And which father of you, if the son will ask a loaf, will give him a stone, or also if a fish, in place of a fish will give him a serpent?
Or what man is there of you, who, if his son may ask for bread, will give him a stone,
Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yea, these may forget, yet I will not forget thee.
and if he may ask for a fish, will give him a serpent?
For every man who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.
Or if he should ask for an egg, will he give him a scorpion?
