Matthew 7:6-12

6GiveG1325 not that which is holyG40 to the dogsG2965, nor castG906 your pearlsG3135 before the swine, lestG3361 they trampleG2662 them with their feetG4228, and turningG4762 round rend you.

7AskG154, and it shall be givenG1325 to you. SeekG2212, and ye shall findG2147. KnockG2925, and it shall be openedG455 to you.

8For every oneG3588 that asksG154 receivesG2983; and he that seeksG2212 findsG2147; and to him that knocksG2925 it shall be openedG455.

9Or what manG444 isG1510 there of you who, if his sonG5207 shall askG154 of him a loafG740 of breadG740, will giveG1929 him a stoneG3037;

10and if he askG154 a fishG2486, will giveG1929 him a serpentG3789?

11If thereforeG3767 ye, beingG1510 wickedG4190, know [howG4214] to giveG1325 goodG18 giftsG1390 to your childrenG5043, howG4214 muchG4214 ratherG3123 shall your FatherG3962 who isG1510 in the heavensG3772 giveG1325 goodG18 thingsG18 to them that askG154 of him?

12ThereforeG3767 all thingsG3778 whatever ye desireG2309 that menG444 should do to you, thus do ye alsoG2532 do to them; for this isG1510 the lawG3551 and the prophetsG4396.
