Matthew 5:11-13

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹¹ Blessed are ye when they shall revile you, and persecute you, and speak all that is evil against you, untruly, for my sake:

¹² Be glad and rejoice, for your reward is very great in heaven. For so they persecuted the prophets that were before you.

¹³ You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men.
