Matt. v.

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is
the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are they that mourn, for they
shall be comforted.

Blessed are the meek, for they shall in-
herit the earth.

Blessed are they which do hunger and
thirst after righteousness, for they shall be
filled.

Blessed are the merciful, for they shall
obtain mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they
shall see God.

Blessed are the peace-makers, for they
shall be called the children of God.

Blessed are they which are persecuted for
righteousness’ sake; for theirs is the king-
dom of heaven.
