1  Bow down thine ear, O Lord, hear me: for I am ^bpoor and needy.

  13  Better is a ^apoor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who will no more be admonished.

  3  Blessed are the ^bpoor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

  18  But blessed are the ^apoor who are pure in heart, whose hearts are broken, and whose spirits are contrite, for they shall see the kingdom of God coming in power and great glory unto their deliverance; for the fatness of the earth shall be theirs.

  28  Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
