Matthew 5:1-6
11When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on 2the 3mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples came to Him. 24He opened His mouth and began to teach them, saying,
3“56Blessed are the 7poor in spirit, for 8theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4“Blessed are 9those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
5“Blessed are 10the 11gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.
6“Blessed are 12those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
