6Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast your pearls before the swine, lest haply they trample them under their feet, and turn and rend you.

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, who, if his son shall ask him for a loaf, will give him a stone;

10or if he shall ask for a fish, will give him a serpent?

11If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

12All things therefore whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, even so do ye also unto them: for this is the law and the prophets.
