Matthew 5:1-6

11Now when Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on 2the 3mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples came to Him. 2And 4He opened His mouth and began to teach them, saying,

3“56Blessed are the poor in spirit, for 7theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4“Blessed are 8those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

5“Blessed are 9the 10gentle, for they will inherit the earth.

6“Blessed are 11those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.
