58 And blessed are ye when men shall revile you, and persecute, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake,
59 For ye shall have great joy and be exceeding glad, for great shall be your reward in heaven; for so persecuted they the prophets who were before you.
60 Verily, verily I say unto you, I give unto you to be the salt of the earth; but if the salt shall lose its savor, wherewith shall the earth be salted? The salt shall be thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
61 Verily, verily I say unto you, I give unto you to be the light of this people. A city that is set on a hill can not be hid.
62 Behold, do men light a candle and put it under a bushel? Nay, but on a candlestick, and it giveth light to all that are in the house;
63 Therefore let your light so shine before this people, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
64 Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the prophets. I am not come to destroy but to fulfill;
65 For verily I say unto you, One jot nor one tittle hath not passed away from the law, but in me it hath all been fulfilled.
66 And behold I have given you the law and the commandments of my Father, that ye shall believe in me, and that ye shall repent of your sins, and come unto me with a broken heart and a contrite spirit.
67 Behold, ye have the commandments before you, and the law is fulfilled; therefore come unto me and be ye saved;
68 For verily I say unto you, that except ye shall keep my commandments, which I have commanded you at this time, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
