Matthew 5:3-5
Easy-to-Read Version
3 “Great blessings belong to those who know they are spiritually in need.[a]
God’s kingdom belongs to them.

God will comfort them.
5 Great blessings belong to those who are humble.
They will be given the land God promised.[b]
Footnotes
- Matthew 5:3 those … in need Literally, “the poor in spirit.”
- Matthew 5:5 They will … promised This is the meaning of these words in Ps. 37:11. Here, they probably refer to a spiritual “promised land,” but they can also mean “The earth will belong to them.”
