The beatitudes present in Matthew's Gospel are given in the Sermon on the Mount, early in the ministry of Jesus:

  • The poor in spirit; theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
  • Mourners; they will be comforted.
  • Those that hunger and thirst after righteousness; they will be filled.
  • Those persecuted for seeking righteousness; theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
  • The meek; they will inherit the earth.
  • The merciful; they will obtain mercy.
  • The pure of heart; they will "see God".
  • The peacemakers; they will be called "the sons of God".

According to Matthew the Lord's Prayer was also taught to the 5000 during the Sermon on the Mount.

The beatitudes present in the Gospel of Luke are given by Jesus in the Sermon on the Plain:

  • The poor; theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
  • Those who are weeping"; they "will laugh".
  • The hungry; they will be satisfied.
  • Followers of the Son of Man; theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

According to Luke, the Lord's Prayer was taught to the disciples "at a certain place", but apparently soon after the Sermon on the Plain. The four beatitudes more or less common to Matthew and Luke, and the Lord's prayer are believed to have been copied from the hypothetical 'Q' document. The other four beatitudes in Matthew have close parallels in the Old Testament.
