"Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they who mourn,
for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they
shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for
righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Blessed are the
merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
Blessed are the pure of
heart, for they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they shall be called children of God.
Blessed are they who are
persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of
heaven."
