Matthew 5:3-12 - The Beatitudes

3 Blessed are they, that are of an humble spirit, for of such is the kingdom of the Messias. 4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. 5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. 6 Blessed are they who hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be satisfied. 7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. 8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. 9 Blessed are the pacific: for they shall be the children of God. 10 Blessed are they who are persecuted upon the account of righteousness: for their's is the kingdom of heaven.

11 Blessed shall you be when men shall revile and persecute you, and falsely charge you with all manner of evil for your attachment to me. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great will be your reward in heaven: for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
