'Happy' in the Bible

Happy will she be who had faith that the things which the Lord has said to her will be done.

And turning his eyes to his disciples he said, Happy are you who are poor: for the kingdom of God is yours.

Happy are you who are in need of food now: for you will be made full. Happy are you who are weeping now; for you will be glad.

Happy are you, when men have hate for you, and put you away from among them and say angry words to you, turning away in disgust at your name, because of the Son of man.

And, turning to the disciples, he said privately, Happy are the eyes which see the things you see:

And it came about that when he said these things, a certain woman among the people said in a loud voice, Happy is the body which gave you birth, and the breasts from which you took milk.

But he said, More happy are they who give hearing to the word of God and keep it.

And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have a great amount of goods in store, enough for a number of years; be at rest, take food and wine and be happy.

Happy are those servants who are watching when the lord comes; truly I say to you, he will make himself their servant and, placing them at the table, he will come out and give them food.

And if he comes in the second division of the night or in the third, and they are watching for him, happy are those servants.

Happy is that servant who, when his lord comes, is doing so.

And, hearing these words, one of those who were at table with him said to him, Happy is the man who will be a guest in the kingdom of God.

For the days are coming in which they will say, Happy are those who have had no children, whose bodies have never given birth, whose breasts have never given milk.
