Based on the passage from Matthew 5:1-5, Jesus values humility and spiritual richness over material ambition or prosperity. The Beatitudes, which include blessings for the "poor in spirit," those who mourn, and the meek, emphasize qualities like humility, compassion, and the understanding of one's spiritual state.

Therefore, the correct response that aligns with the values expressed in the passage is **equality**, as the blessings highlight the inherent dignity and value of those who are often marginalized or in suffering.
