Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass away from the law, till all things be accomplished.

And seeing the multitudes, he went up into the mountain: and when he had sat down, his disciples came unto him:

Even so let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

Blessed are they that have been persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

and he opened his mouth and taught them, saying,

Ye are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid.

but I say unto you, that every one who is angry with his brother shall be in danger of the judgment; and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council; and whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of the hell of fire.

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Neither do `men' light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the stand; and it shineth unto all that are in the house.

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called sons of God.

Think not that I came to destroy the law or the prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfil.

Ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:

Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under foot of men.

For I say unto you, that except your righteousness shall exceed `the righteousness' of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

And if thy right hand causeth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not thy whole body go into hell.

but I say unto you, that every one that putteth away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, maketh her an adulteress: and whosoever shall marry her when she is put away committeth adultery.

It was said also, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:

Verily I say unto thee, thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou have paid the last farthing.

And if thy right eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell.

but I say unto you, that every one that looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.

Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy:

But let your speech be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: and whatsoever is more than these is of the evil `one'.

that ye may be sons of your Father who is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust.

And whosoever shall compel thee to go one mile, go with him two.

but I say unto you, swear not at all; neither by the heaven, for it is the throne of God;

Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, for thou canst not make one hair white or black.

Ye have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:

For if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

And if any man would go to law with thee, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.

but I say unto you, resist not him that is evil: but whosoever smiteth thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.

but I say unto you, love your enemies, and pray for them that persecute you;

Again, ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more `than others?' do not even the Gentiles the same?

Ye therefore shall be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
