7. `Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you;
8. for every one who is asking doth receive, and he who is seeking doth find, and to him who is knocking it shall be opened.
9. `Or what man is of you, of whom, if his son may ask a loaf--a stone will he present to him?
10. and if a fish he may ask--a serpent will he present to him?
11. if, therefore, ye being evil, have known good gifts to give to your children, how much more shall your Father who [is] in the heavens give good things to those asking him?
12. `All things, therefore, whatever ye may will that men may be doing to you, so also do to them, for this is the law and the prophets.
