⁴ “Blessed [forgiven, refreshed by God’s grace] are those who mourn [over their sins and repent], for they will be comforted [when the burden of sin is lifted].^(B)

⁵ “Blessed [inwardly peaceful, spiritually secure, worthy of respect] are the ^[a]gentle [the kind-hearted, the sweet-spirited, the self-controlled], for they will inherit the earth.^(C)
