And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation.
5
And he said to them: Which of you shall have a friend and shall go to him at midnight and shall say to him: Friend, lend me three loaves,
6
Because a friend of mine is come off his journey to me and I have not what to set before him.
7
And he from within should answer and say: Trouble me not; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I cannot rise and give thee.
8
Yet if he shall continue knocking, I say to you, although he will not rise and give him because he is his friend; yet, because of his importunity, he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.
9
And I say to you: Ask, and it shall be given you: seek, and you shall find: knock, and it shall be opened to you.
10
For every one that asketh receiveth: and he that seeketh findeth: and to him that knocketh it shall be opened:
11
And which of you, if he ask his father bread, will he give him a stone? Or a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?
12
Or if he shall ask an egg, will he reach him a scorpion?
13
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father from heaven give the good Spirit to them that ask him?

And he was casting out a devil: and the same was dumb. And when he had cast out the devil, the dumb spoke: and the multitudes, were in admiration at it.
