Matthew 7:7

The Sermon On The Mount: Ask, Seek, Knock

⁶ Do not give what is holy to the dogs, nor cast your pearls before the swine, lest they trample them by their feet, and having turn back may lacerate you. ⁷ Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and ye will find. Knock, and it will be opened to you. ⁸ For every man who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.
