Matthew 5:1
And
seeing
the
multitudes,
he went
up
into
a
mountain:
and
when
he
was
set,
his
disciples
came
unto
him:
2
And
he
opened
his
mouth,
and
taught
them,
saying,
3
Blessed
are the
poor
in
spirit:
for
theirs
is
the
kingdom
of
heaven.
4
Blessed
are they that
mourn:
for
they
shall be
comforted.
5
Blessed
are the
meek:
for
they
shall
inherit
the
earth.
6
Blessed
are they
which
do
hunger
and
thirst
after
righteousness:
for
they
shall be
filled.
7
Blessed
are the
merciful:
for
they
shall obtain
mercy.
8
Blessed
are the
pure
in
heart:
for
they
shall
see
God.
9
Blessed
are the
peacemakers:
for
they
shall be
called
the
children
of
God.
10
Blessed
are they which are
persecuted
for
righteousness'
sake:
for
theirs
is
the
kingdom
of
heaven.
11
Blessed
are
ye,
when
men shall
revile
you,
and
persecute
you,
and
shall
say
all
manner
of
evil
°
against
you
falsely,
for my
sake.
12
Rejoice,
and
be exceeding
glad:
for
great
is
your
reward
in
heaven:
for
so
persecuted
they
the
prophets
which
were
before
you.
13
Ye
are
the
salt
of the
earth:
but
if
the
salt
have lost his
savour,
wherewith
shall
it be
salted?
it is
thenceforth
good
for
nothing,
but
to be
cast
out,
and
to be trodden under
foot
of
men.
14
Ye
are
the
light
of the
world.
A
city
that is
set
on
an
hill
cannot
°
be
hid.
15
Neither
do men
light
a
candle,
and
put
it
under
a
bushel,
but
on
a
candlestick;
and
it giveth
light
unto
all
that are
in
the
house.
16
Let
your
light
so
shine
before
men,
that
they may
see
your
good
works,
and
glorify
your
Father
which
is
in
heaven.
17
Think
not
that
I am
come
to
destroy
the
law,
or
the
prophets:
I
am
not
come
to
destroy,
but
to
fulfil.
18
For
verily
I
say
unto
you,
Till
°
heaven
and
earth
pass,
one
jot
or
one
tittle
shall in no
wise
pass
from
the
law,
till
°
all
be
fulfilled.
19
Whosoever
°
therefore
shall
break
one
of
these
least
commandments,
and
shall
teach
men
so,
he shall be
called
the
least
in
the
kingdom
of
heaven:
but
whosoever
shall
do
and
teach
them, the
same
shall be
called
great
in
the
kingdom
of
heaven.
20
For
I
say
unto
you,
That
except
your
righteousness
shall
exceed
°
the righteousness of the
scribes
and
Pharisees,
ye shall in no
case
enter
into
the
kingdom
of
heaven.
21
Ye have
heard
that
it was
said
by them of old
time,
Thou
shalt
not
kill;
and
whosoever
shall
kill
shall
be
in
danger
of the
judgment:
22
But
I
say
unto
you,
That
whosoever
is
angry
with
his
brother
without a
cause
shall
be
in
danger
of the
judgment:
and
whosoever
shall
say
to
his
brother,
Raca,
shall
be
in
danger
of the
council:
but
whosoever
shall
say,
Thou
fool,
shall
be
in
danger
of
hell
fire.
23
Therefore
if
thou
bring
thy
gift
to
the
altar,
and
there
rememberest
that
thy
brother
hath
ought
against
thee;
24
Leave
there
thy
gift
before
the
altar,
and
go thy
way;
first
be
reconciled
to
thy
brother,
and
then
come
and
offer
thy
gift.
25
Agree
°
with
thine
adversary
quickly,
whiles
thou
art
in
the
way
with
him;
lest at any
time
the
adversary
deliver
thee
to the
judge,
and
the
judge
deliver
thee
to the
officer,
and
thou be
cast
into
prison.
26
Verily
I
say
unto
thee,
Thou
shalt
by no
means
come
out
thence,
till
thou
hast
paid
the
uttermost
farthing.
27
Ye have
heard
that
it was
said
by them of old
time,
Thou
shalt
not
commit
adultery:
28
But
I
say
unto
you,
That
whosoever
looketh
on a
woman
to
lust
after
her
hath committed
adultery
with
her
already
in
his
heart.
29
And
if
thy
right
eye
offend
thee,
pluck
it
out,
and
cast
it
from
thee:
for
it is
profitable
for
thee
that
one
of
thy
members
should
perish,
and
not
that
thy
whole
body
should be
cast
into
hell.
30
And
if
thy
right
hand
offend
thee,
cut
it
off,
and
cast
it
from
thee:
for
it is
profitable
for
thee
that
one
of
thy
members
should
perish,
and
not
that
thy
whole
body
should be
cast
into
hell.
31
It
hath been
said,
Whosoever
shall
put
away
his
wife,
let
him give
her
a
writing of divorcement:
32
But
I
say
unto
you,
That
whosoever
shall
put
away
his
wife,
saving
for the
cause
of
fornication,
causeth
her
to commit
adultery:
and
whosoever
shall
marry
her that is
divorced
committeth
adultery.
33
Again,
ye have
heard
that
it hath been
said
by them of old
time,
Thou
shalt
not
forswear
thyself,
but
shalt
perform
unto the
Lord
thine
oaths:
34
But
I
say
unto
you,
Swear
not
at
all;
neither
by
heaven;
for
it
is
God's
throne:
35
Nor
by
the
earth;
for
it
is
his
footstool:
neither
by
Jerusalem;
for
it
is
the
city
of
the great
King.
36
Neither
shalt thou
swear
by
thy
head,
because
thou
canst
not
make
one
hair
white
or
black.
37
But
let
your
communication
be,
Yea,
yea;
Nay,
nay:
for
whatsoever is
more
than
these
cometh
of
evil.
38
Ye have
heard
that
it hath been
said,
An
eye
for
an
eye,
and
a
tooth
for
a
tooth:
39
But
I
say
unto
you,
That ye
resist
not
evil:
but
whosoever
shall
smite
thee
on
thy
right
cheek,
turn
to
him
the
other
also.
40
And
if any man
will
sue
thee
at the
law,
and
take
away
thy
coat,
let
him
have
thy
cloak
also.
41
And
whosoever
shall
compel
thee
to
go
a
mile,
go
with
him
twain.
42
Give
to him that
asketh
thee,
and
from him that
would
borrow
of
thee
turn
not
thou
away.
43
Ye have
heard
that
it hath been
said,
Thou shalt
love
thy
neighbour,
and
hate
thine
enemy.
44
But
I
say
unto
you,
Love
your
enemies,
bless
them that
curse
you,
do
good
to them that
hate
you,
and
pray
for
them
which
despitefully
use
you,
and
persecute
you;
45
That
ye may
be
the
children
of
your
Father
which
is
in
heaven:
for
he
maketh
his
sun
to
rise
on
the
evil
and
on the
good,
and
sendeth
rain
on
the
just
and
on the
unjust.
46
For
if
ye
love
them
which
love
you,
what
reward
have
ye?
do
not
even
the
publicans
the
same?
47
And
if
ye
salute
your
brethren
only,
what
do
ye
more
than others?
do
not
even
the
publicans
so?
48
Be
ye
therefore
perfect,
even
as
your
Father
which
is
in
heaven
is
perfect.
