Blessed are the poor in spirit

For theirs is the Kingdom of heaven

Blessed are those who mourn

For they will be comforted

Blessed are the meek

For they will inherit the earth

Blessed are those who hunger

And thirst for righteousness

Blessed are the merciful

For they will be shown mercy

Blessed are the pure in heart

For they shall see their God

Blessed are the peacemakers

For they will be called sons of God

Blessed are those who are persecuted

Because of righteousness

For theirs is the Kingdom of heaven

Rejoice and be glad

For great is your reward in Heaven
