Luke 11:9-13

Rotherham(i) 9 I, therefore, unto you, say––Be asking, and it shall be given to you, Be seeking, and ye shall find,––Be knocking, and it shall be opened unto you. 10 For, whosoever asketh, receiveth, and, he that seeketh, findeth,––and, to him that knocketh, shall it be opened. 11 But which is the father, from among yourselves, whom the son will ask for, a fish, who, instead of a fish, will give him, a serpent? 12 Or shall also ask, an egg, who will give him, a scorpion? 13 If therefore, ye, being, evil, know how to be giving, good gifts, unto your children, how much rather, will, the heavenly Father, give Holy Spirit unto them that ask him!
