Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. (NIV)Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. (KJV)Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. (NASB)
Matthew 5:6CommentaryThis is the opposite of the self-righteousness of the Pharisees. It speaks of those who seek God's righteousness rather than attempting to establish a righteousness of their own (Rom. 10:3; Phil. 3:9). What they seek will fill them, i.e., it will satisfy their hunger and thirst for a right relationship with God.
