1. And it came to be while He was praying in a certain place, as He ceased, one of His taught ones said to Him, “Master, teach us to pray, as YohÌ£anan also taught his taught ones.”
2. And He said to them, “When you pray, say: Our Father in the heavens, let Your Name be set-apart, let Your reign come, let Your desire be done on earth as it is in heaven.
3. “Give us day by day our daily bread.
4. “And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And do not lead us into trial, but rescue us from the wicked one.”
5. And He said to them, “Which of you shall have a friend, and go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves,
6. since a friend of mine has come to me on his journey, and I do not have food to set before him,’
7. then the one inside answering, says, ‘Do not trouble me, the door is already locked, and my children with me are in bed. I am unable to get up and give to you’?
8. “I say to you, if he does not get up and give to him because he is his friend, he shall get up and give him as many as he needs because of his persistence.
9. “And I say to you: ask and it shall be given to you, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you.
10. “For everyone asking receives, and he who is seeking finds, and to him who is knocking it shall be opened.
