His Preaching and Miracles throughout Galilee
23 Then Jesus travelled through all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom, and curing every kind of disease and infirmity among the people. 24 Thus His fame spread through all Syria; and they brought all the sick to Him, the people who were suffering from various diseases and pains—demoniacs, epileptics, paralytics; and He cured them. 25 And great crowds followed Him, coming from Galilee, from the Ten Towns, from Jerusalem, and from beyond the district on the other side of the Jordan.
5 1 Seeing the multitude of people, Jesus went up the Hill. There He seated Himself, and when His disciples came to Him, 2 He proceeded to teach them, and said:
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens.
4 “Blessed are the mourners, for they will be comforted.
5 “Blessed are the meek, for they as heirs will obtain possession of the earth.
6 “Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be completely satisfied.
7 “Blessed are the compassionate, for they will receive compassion.
8 “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
9 “Blessed are the peacemakers, for it is they who will be recognized as sons of God.
10 “Blessed are they who have borne persecution in the cause of righteousness, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens.
11 ‘Blessed are you when they have insulted and persecuted you, and have said every cruel thing about you falsely for my sake. 12 Be joyful and triumphant, because your reward is great in the Heavens; for so were the Prophets before you persecuted.
13 “You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has become tasteless, in what way can it regain its saltness? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown away and trodden on by the passers by. 14 You are the light of the world; a town cannot be hid if built on a hill-top. 15 Nor is a lamp lighted to be put under a bushel, but on the lampstand; and then it gives light to all in the house. 16 Just so let your light shine before all men, in order that they may see your holy lives and may give glory to your Father who is in Heaven.
17 “Do not for a moment suppose that I have come to abrogate the Law or the Prophets: I have not come to abrogate them but to give them their completion. 18 Solemnly I tell you that until heaven and earth pass away, not one iota or smallest detail will pass away from the Law until all has taken place. 19 Whoever therefore breaks one of these least commandments and teaches others to break them, will be called the least in the Kingdom of the Heavens; but whoever practises them and teaches them, he will be acknowledged as great in the Kingdom of the Heavens. 20 For I assure you that unless your righteousness greatly surpasses that of the Scribes and Pharisees, you will certainly not find entrance into the Kingdom of the Heavens.
21 “You have heard that it was said to the ancients, ‘Thou shalt not commit murder (Exod. 20:13), and whoever commits murder will be answerable to the magistrate.’ 22 But I say to you that every one who becomes angry with his brother shall be answerable to the magistrate; that whoever says to his brother ‘Raca,’ shall be answerable to the Sanhedrin; and that whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be liable to the Gehenna of Fire. 23 If therefore when you are offering your gift upon the altar, you remember that your brother has a grievance against you, 24 leave your gift there before the altar, and go and make friends with your brother first, and then return and proceed to offer your gift. 25 Come to terms without delay with your opponent while you are yet with him on the way to the court; for fear he should obtain judgement from the magistrate against you, and the magistrate should give you in custody to the officer and you be thrown into prison. 26 I solemnly tell you that you will certainly not be released till you have paid the very last farthing.
