Matthew - ch 5 v 1 - 20

  1. And having seen the multitudes, he went up to the mount, and he having sat down, his disciples came to him,
  2. and having opened his mouth, he was teaching them, saying:
  3. `Happy the poor in spirit -- because theirs is the reign of the heavens.
  4. `Happy the mourning -- because they shall be comforted.
  5. `Happy the meek -- because they shall inherit the land.
  6. `Happy those hungering and thirsting for righteousness -- because they shall be filled.
  7. `Happy the kind -- because they shall find kindness.
  8. `Happy the clean in heart -- because they shall see God.
  9. `Happy the peacemakers -- because they shall be called Sons of God.
  10. `Happy those persecuted for righteousness' sake -- because theirs is the reign of the heavens.
  11. `Happy are ye whenever they may reproach you, and may persecute, and may say any evil thing against you falsely for my sake --
  12. rejoice ye and be glad, because your reward `is' great in the heavens, for thus did they persecute the prophets who were before you.
  13. `Ye are the salt of the land, but if the salt may lose savour, in what shall it be salted? for nothing is it good henceforth, except to be cast without, and to be trodden down by men.
  14. `Ye are the light of the world, a city set upon a mount is not able to be hid;
  15. nor do they light a lamp, and put it under the measure, but on the lamp-stand, and it shineth to all those in the house;
  16. so let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and may glorify your Father who `is' in the heavens.
  17. `Do not suppose that I came to throw down the law or the prophets -- I did not come to throw down, but to fulfill;
  18. for, verily I say to you, till that the heaven and the earth may pass away, one iota or one tittle may not pass away from the law, till that all may come to pass.
  19. `Whoever therefore may loose one of these commands -- the least -- and may teach men so, least he shall be called in the reign of the heavens, but whoever may do and may teach `them', he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens.
  20. `For I say to you, that if your righteousness may not abound above that of the scribes and Pharisees, ye may not enter to the reign of the heavens.
