7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8. for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
9. Or what man is there of you, who, if his son shall ask him for a loaf, will give him a stone;
10. or if he shall ask for a fish, will give him a serpent?
11. If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
12. All things therefore whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, even so do ye also unto them: for this is the law and the prophets.
13. Enter ye in by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many be they that enter in thereby.
14. For narrow is the gate, and straitened the way, that leadeth unto life, and few be they that find it.
15. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.
16. By their fruits ye shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
