New International Version (1984) Help
11One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, "Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples."G2532G1096G1722G846G1511G4336G1722G5100G5117G5613G3973G5100G846G3101G2036G4314G846G2962G1321G2248G4336G2531G2491G2532G1321G846G3101
2He said to them, "When you pray, say: "'Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come.G1161G2036G846G3752G4336G3004G2257G3962G3588G1722G3772G37G4675G3686G4675G932G2064G4675G2307G1096G5613G1722G3772G2532G1909G1093
3Give us each day our daily bread.G1325G2254G2596G2250G2257G1967G740
4Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.'"G2532G863G2254G2257G266G1063G846G2532G863G3956G3784G2254G2532G1533G2248G3361G1519G3986G235G4506G2248G575G4190
5Then he said to them, "Suppose one of you has a friend, and he goes to him at midnight and says, 'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,G2532G2036G4314G846G5101G1537G5216G2192G5384G2532G4198G4314G846G3317G2532G2036G846G5384G5531G3427G5140G740
6because a friend of mine on a journey has come to me, and I have nothing to set before him.'G1894G5384G3450G1537G3598G3854G4314G3165G2532G2192G3756G3739G3908G846
7"Then the one inside answers, 'Don't bother me. The door is already locked, and my children are with me in bed. I can't get up and give you anything.'G2548G2081G611G2036G2873G3930G3427G3361G2374G2808G2235G2808G2532G3450G3813G1526G3326G1700G1519G2845G3756G1410G450G1325G4671
8I tell you, though he will not get up and give him the bread because he is his friend, yet because of the man's boldness he will get up and give him as much as he needs.G3004G5213G1499G1453G3756G1453G1325G846G1223G1511G846G5384G1065G1223G846G335G450G1325G846G3745G5535
9"So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.G2504G3004G5213G154G2532G1325G5213G2212G2532G2147G2925G2532G455G5213
10For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.G1063G3956G154G2983G2532G2212G2147G2532G2925G455
11"Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?G1161G5207G154G740G5216G3962G5101G1929G3361G846G3037G1499G2486G1929G473G2486G1929G3361G846G3789
12Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?G2228G2532G1437G154G5609G3361G1929G846G4651
13If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"G1487G5210G3767G5225G4190G1492G1325G18G1390G5216G5043G4214G3123G1325G3772G3962G1537G1325G40G4151G154G846
14Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. When the demon left, the man who had been mute spoke, and the crowd was amazed.G2532G2258G1544G1140G2532G846G2258G2974G1161G1096G1140G1831G2974G2980G2532G3793G2296
15But some of them said, "By Beelzebub, the prince of demons, he is driving out demons."G1161G5100G1537G846G2036G1544G1140G1722G954G758G1140
16Others tested him by asking for a sign from heaven.G1161G2087G3985G2212G3844G846G4592G1537G3772
17Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them: "Any kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and a house divided against itself will fall.G1161G846G1492G846G1270G2036G846G3956G932G1266G1909G1438G2049G2532G3624G1909G3624G4098
18If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? I say this because you claim that I drive out demons by Beelzebub.G1161G1499G4567G1499G1266G1909G1438G4459G2476G846G932G2476G3754G3004G3165G1544G1140G1722G954
19Now if I drive out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your followers drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.G1161G1487G1473G1722G954G1544G1140G1722G5101G1544G5216G5207G1544G1223G5124G846G2071G5216G2923
20But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you.G1161G1487G1722G1147G2316G1544G1140G686G932G2316G5348G1909G5209
21"When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are safe.G3752G2478G2528G5442G833G1438G846G5224G2076G1722G1515
22But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted and divides up the spoils.G1161G1875G2478G846G1904G3528G846G142G846G3833G1909G3739G3982G2532G1239G846G4661
23"He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me, scatters.G5607G3361G3326G1700G2076G2596G1700G2532G4863G3361G3326G1700G4650
24"When an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, 'I will return to the house I left.'G3752G169G4151G1831G575G444G1330G1223G504G5117G2212G372G2532G2147G3361G3004G5290G1519G3450G3624G3606G1831
25When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.G2532G2064G2147G4563G2532G2885
26Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that man is worse than the first."G5119G4198G2532G3880G2033G2087G4151G4191G1438G2532G1525G2730G1563G2532G2078G1565G444G1096G5501G4413
27As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, "Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you."G1161G1096G1722G846G3004G5023G5100G1135G1537G3793G1869G5456G2036G846G3107G2836G941G4571G2532G3149G3739G2337
28He replied, "Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it."G1161G846G2036G3304G3107G191G3056G2316G2532G5442G846
