And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain, and when he was set down, his disciples came unto him. And opening his mouth, he taught them, saying:
<\/a>
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. <\/i>
Blessed are the meek: for they shall possess the land. <\/i>
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.<\/i>
Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after justice: for they shall have their fill.<\/i>
Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. <\/i>
Blessed are the clean of heart: for they shall see God. <\/i>
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called children of God. <\/i>
Blessed are they that suffer persecution for justice\u2019 sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.<\/i><\/p>\n

Blessed are ye when they shall revile you, and persecute you, and speak all that is evil against you, untruly, for my sake: Be glad and rejoice, for your reward is very great in heaven. For so they persecuted the prophets that were before you. <\/i><\/p>\n

You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savor, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men. You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house.<\/i><\/p>\n

So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.<\/i><\/p>\n
