人若因我辱骂你们,逼迫你们,捏造各样坏话毁谤你们,你们就有福了。Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
应当欢喜快乐,因为你们在天上的赏赐是大的。在你们以前的先知,人也是这样逼迫他们。Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
你们是世上的盐。盐若失了味,怎能叫他再咸呢。以后无用,不过丢在外面,被人践踏了。Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
人点灯,不放在斗底下,是放在灯台上,就照亮一家的人。Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
你们的光也当这样照在人前,叫他们看见你们的好行为,便将荣耀归给你们在天上的父。Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
