Luke 11:4-9 Modern English Version (MEV)

4. And forgive us our sins,for we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.And lead us not into temptation,but deliver us from evil.”

5. Then He said to them, “Which of you has a friend and shall go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves,

6. for a friend of mine on his journey has come to me, and I have nothing to set before him’;

7. and he will answer from within, ‘Do not trouble me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give you anything’?

8. I say to you, though he will not rise and give him ­anything ­because he is his friend, yet because of his ­persistence he will rise and give him as much as he needs.

9. “And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.
