"Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven
Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted
Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness for they shall be filled
Blessed are the merciful for they shall be shown mercy
Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God
Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called children of God
Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven
Blessed are you when men shall revile you and persecute you and shall say all manner of evil against you for my sake
Rejoice! Rejoice and be glad for great is your reward in Heaven"
