Luke 11:1-13 AND it came to pass, while he was praying in a certain place, when he finished, one of his disciples said to him, Our Lord, teach us to pray, just as John also taught his disciples.

Lamsa⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ AND it came to pass, while he was praying in a certain place, when he finished, one of his disciples said to him, Our Lord, teach us to pray, just as John also taught his disciples. ² Jesus said to them, When you pray, say like this, Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Let thy will be done, as in heaven, so on earth. ³ Give us bread for our needs every day. ⁴ And forgive us our sins; for we have also forgiven all who are indebted to us. And do not let us enter into temptation; but deliver us from error. ⁵ And he said to them, Who is among you who has a friend, and he should go to him at midnight, and say to him, My friend, loan me three loaves, ⁶ For a friend has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him. ⁷ Would his friend from inside answer and say to him, Do not trouble me; the door is already locked, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot get up and give you. ⁸ I say to you, that if because of friendship he will not give him, yet because of his persistence, he will rise and give him as much as he wants. ⁹ I say to you also, Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you. ¹⁰ For everyone who asks, receives; and he who seeks, finds; and he who knocks, it is opened to him. ¹¹ For who is among you, a father, if his son should ask him bread, why, would he hand him a stone? and if he should ask him a fish, why, would he hand him a snake instead of a fish? ¹² And if he should ask him for an egg, why, would he hand him a scorpion? ¹³ So if you, who err, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father give the Holy Spirit from heaven to those who ask him?
