St MATTHEW


New Testament, Gospel - Pater Noster / The Lord’s Prayer


Pater noster, qui es in caelis,

sanctificetur Nomen Tuum;

adveniat Regnum Tuum;

fiat voluntas Tua,

sicut in caelo, et in terra.

Panem nostrum cotidianum da nob is hodie;

et dimitte nobis debita nostra,

sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris;

et ne nos inducas in tentationem;

sed libera nos a Malo.

Amen.


Our Father, which art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name;

thy kingdom come;

thy will be done,

in earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive them that trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation;

but deliver us from evil.

Amen.




Sermon on the Mount / Bergrede




Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.

Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons[a] of God.

Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven.



Zalig de armen van geest, want aan hen behoort het Rijk der hemelen.

Zalig de treurenden, want zij zullen getroost worden.

Zalig de zachtmoedigen, want zij zullen het land bezitten.

Zalig die hongeren en dorsten naar de gerechtigheid, want zij zullen verzadigd worden.

Zalig de barmhartigen, want zij zullen barmhartigheid ondervinden.

Zalig de zuiveren van hart, want zij zullen God zien.

Zalig die vrede brengen, want zij zullen kinderen van God genoemd worden.

Zalig die vervolgd worden om de gerechtigheid, want hun behoort het Rijk der hemelen.

Zalig zijt gij, wanneer men u beschimpt, vervolgt en lasterlijk van allerlei kwaad beschimpt om Mijnentwil: verheugt u en juicht, want groot is uw loon in de hemel.
