14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;

15 nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light  

    to all who are in the house.

16 Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify

    your Father who is in heaven.”

1 When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples        

   came to Him.

2 He opened His mouth and began to teach them, saying,

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

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

5 “Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.

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

7 “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.

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

9 “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.

10 “Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the   

    kingdom of heaven.

11 “Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil

    against you because of Me.

12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted

    the prophets who were before you.

13 “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty

    again?  It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by

    men.”
