Matthew 7:11

The Sermon On The Mount: Ask, Seek, Knock

¹⁰ And if he ask a fish, he will not give him a serpent? ¹¹ If ye, therefore, being evil, know to give good gifts to your children how much more will your Father which is in the heavens give good things to those asking him? ¹² Therefore all whatever ye would that men should do to you, so also do ye to them; for this is the law and the prophets.
