Jesus said in Matthew 5
5:3 "God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for him, for the Kingdom
of Heaven is theirs"
5:4 "God blesses those who mourn,for they will be comforted."
5:5 "God blesses those who are humble, for they will inherit the whole earth"
5:6 "God blesses those who hunger and thirst for justice for theyy will be satisfied"
5:7 "God blesses those who are merciful for they will be shown mercy"
5:8 "God blesses those whose heart is pure/ for they will see God."
5:9 "God blesses those who work for peace, for they will be caller chidren of God"
5:10 "God blesses those "who are persecuted for doing right", for the Kingdom is theirs"
5:11 "God blesses you when people mock you and persecute you lie about you
and say all sorts of evil things against "YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE MY FOLLOWERS" be HAPPY about it! Be very GLAD ! for great reward awaits you
in Heaven, and remember ancient prophets were persecuted in the same way.

Ten Thousand Murdered at God's Command
After Joshua died, the Israelites asked the LORD, "Which tribe should attack the Canaanites first?" The LORD answered, "Judah, for I have given them victory over the land." The leaders of Judah said to their relatives from the tribe of Simeon, "Join with us to fight against the Canaanites living in the territory allotted to us. Then we will help you conquer your territory." So the men of Simeon went with Judah. When the men of Judah attacked, the LORD gave them victory over the Canaanites and Perizzites, and they killed ten thousand enemy warriors at the town of Bezek. While at Bezek they encountered King Adoni-bezek and fought against him, and the Canaanites and Perizzites were defeated. Adoni-bezek escaped, but the Israelites soon captured him and cut off his thumbs and big toes. Adoni-bezek said, "I once had seventy kings with thumbs and big toes cut off, eating scraps from under my table. Now God has paid me back for what I did to them." They took him to Jerusalem, and he died there. The men of Judah attacked Jerusalem and captured it, killing all its people and setting the city on fire. (Judges 1:1-8 NLT)
Murder and Slavery
The tribe of Benjamin, however, failed to drive out the Jebusites, who were living in Jerusalem. So to this day the Jebusites live in Jerusalem among the people of Benjamin. The descendants of Joseph attacked the town of Bethel, and the LORD was with them. They sent spies to Bethel (formerly known as Luz), who confronted a man coming out of the city. They said to him, "Show us a way into the city, and we will have mercy on you." So he showed them a way in, and they killed everyone in the city except for this man and his family. Later the man moved to the land of the Hittites, where he built a city. He named the city Luz, and it is known by that name to this day. The tribe of Manasseh failed to drive out the people living in Beth-shan, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, Megiddo, and their surrounding villages, because the Canaanites were determined to stay in that region.
When the Israelites grew stronger, they forced the Canaanites to work as slaves, but they never did drive them out of the land. The tribe of Ephraim also failed to drive out the Canaanites living in Gezer, and so the Canaanites continued to live there among them. The tribe of Zebulun also failed to drive out the Canaanites living in Kitron and Nahalol, who continued to live among them. But they forced them to work as slaves. The tribe of Asher also failed to drive out the residents of Acco, Sidon, Ahlab, Aczib, Helbah, Aphik, and Rehob. In fact, because they did not drive them out, the Canaanites dominated the land where the people of Asher lived. The tribe of Naphtali also failed to drive out the residents of Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath. Instead, the Canaanites dominated the land where they lived. Nevertheless, the people of Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath were sometimes forced to work as slaves for the people of Naphtali. As for the tribe of Dan, the Amorites forced them into the hill country and would not let them come down into the plains. The Amorites were determined to stay in Mount Heres, Aijalon, and Shaalbim, but when the descendants of Joseph became stronger, they forced the Amorites to work as slaves. (Judges 1:21-35 NLT)
God Will Kill Everyone
"I will sweep away everything in all your land," says the LORD. "I will sweep away both people and animals alike. Even the birds of the air and the fish in the sea will die. I will reduce the wicked to heaps of rubble, along with the rest of humanity," says the LORD. "I will crush Judah and Jerusalem with my fist and destroy every last trace of their Baal worship. I will put an end to all the idolatrous priests, so that even the memory of them will disappear. For they go up to their roofs and bow to the sun, moon, and stars. They claim to follow the LORD, but then they worship Molech, too. So now I will destroy them! And I will destroy those who used to worship me but now no longer do. They no longer ask for the LORD's guidance or seek my blessings." (Zephaniah 1:2-6 NLT)
God is "jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control freak; a vindictive, bloody thirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully" to quote Richard Dawkins.

You are right on target Jerry!
Matthew 5
1And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
2And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
3Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
7Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
8Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
10Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
13Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
14Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Pseudo-christians tend to use pseudo-bibles! 
I thought that words were not to be added or deleted. But even if that were somehow to be allowed, the meaning should never be changed.
Whatever bible this dude is using has change the message.
We be jammin' !

Kingleo,
Please note that Jesus never said that we must accept him as god and savior. Nowhere in the bible does Jesus state anything about being god or our savior.
Peace

Cripes, I can see that KingLeo never read or saw Godspell. 
PS When did revisionists rewrite the Bible? I must have missed something along the way. I know I'm really old and outdated, but know that those sure weren't the Beatitudes I learned as a kid.

And while we're on cultural references to the Sermon on the Mount, let us not forget Life of Brian and its "Blessed are the cheesemakers? What's so special about cheesemakers?"

Well, guys, I hate to burst any bubbles in here, but the new versions of the Bible are much more accurate and much more understandable than the KJV.
I haven't made cheese, but have made wine before.

Bev,
Well, guys, I hate to burst any bubbles in here, but the new versions of the Bible are much more accurate and much more understandable than the KJV. I have been saying that all along. Christians just keep rewriting the bible to say what they want it to say. They couldn't understand the message, so they rewrote it based on their feeble understanding. Now it makes perfect sense to christian dogma's delusional believers, but to everyone else it is a book of myths and folklore that lost its message long ago.
Peace

Thanks kingleo for a few words of encouragement.Nevermind which bible they came from,thats not the point.The point is to look at the good of the Beatitudes you provided in its simple form and put them to use for mankind...whether or not you care for blessings from God.
