ગુજરાતીલૂક ૧૧:૮
હું તમને કહું છું કે, તે તેનો મિત્ર છે, તેને લીધે તે ઊઠીને તેને આપે નહિ, તોપણ તેના આગ્રહને લીધે તે ઊઠશે, અને તેને જોઈએ તેટલી રોટલી તેને આપશે.
हिन्दीलूका ११:८
मैं तुम से कहता हूँ, यदि उसका मित्र होने पर भी उसे उठकर न दे, फिर भी उसके लज्जा छोड़कर माँगने के कारण उसे जितनी आवश्यकता हो उतनी उठकर देगा।

In context

6for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,’

7and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give it to you’?

8I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.

9“I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.

10For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
