Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, 2 and he began to teach them.

He said:

3

“Blessed are the poor in spirit,

for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4

Blessed are those who mourn,

for they will be comforted.

5

Blessed are the meek,

for they will inherit the earth.

6

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,

for they will be filled.

7

Blessed are the merciful,

for they will be shown mercy.

8

Blessed are the pure in heart,

for they will see God.
