Luke 11:8-11 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

8. "I tell you, that person will not get up. And he won't give the man bread just because he is his friend. But because the man keeps on asking, he will get up. He will give him as much as he needs.

9. "So here is what I say to you. Ask, and it will be given to you. Search, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened to you.

10. Everyone who asks will receive. He who searches will find. And the door will be opened to the one who knocks.

11. "Fathers, suppose your son asks for a fish. Which of you will give him a snake instead?
