Luke 11:1-8 ▼

1 And it came to pass, that He was in a certain place praying; when He ceased, one of His disciples said to Him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.

2 And He said to them, When you pray, say, Our Father, let thy name be hallowed: let thy kingdom come:

3 give unto us this day our daily bread:

4 and forgive us our sins; for we also do forgive every one owing us: and lead us not into temptation.

5 And He said to them, Which one of you shall have a friend, and go to him at midnight, and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves;

6 since my friend came to me from the road, and I have nothing which I may place before him.

7 And he responding from within, said, Do not give me trouble: the door has already been closed, and my children are in bed with me; I am not able rising to give unto thee.

8 I say unto you, If indeed having risen he will not give unto him, because he is his friend, yet on account of his shamelessness, rising he will give him as much as he needs.
