Matthew 5:1–16

And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a ^amountain: and when he was ^aaset, his disciples came unto him: ²and he ^bopened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

^3cBlessed are ^dthe poor in spirit: for ^etheirs is the kingdom of heaven.

⁴Blessed are ^fthey that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

⁵Blessed are ^gthe meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

⁶Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: ^hfor they shall be filled.

⁷Blessed are the merciful: ⁱfor they shall obtain mercy.

⁸Blessed are ^kthe pure in heart: for ^lthey shall see God.

⁹Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

¹⁰Blessed are ^mthey which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

¹¹Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

¹²ⁿRejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for ^oso persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

¹³Ye are the salt of the earth: ^pbut if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. ^14qYe are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. ¹⁵Neither do men ^rlight a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. ¹⁶Let your light so shine before men, ^sthat they may see your good works, and ^stglorify your Father which is in heaven.
