Luke 11:9-13

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

10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father*, will he give* him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give* him a serpent?

12 Or* if he shall ask an egg, will he offer^[a]* him a scorpion?

13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father* give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
