecuted they the prophets which were before your days.
