⁸ “Blessed are ^(A)the pure in heart, for ^(B)they shall see God.

^12 (A)The one who conquers, I will make him ^(B)a pillar in the temple of my God. Never shall he go out of it, and I will write on him ^(C)the name of my God, and ^(D)the name of the city of my God, ^(E)the new Jerusalem, ^(F)which comes down from my God out of heaven, and my own ^(G)new name.

^14 (A)Strive for peace with everyone, and for the ^(B)holiness ^(C)without which no one will see the Lord.
