Matthew 7:11

The Sermon On The Mount: Ask, Seek, Knock

¹⁰ Or, a fish also, shall ask, - a serpent, will give him? ¹¹ If then, ye, being, evil, know how, good gifts, to be giving unto your children, how much more, will, your Father who is in the heavens, give good things to them that ask, him? ¹² Whatsoever things, therefore, ye would, that men be doing unto you, so, be, ye also, doing, unto them, - for, this, is the law and the prophets.
