Matthew 5:10-12
EasyEnglish Bible
10 Happy are the people who do what is right but other people hurt them because of it.
The kingdom of heaven belongs to people like that.
11 Yes, happy are you when people say bad things against you because you believe in me. Or they may hurt you. Or they may say things about you that are not true. 12 God is preparing many good things for you in heaven. So you should be very happy when people do these bad things to any of you. People did these same things to God's prophets who lived long ago.’
