The angel came to her and said, Rejoice, O Graced One! The Lord is with you; blessed are you among women. But when she saw him, she was confused by his words and wondered what kind of greeting that would be. And the angel said to her, Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found grace with God; and behold, you will conceive in the womb, and bear a son, and you will call his name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father; and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and his kingdom will have no end.

Here are the nine commandments of bliss, which the Savior gave as a guide to the Christian feat on the Mount of Beatitudes:

1. Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
2. Blessed are those who weep, for they shall be comforted.
3. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
4. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for truth, for they shall be satisfied.
5. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.
6. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
7. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
8. Blessed are the exiled for righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
9. Blessed are you when they revile you and persecute you and curse me in every way unjustly. Rejoice and rejoice, for your reward in heaven is great; so did the prophets who were before you.
