*
And seeing the multitudes ,
he went up into a mountain :
and when he was set ,
his disciples came unto him :
*
And he opened his mouth ,
and taught them ,
saying ,
*
Blessed are the poor in spirit :
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven .
*
Blessed are they that mourn :
for they shall be comforted .
*
Blessed are the meek :
for they shall inherit the earth .
*
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness :
for they shall be filled .
*
Blessed are the merciful :
for they shall obtain mercy .
*
Blessed are the pure in heart :
for they shall see God .
*
Blessed are the peacemakers :
for they shall be called the children of God .
*
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness '
sake :
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven .
*
Blessed are ye ,
when men shall revile you ,
and persecute you ,
and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely ,
for my sake .
*
Rejoice ,
and be exceeding glad :
for great is your reward in heaven :
for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you .
