Luke 11:8-12

⁸'I say to you, even if he will not give to him, having risen, because of his being his friend, yet because of his importunity, having risen, he will give him as many as he doth need;

⁹and I say to you, Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you;

¹⁰for every one who is asking doth receive; and he who is seeking doth find; and to him who is knocking it shall be opened.

¹¹'And of which of you — the father — if the son shall ask a loaf, a stone will he present to him? and if a fish, will he instead of a fish, a serpent present to him?

¹²and if he may ask an egg, will he present to him a scorpion?
