Matthew
Chapter 5 Verse 7
Blessed
(are) the merciful for they will receive mercy.
μακάριοι
οἱ ἐλεήμονες ὅτι αὐτοὶ ἐλεηθήσονται.
Read
also Matthew 18: 33 and James 2:13
Quite
straightforward but do note the link between showing and being shown
mercy.
Ἔλεος
the stem of ἐλεήμων merciful and the verb ἐλεέω be
merciful show mercy is not just an attitude but an action ἐλεος
is pity mercy and compassion or as James puts it faith AND works.
Read
the parable in Matthew 18: 33
