Matthew 5:11

The Beatitudes

¹⁰ Blessed are the persecuted for righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. ¹¹  Blessed are you when they shall reproach you, and persecute you, and say every evil against you, falsely, for my sake. ¹² Rejoice and exult, for great is your reward in heaven; for so persecuted they the prophets who were before you.
