Selig sind, die da Leid tragen, denn sie sollen getröstet werden. Die mit Tränen säen, werden mit Freuden ernten. Sie gehen hin und weinen und tragen edlen Samen, und kommen mit Freuden und bringen ihre Garben.

Beati quelli che soffrono, perché saranno confortati. Quelli che seminano piangendo, Mieteranno con gioia. Essi se ne vanno in pianto Recando con sé la semente feconda, ritorneranno con gioia, portando il loro raccolto.