29As the crowds increased, Jesus said, "This is a wicked generation. It asks for a miraculous sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.G1161G3793G1865G756G3004G3778G2076G4190G1074G1934G4592G2532G1325G3756G4592G1325G846G1508G4592G2495G4396
30For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so also will the Son of Man be to this generation.G1063G2531G2495G1096G4592G3536G3779G2071G2532G5207G444G2071G5026G1074
31The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon's wisdom, and now one greater than Solomon is here.G938G3558G1453G1722G2920G3326G435G5026G1074G2532G2632G846G3754G2064G1537G4009G1093G191G4678G4672G2532G2400G4119G4672G5602
32The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now one greater than Jonah is here.G435G3535G450G1722G2920G3326G5026G1074G2532G2632G846G3754G3340G1519G2782G2495G2532G2400G4119G2495G5602
33"No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.G1161G3762G681G3088G5087G1519G2926G3761G5259G3426G235G1909G3087G2443G3588G1531G991G5338
34Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body also is full of darkness.G3088G4983G2076G3788G3767G1875G4675G3788G5600G573G4675G3650G4983G2532G2076G5460G1161G3752G5600G4190G4675G4983G2532G4652
35See to it, then, that the light within you is not darkness.G4648G3767G5457G3588G1722G4671G2076G3361G4655
36Therefore, if your whole body is full of light, and no part of it dark, it will be completely lighted, as when the light of a lamp shines on you."G1487G4675G3650G4983G3767G5460G2192G3361G5100G3313G4652G3650G2071G5460G5613G3752G796G3088G5461G4571G5461
37When Jesus had finished speaking, a Pharisee invited him to eat with him; so he went in and reclined at the table.G1161G1722G2980G5100G5330G2065G846G3704G709G3844G846G1161G1525G377
38But the Pharisee, noticing that Jesus did not first wash before the meal, was surprised.G1161G5330G1492G2296G3754G907G3756G4412G907G4253G712
39Then the Lord said to him, "Now then, you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.G1161G2962G2036G4314G846G3568G2511G5210G5330G2511G1855G4221G2532G4094G1161G5216G2081G1073G724G2532G4189
40You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also?G878G4160G3756G4160G3588G1855G4160G3588G2081G2532
41But give what is inside the dish to the poor, and everything will be clean for you.G4133G1325G1654G1751G2532G2400G3956G2076G2513G5213
42"Woe to you Pharisees, because you give God a tenth of your mint, rue and all other kinds of garden herbs, but you neglect justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without leaving the former undone.G235G3759G5213G5330G3754G586G2238G2532G4076G2532G3956G3001G2532G3928G2920G2532G26G2316G5023G1163G4160G3361G863G2548G863
43"Woe to you Pharisees, because you love the most important seats in the synagogues and greetings in the marketplaces.G3759G5213G5330G3754G25G4410G1722G4864G2532G783G1722G58
44"Woe to you, because you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without knowing it."G3759G5213G1122G2532G5330G5273G3754G2075G5613G3419G3588G82G2532G444G4043G1883G1492G3756G1492
45One of the experts in the law answered him, "Teacher, when you say these things, you insult us also."G1161G611G5100G3544G3004G846G1320G5023G3004G5195G2248G2532
46Jesus replied, "And you experts in the law, woe to you, because you load people down with burdens they can hardly carry, and you yourselves will not lift one finger to help them.G1161G2036G3759G5213G2532G3544G3754G5412G444G5413G1419G2532G846G4379G3756G5413G1520G5216G1147
47"Woe to you, because you build tombs for the prophets, and it was your forefathers who killed them.G3759G5213G3754G3618G3419G4396G1161G5216G3962G615G846
48So you testify that you approve of what your forefathers did; they killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.G686G3140G2532G4909G2041G5216G3962G3754G846G3303G615G846G1161G5210G3618G846G3419
49Because of this, God in his wisdom said, 'I will send them prophets and apostles, some of whom they will kill and others they will persecute.'G1223G5124G2532G2036G4678G2316G649G1519G846G4396G2532G652G2532G1537G846G615G2532G1559
50Therefore this generation will be held responsible for the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the beginning of the world,G2443G129G3956G4396G3588G1632G575G2602G2889G1567G575G5026G1074
51from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, this generation will be held responsible for it all.G575G129G6G2193G129G2197G3588G622G3342G2379G2532G3624G3483G3004G5213G1567G575G5026G1074
52"Woe to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering."G3759G5213G3544G3754G142G2807G1108G1525G3756G1525G846G2532G1525G2967
53When Jesus left there, the Pharisees and the teachers of the law began to oppose him fiercely and to besiege him with questions,G1161G846G3004G5023G4314G846G1122G2532G5330G756G1758G1171G2532G653G846G653G4012G4119
54waiting to catch him in something he might say.G1748G846G2532G2212G2340G5100G1537G846G4750G2443G2723G846
