International Standard Version Help
11Once Jesus was praying in a certain place. After he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, "Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples."G2532G1096G1722G846G1511G4336G1722G5100G5117G5613G3973G5100G846G3101G2036G4314G846G2962G1321G2248G4336G2531G2491G2532G1321G846G3101
2So he told them, "Whenever you pray you are to say, 'Father, may your name be kept holy. May your kingdom come.G1161G2036G846G3752G4336G3004G2257G3962G3588G1722G3772G37G4675G3686G4675G932G2064G4675G2307G1096G5613G1722G3772G2532G1909G1093
3Keep giving us every day our daily bread,G1325G2254G2596G2250G2257G1967G740
4and forgive us our sins, as we forgive everyone who sins against us. And never bring us into temptation.'"G2532G863G2254G2257G266G1063G846G2532G863G3956G3784G2254G2532G1533G2248G3361G1519G3986G235G4506G2248G575G4190
5Then he said to them, "Suppose one of you has a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say to him, 'Friend, let me borrow three loaves of bread.G2532G2036G4314G846G5101G1537G5216G2192G5384G2532G4198G4314G846G3317G2532G2036G846G5384G5531G3427G5140G740
6A friend of mine on a trip has dropped in on me, and I don't have anything to serve him.'G1894G5384G3450G1537G3598G3854G4314G3165G2532G2192G3756G3739G3908G846
7Suppose he answers from inside, 'Stop bothering me! The door is already locked, and my children are here with us in the bedroom. I can't get up and give you anything!'G2548G2081G611G2036G2873G3930G3427G3361G2374G2808G2235G2808G2532G3450G3813G1526G3326G1700G1519G2845G3756G1410G450G1325G4671
8I tell you, even though that man doesn't want to get up and give him anything because he is his friend, he will get up and give him whatever he needs because of his persistence.G3004G5213G1499G1453G3756G1453G1325G846G1223G1511G846G5384G1065G1223G846G335G450G1325G846G3745G5535
9So I say to you: Keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep searching, and you will find. Keep knocking, and the door will be opened for you,G2504G3004G5213G154G2532G1325G5213G2212G2532G2147G2925G2532G455G5213
10because everyone who keeps asking will receive, and the person who keeps searching will find, and the person who keeps knocking will have the door opened.G1063G3956G154G2983G2532G2212G2147G2532G2925G455
11"What father among you, if his son asks for bread, would give him a stone, or if he asks for a fish, would give him a snake instead of the fish -G1161G5207G154G740G5216G3962G5101G1929G3361G846G3037G1499G2486G1929G473G2486G1929G3361G846G3789
12Or if he asks for an egg, would he give him a scorpion -G2228G2532G1437G154G5609G3361G1929G846G4651
13So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who keep asking him!"G1487G5210G3767G5225G4190G1492G1325G18G1390G5216G5043G4214G3123G1325G3772G3962G1537G1325G40G4151G154G846
14Jesus was driving a demon out of a man who was unable to talk. When the demon had gone out, the man began to speak, and the crowds were amazed.G2532G2258G1544G1140G2532G846G2258G2974G1161G1096G1140G1831G2974G2980G2532G3793G2296
15But some of them said, "He drives out demons by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons."G1161G5100G1537G846G2036G1544G1140G1722G954G758G1140
16Others, wanting to test Jesus, kept asking him for a sign from heaven.G1161G2087G3985G2212G3844G846G4592G1537G3772
17Since he knew what they were thinking, he said to them, "Every kingdom divided against itself is devastated, and a divided household collapses.G1161G846G1492G846G1270G2036G846G3956G932G1266G1909G1438G2049G2532G3624G1909G3624G4098
18Now, if Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom last? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.G1161G1499G4567G1499G1266G1909G1438G4459G2476G846G932G2476G3754G3004G3165G1544G1140G1722G954
19If I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your own followers drive them out? That is why they will be your judges!G1161G1487G1473G1722G954G1544G1140G1722G5101G1544G5216G5207G1544G1223G5124G846G2071G5216G2923
20But if I drive out demons by the power of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you.G1161G1487G1722G1147G2316G1544G1140G686G932G2316G5348G1909G5209
21"When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own mansion, his property is safe.G3752G2478G2528G5442G833G1438G846G5224G2076G1722G1515
22But when a stronger man than he attacks and defeats him, the stronger man strips off that man's armor in which he trusted and then divides his plunder.G1161G1875G2478G846G1904G3528G846G142G846G3833G1909G3739G3982G2532G1239G846G4661
23"The person who isn't with me is against me, and the person who doesn't gather with me scatters."G5607G3361G3326G1700G2076G2596G1700G2532G4863G3361G3326G1700G4650
24"Whenever an unclean spirit goes out of a person, it wanders through dry places looking for a place to rest but doesn't find any. So it says, 'I will go back to my home that I left.'G3752G169G4151G1831G575G444G1330G1223G504G5117G2212G372G2532G2147G3361G3004G5290G1519G3450G3624G3606G1831
25When it gets back home, it finds it swept clean and put in order.G2532G2064G2147G4563G2532G2885
26Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they all go in and settle there. And so the final condition of that person is worse than the first."G5119G4198G2532G3880G2033G2087G4151G4191G1438G2532G1525G2730G1563G2532G2078G1565G444G1096G5501G4413
27As Jesus was saying this, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said to him, "How blessed is the womb that gave birth to you and the breasts that nursed you!"G1161G1096G1722G846G3004G5023G5100G1135G1537G3793G1869G5456G2036G846G3107G2836G941G4571G2532G3149G3739G2337
