1 And it was in his being in a certain place praying, when he ceased, a certain of his disciples said to him Lord, teach us to pray, as John also -taught his disciples.
2 And he said to them, When ye pray, say, Our Father he in the heavens, Holy be thy name. Let thy kingdom come. Let thy will be, as in heaven, also upon the earth.
3 Give us our bread sufficient for sustenance by the day.
4 And remit to us our sins; for we onrselves also remit to every one indebted to us. 'And bring us not into temptation; but deliver us from the evil.
5 And he said to them, Which. of you shall have a friend, and shall-go to him at midnight, and should say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves;
6 Since my friend has come to me from the way, and I have not what I may set before him!
7 And he within, having.answered, should say, Offer not weariness to me already has the door been shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot having risen, give thee.
8 I say to you, If also having risen he will not give him because of being his friend, yet for his effrontery, having risen, he will give him as many as he needs.
9 And I say ' to you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you.
10 For every one asking, receives; and he seeking, finds; and to him knocking, it shall be opened. .
11 And shall a son ask bread of any of you a father, will he give him a stone ? and if a fish, for a fish he will not give him a serpent.
12 Or also if he ask an egg, he will not give him a scorpion.
13 If then ye, being evil, know to give good gifts to your children; how much more the Father, be from heaven, will give the Holy Spirit to them asking him ?
