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.
