19 Ask, and it shall be given unto you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you,
20 For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.
21 Or what man is there of you, who, if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
22 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
23 If ye then being evil know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
24 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them, for this is the law and the prophets.
25 Enter ye in at the strait gate; for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be who go in thereat:
26 Because stait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
27 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
28 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
29 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
