45 And behold he stretched forth his hand unto the multitude, and cried unto them, saying, Blessed are ye if ye shall give heed unto the words of these twelve whom I have chosen from among you to minister unto you, and to be your servants;
46 And unto them I have given power, that they may baptize you with water, and after that ye are baptized with water, behold I will baptize you with fire and with the Holy Ghost;
47 Therefore blessed are ye, if ye shall believe in me, and be baptized, after that ye have seen me, and know that I am.
48 And again, more blessed are they who shall believe in your words, because that ye shall testify that ye have seen me, and that ye know that I am.
49 Yea, blessed are they who shall believe in your words, and come down into the depths of humility, and be baptized; for they shall be visited with fire and with the Holy Ghost, and shall receive a remission of their sins.
50 Yea, blessed are the poor in spirit who come unto me, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
51 And again, blessed are all they that mourn, for they shall be comforted;
52 And blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
53 And blessed are all they who do hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled with the Holy Ghost.
54 And blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
55 And blessed are all the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
