7"Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened to you.
8For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
9Or what man is there of you, who, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone?
10Or if he asks for a fish, who will give him a serpent?
11If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!
12Therefore whatever you desire for men to do to you, you shall also do to them; for this is the law and the prophets.
13Enter in by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter in by it.
