8And if he shall dwell still knocking or if he shall continue knocking, I say to you, though he shall not rise, and give to him, for that that he is his friend, nevertheless for his continual asking, he shall rise, and give to him, as many as he hath need to.
9And I say to you, ask ye, and it shall be given to you; seek ye, and ye shall find; knock ye, and it shall be opened to you.
10For each that asketh, taketh, and he that seeketh, findeth; and to a man that knocketh, it shall be opened.
11Therefore who of you asketh his father bread, whether he shall give to him a stone? or if he asketh fish, whether he shall give to him a serpent for the fish?
12or if he asketh an egg, whether he shall areach to him a scorpion?
