This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
7 “Make your requests, and they’ll be given to you. Keep looking, and you’ll find it. Knock on doors, and they’ll be opened. 8 Everyone who asks for something will get something, and everyone who searches for something will find something, and the door will be opened for everyone who knocks. 9 If you have a child that asks for something to eat, which of you would give them a stone? 10 Or if the child asked for some fish, who would give them a snake? 11 So if evil people know how to give good gifts to their children, how much more will your father in the heavens give good things to those who ask him?
12 [ref]“So in every area, whatever you’d like others to do for you, that’s how you people should be treating them. That’s what Mosheh’s instructions and the prophets’ writings were about.
9 So this is what I’m telling you: Keep submitting your requests and it’ll be given to you all, keep searching and you’ll all find what you’re looking for, keep knocking and the door will be opened for you all, 10 because everyone who requests will receive, and everyone who searches will find, and everyone who knocks will find opened doors. 11 How many of you fathers, if your child asked you for some fish, you’d give them a snake instead? 12 Or the child would ask for an egg and you’d pass them a scorpion? 13 So if you all know how to give good things to your children despite your being evil, how much more the father in heaven will give the holy spirit to those who ask him.”
