Verse
Luke - ch 11 v 1 - 20
- And it came to pass, that as he was in a certain place praying, when he ceased, one of his disciples said to him: Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.
- And he said to them: When you pray, say: Father, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come.
- Give us this day our daily bread.
- And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation.
- 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,
- Because a friend of mine is come off his journey to me, and I have not what to set before him.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.
- 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?
- Or if he shall ask an egg, will he reach him a scorpion?
- 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:
- But some of them said: He casteth out devils by Beelzebub, the prince of devils.
- And others tempting, asked of him a sign from heaven.
- But he seeing their thoughts, said to them: Every kingdom divided against itself, shall be brought to desolation, and house upon house shall fall.
- And if Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because you say, that through Beelzebub I cast out devils.
- Now if I cast out devils by Beelzebub; by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges.
- But if I by the finger of God cast out devils; doubtless the kingdom of God is come upon you.
