* * For a friende of mine is come out of the way to me , &amp ; I haue nothing to set before him : * And hee within shoulde answere , and say , Trouble mee not : the doore is nowe shut , and my children are with mee in bed : I can not rise and giue them to thee . * I say unto you , Though he will not rise and give him , because he is his friend , yet because of his (note :)Literally , «impudence »: but that impudency which is spoken of here is not to be found fault with , but is very commendable before God , for he is well pleased by such importunity .(:note ) importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth . * And I say vnto you , Aske , and it shall be giuen you : seeke , and yee shall finde : knocke , and it shalbe opened vnto you . * For euery one that asketh , receiueth : and he that seeketh , findeth : &amp ; to him that knocketh , it shalbe opened . * If a sonne shall aske bread of any of you that is a father , will he giue him a stone ? Or if hee aske a fish , will he for a fish giue him a serpent ? * Or if hee aske an egge , will hee giue him a scorpion ? * If yee then which are euill , can giue good giftes vnto your children , howe much more shall your heauenly Father giue the holy Ghost to them , that desire him ?
