Parallel Construction. The Bible is filled with this sort of thing especially in Psalms and Proverbs and in some of the most well known poetry in the New Testament. Here is one of the best examples coming from Matthew 5:3 and forward.

<span>Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. </span>
