9. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
10. Blessed are those who endure persecution for the sake of justice, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11. Blessed are you when they have slandered you, and persecuted you, and spoken all kinds of evil against you, falsely, for my sake:
12. be glad and exult, for your reward in heaven is plentiful. For so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
