Luke 11:5-9

5ThenG2532 Jesus saidG2036 toG4314 themG846, “Suppose one ofG1537 youG4771 goesG4198 toG4314 his friendG5384 at midnightG3317 andG2532 saysG2036G846, ‘FriendG5384, lendG5531 meG1473 threeG5140 loavesG740 of bread, 6becauseG1894 a friendG5384 of mineG1473 has comeG3854 toG4314 meG1473 onG1537 a journeyG3598, andG2532 I haveG2192 nothingG3756 to set beforeG3908 himG846.’

7AndG2548 suppose the one insideG2081 answersG611G2036, ‘Do notG3361 botherG3930G2873 meG1473. My doorG2374 is alreadyG2235 shutG2808, andG2532 myG1473 childrenG3813 andG3326 IG1473 areG1510 inG1519 bedG2845. I cannotG3756G1410 get upG450 to giveG1325 youG4771 anything.’

8I tellG3004 youG4771, evenG2532 thoughG1487 he will not get upG3756G450 to provideG1325 for himG846 because ofG1223 hisG846 friendshipG3588G1510G5384, yetG1065 because ofG1223 the man’s persistenceG335, he will get upG1453 and giveG1325 himG846 as much asG3745 he needsG5535.

9So IG2504 tellG3004 youG4771: AskG154, andG2532 it will be givenG1325 to youG4771; seekG2212, andG2532 you will findG2147; knockG2925, andG2532 the door will be openedG455 to youG4771.
