Gospel According To Matthew
In this way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Nor does anyone light a lamp, and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.
You are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hidden.
You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt becomes tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out to be trampled by men.
Rejoice and be glad, for great is your reward in heaven; for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Blessed are you when they insult and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil words against you falsely, for my sake.
Blessed are those who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy.
