Matthew 5:10-12

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁰ `Happy those persecuted for righteousness' sake -- because theirs is the reign of the heavens.

¹¹ `Happy are ye whenever they may reproach you, and may persecute, and may say any evil thing against you falsely for my sake --

¹² rejoice ye and be glad, because your reward [is] great in the heavens, for thus did they persecute the prophets who were before you.
