6 Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not cast your pearls before swine, lest perhaps they may trample them under their feet, and then, turning, they may tear you apart.
7 Ask, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and you shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you.
8 For everyone who asks, receives; and whoever seeks, finds; and to anyone who knocks, it will be opened.
9 Or what man is there among you, who, if his son were to ask him for bread, would offer him a stone;
10 or if he were to ask him for a fish, would offer him a snake?
11 Therefore, if you, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your sons, how much more will your Father, who is in heaven, give good things to those who ask him?
12 Therefore, all things whatsoever that you wish that men would do to you, do so also to them. For this is the law and the prophets.
