Matthew 5:11–18

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

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

13 Ye 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. 14 qYe are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither 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. 16 Let your light so shine before men, sthat they may see your good works, and stglorify your Father which is in heaven.

17 uThink not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, xTill heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
