Luke 11:5-9

New American Standard Bible

⁵ And He said to them, “^[a]Suppose one of you has a friend, and goes to him at midnight and says to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves, ⁶ because a friend of mine has come to me from a journey and I have nothing to serve him’; ⁷ and from inside he answers and says, ‘Do not bother me; the door has already been shut and my children ^[b]and I are in bed; I cannot get up and give you anything.’ ⁸ I tell you, even if he will not get up and give him anything just because he is his friend, yet ^(A)because of his ^[c]shamelessness he will get up and give him as much as he needs.

⁹ “So I say to you, ^[d](B)ask, and it will be given to you; ^[e]seek, and you will find; ^[f]knock, and it will be opened to you.
