And he [Jesus of Nazareth c. AD 30] opened his mouth and taught them, saying: “Full of life are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Full of life are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Full of life are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Full of life are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. Full of life are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy. Full of life are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Full of life are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. Full of life are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Full of life are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.” Matthew 5: 1-11 | |||||||||||
