Matthew 5


cursetobless are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

cursetobless are they who mourn, for they will be comforted.

cursetobless are the meek, for they will inherit the land.

cursetobless are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.

cursetobless are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.

lessed are the clean of heart, for they will see God.

cursetobless are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.

cursetobless are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

cursetobless are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of evil against you (falsely) because of me.

Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven. Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
"You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its taste, with what can it be seasoned? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.
You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden.
