7. Keep on asking and it will be given you; keep on seeking and you will find; keep on knocking [reverently] and [the door] will be opened to you.
8. For everyone who keeps on asking receives; and he who keeps on seeking finds; and to him who keeps on knocking, [the door] will be opened.
9. Or what man is there of you, if his son asks him for a loaf of bread, will hand him a stone?
10. Or if he asks for a fish, will hand him a serpent?
