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. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden

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

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.

But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you

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

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

“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

“Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.

“Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

“Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.

“You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.

Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

But let your statement be, ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no’; anything beyond these is of evil.

“You have heard that it was said, ‘AN EYE FOR AN EYE, AND A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH.’ But I say to you, do not resist an evil person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.

If your right eye makes you stumble, tear it out and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. If your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to go into hell.
