Lukas 11:9-13

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁹ And I tell you [when you daven], ask, and it shall be given to you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you.

¹⁰ For everyone asking receives; and he who is seeking, finds; and to the one knocking, it shall be opened.

¹¹ And what Abba among you is there who, if his ben asks for a dag (fish), instead of a dag (fish) will give to him a nachash (snake)?

¹² Or if the ben will ask for a beytzah (egg), will the av give him an akrav (scorpion)?

¹³ If, therefore, you, though you are ra’im (evil ones), have da’as (knowledge) of how to give matanot tovot (good gifts) to your yeladim, how much more will HaAv shbaShomayim give the Ruach Hakodesh to the ones asking him.
