Matthew 7:7–15

7 fAsk, gand it shall be given you; hseek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that hseeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall iyour Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? 12 Therefore all things kwhatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: lfor this is the law and the prophets.

13 mEnter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 ||Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

15 nBeware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are oravening wolves.
