7Ask, and it shall be
given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:  8For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that
seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.  9Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give
him a stone?  10Or if he ask a fish, will
he give him a serpent?  11If ye then,
being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in
heaven give good things to them that ask him? (Matthew
7:7-11, King James
Version)
