'Blessed are' in the Bible

Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute [you] and say all kinds of evil things against you, lying on account of me.

And Jesus answered [and] said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, because flesh and blood did not reveal [this] to you, but my Father [who is] in heaven.

Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you and revile [you] and spurn your name as evil on account of the Son of Man.

Even if he should come back in the second or in the third watch of the night and find [them] like this, blessed are they!

Blessed [is] the one who reads aloud and [blessed are] those who hear the words of the prophecy and observe the things written in it, because the time [is] near!
