6 Don’t give holy things to dogs, and don’t throw your pearls in front of pigs. They will stomp on the pearls, then turn around and attack you.
7 “Ask, and you will receive. Search, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened to you.
8 For everyone who asks, receives. Whoever seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door is opened.
9 Who among you will give your children a stone when they ask for bread?
10 Or give them a snake when they ask for fish?
11 If you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good things to those who ask him.
12 Therefore, you should treat people in the same way that you want people to treat you; this is the Law and the Prophets.
