Matthew 5:1-12a
Seeing
the crowds, he went up on the mountain, and when he sat down his disciples came
to him. And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying: "Blessed are the
poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. "Blessed are those
who mourn, for they shall be comforted. "Blessed are the meek, for they
shall inherit the earth. "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for
righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. "Blessed are the merciful, for
they shall obtain mercy. "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall
see God. "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of
God. "Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for
theirs is the kingdom of heaven. "Blessed are you when men revile you and
persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice
and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven

An

God ‘sab an boot ipasabot sa kagutom.
Kaguol

magdaya pasingod sa malipajon na kagawasan gikan sa kabug’at nan mga espiritwal
na opresyon, amo ‘sab ini an boot ipasabot sa kaguol sanan pagtukaw.
Ugsa

bajad nan mga kalis’danan na ato masagubang dinhi sa kalibutan.