28But he said, "Rather, how blessed are those who hear God's word and obey it!"G1161G846G2036G3304G3107G191G3056G2316G2532G5442G846
29Now as the crowds continued to throng around Jesus, he went on to say, "This people living today are an evil generation. It craves a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah,G1161G3793G1865G756G3004G3778G2076G4190G1074G1934G4592G2532G1325G3756G4592G1325G846G1508G4592G2495G4396
30because just as Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.G1063G2531G2495G1096G4592G3536G3779G2071G2532G5207G444G2071G5026G1074
31The queen of the south will stand up at the judgment and condemn the people living today, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon. But look, something greater than Solomon is here!G938G3558G1453G1722G2920G3326G435G5026G1074G2532G2632G846G3754G2064G1537G4009G1093G191G4678G4672G2532G2400G4119G4672G5602
32The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment and condemn the people living today, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah. But look, something greater than Jonah is here!"30G435G3535G450G1722G2920G3326G5026G1074G2532G2632G846G3754G3340G1519G2782G2495G2532G2400G4119G2495G5602
33"No one lights a lamp and puts it in a hiding place or under a basket, but on a lamp stand, so that those who enter may see its light.G1161G3762G681G3088G5087G1519G2926G3761G5259G3426G235G1909G3087G2443G3588G1531G991G5338
34Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light. But when it is evil, your body is full of darkness.G3088G4983G2076G3788G3767G1875G4675G3788G5600G573G4675G3650G4983G2532G2076G5460G1161G3752G5600G4190G4675G4983G2532G4652
35Therefore, be careful that the light in you isn't darkness.G4648G3767G5457G3588G1722G4671G2076G3361G4655
36Now if your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, it will be as full of light as when a lamp gives you light with its rays."G1487G4675G3650G4983G3767G5460G2192G3361G5100G3313G4652G3650G2071G5460G5613G3752G796G3088G5461G4571G5461
37After Jesus had said this, a Pharisee invited him to have a meal with him. So Jesus went and took his place at the table.G1161G1722G2980G5100G5330G2065G846G3704G709G3844G846G1161G1525G377
38The Pharisee was surprised to see that he didn't first wash before the meal.G1161G5330G1492G2296G3754G907G3756G4412G907G4253G712
39But the Lord said to him, "Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and the dish, but on the inside you are full of greed and evil.G1161G2962G2036G4314G846G3568G2511G5210G5330G2511G1855G4221G2532G4094G1161G5216G2081G1073G724G2532G4189
40You fools! The one who made the outside made the inside, too, didn't he -G878G4160G3756G4160G3588G1855G4160G3588G2081G2532
41So give what is inside to the poor, and then everything will be clean for you.G4133G1325G1654G1751G2532G2400G3956G2076G2513G5213
42"How terrible it will be for you Pharisees! You give a tenth of your mint, spices, and every kind of herb, but you neglect justice and the love of God. These are the things you should have practiced, without neglecting the others.G235G3759G5213G5330G3754G586G2238G2532G4076G2532G3956G3001G2532G3928G2920G2532G26G2316G5023G1163G4160G3361G863G2548G863
43How terrible it will be for you Pharisees! You love to have the places of honor in the synagogues and to be greeted in the marketplaces.G3759G5213G5330G3754G25G4410G1722G4864G2532G783G1722G58
44How terrible it will be for you! You are like unmarked graves - people walk on them without realizing it."G3759G5213G1122G2532G5330G5273G3754G2075G5613G3419G3588G82G2532G444G4043G1883G1492G3756G1492
45Then one of the experts in the law said to him, "Teacher, when you say these things, you insult us, too."G1161G611G5100G3544G3004G846G1320G5023G3004G5195G2248G2532
46Jesus said, "How terrible it will be for you experts in the law, too! You load people with burdens that are hard to carry, yet you don't even lift a finger to ease those burdens.G1161G2036G3759G5213G2532G3544G3754G5412G444G5413G1419G2532G846G4379G3756G5413G1520G5216G1147
47How terrible it will be for you! You build monuments for the prophets, and it was your ancestors who killed them!G3759G5213G3754G3618G3419G4396G1161G5216G3962G615G846
48So you are witnesses and approve of the deeds of your ancestors, because they killed those for whom you are building monuments.G686G3140G2532G4909G2041G5216G3962G3754G846G3303G615G846G1161G5210G3618G846G3419
49That is why the Wisdom of God said, 'I will send them prophets and apostles. They will kill some of them and persecute others,'G1223G5124G2532G2036G4678G2316G649G1519G846G4396G2532G652G2532G1537G846G615G2532G1559
50so those living today will be charged with the blood of all the prophets that was shed since the foundation of the world,G2443G129G3956G4396G3588G1632G575G2602G2889G1567G575G5026G1074
51from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who died between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, it will be charged against this generation!11G575G129G6G2193G129G2197G3588G622G3342G2379G2532G3624G3483G3004G5213G1567G575G5026G1074
52How terrible it will be for you experts in the law! You have taken away the key to knowledge. You didn't go in yourselves, and you kept out those who were trying to go in."G3759G5213G3544G3754G142G2807G1108G1525G3756G1525G846G2532G1525G2967
53As Jesus was leaving, the scribes and the Pharisees began to oppose him fiercely, interrogating him about many things.G1161G846G3004G5023G4314G846G1122G2532G5330G756G1758G1171G2532G653G846G653G4012G4119
54They watched him closely in an effort to trap him in something he might say.G1748G846G2532G2212G2340G5100G1537G846G4750G2443G2723G846
