Lucas 11:7

Listen to Lucas 11:7
7 Y el que está adentro le contesta: “No me molestes. Ya está cerrada la puerta, y mis hijos y yo estamos acostados. No puedo levantarme a darte nada”.

Lucas 11:7 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 11:7

And he from within shall answer and say
The friend within doors, shall reply to him that is without at his door, in the street:

trouble me not;
by knocking at the door, and importuning to rise and lend loaves; whereby his rest would be disturbed, and trouble given him;

the door is now shut;
being very late at night, and which could not be opened without noise and inconvenience:

and my children are with me in bed:
sleeping, as the Persic version adds; there were none, children, or servants up, to let him in:

I cannot rise;
without disturbing them:

and give thee;
the loaves desired.

Lucas 11:7 In-Context

5 »Supongamos —continuó— que uno de ustedes tiene un amigo, y a medianoche va y le dice: “Amigo, préstame tres panes,
6 pues se me ha presentado un amigo recién llegado de viaje, y no tengo nada que ofrecerle”.
7 Y el que está adentro le contesta: “No me molestes. Ya está cerrada la puerta, y mis hijos y yo estamos acostados. No puedo levantarme a darte nada”.
8 Les digo que, aunque no se levante a darle pan por ser amigo suyo, sí se levantará por su impertinencia y le dará cuanto necesite.
9 »Así que yo les digo: Pidan, y se les dará; busquen, y encontrarán; llamen, y se les abrirá la puerta.
