10God blesses those who are persecuted because they live for God, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs. 11"God blesses you when you are mocked and persecuted and lied about because you are my followers. 12Be happy about it! Be very glad! For a great reward awaits you in heaven. And remember, the ancient prophets were persecuted, too.
