Luke:11:1-13
isv@Luke:11:1 @ Once Jesus was praying in a certain place. After he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.”
isv@Luke:11:2 @ So he told them,“Whenever you pray you are to say,‘Father,may your name be kept holy.May your kingdom come.
isv@Luke:11:3 @ Keep giving us every day our daily bread,
isv@Luke:11:4 @ and forgive us our sins, as we forgive everyone who sins against us.And never bring us into temptation.’”
isv@Luke:11:5 @ Then he said to them,“Suppose one of you has a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, let me borrow three loaves of bread.
isv@Luke:11:6 @ A friend of mine on a trip has dropped in on me, and I don't have anything to serve him.’
isv@Luke:11:7 @ Suppose he answers from inside, ‘Stop bothering me! The door is already locked, and my children are with me in bed. I can't get up and give you anything!’
isv@Luke:11:8 @ I tell you, even though he doesn't want to get up and give him anything because he is his friend, he will get up and give him whatever he needs because of his persistence.
isv@Luke:11:9 @ So I say to you: Keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep searching, and you will find. Keep knocking, and the doorwill be opened for you.
isv@Luke:11:10 @ For everyone who keeps asking will receive, and the person who keeps searching will find, and the person who keeps knocking will have the dooropened.
isv@Luke:11:11 @ “What father among you, if his son asks for bread, would give him a stone, or if he asks for a fish,would give him a snake instead of the fish?
isv@Luke:11:12 @ Or if he asks for an egg, would he give him a scorpion?
isv@Luke:11:13 @ So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who keep asking him!”
