Luke 11

11He was praying in a certain place, and when He finished, one of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, teach us to pray, just as John also taught his disciples."G2532G1096G1722G846G1511G4336G1722G5100G5117G5613G3973G5100G846G3101G2036G4314G846G2962G1321G2248G4336G2531G2491G2532G1321G846G31012He said to them, "Whenever you pray, say: Father, Your name be honored as holy. Your kingdom come.G1161G2036G846G3752G4336G3004G2257G3962G3588G1722G3772G37G4675G3686G4675G932G2064G4675G2307G1096G5613G1722G3772G2532G1909G10933Give us each day our daily bread.G1325G2254G2596G2250G2257G1967G7404And forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone in debt to us. And do not bring us into temptation."G2532G863G2254G2257G266G1063G846G2532G863G3956G3784G2254G2532G1533G2248G3361G1519G3986G235G4506G2248G575G41905He also said to them: "Suppose one of you has a friend and goes to him at midnight and says to him, 'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,G2532G2036G4314G846G5101G1537G5216G2192G5384G2532G4198G4314G846G3317G2532G2036G846G5384G5531G3427G5140G7406because a friend of mine on a journey has come to me, and I don't have anything to offer him.'G1894G5384G3450G1537G3598G3854G4314G3165G2532G2192G3756G3739G3908G8467Then he will answer from inside and say, 'Don't bother me! The door is already locked, and my children and I have gone to bed. I can't get up to give you anything.'G2548G2081G611G2036G2873G3930G3427G3361G2374G2808G2235G2808G2532G3450G3813G1526G3326G1700G1519G2845G3756G1410G450G1325G46718I tell you, even though he won't get up and give him anything because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as much as he needs.G3004G5213G1499G1453G3756G1453G1325G846G1223G1511G846G5384G1065G1223G846G335G450G1325G846G3745G55359"So I say to you, keep asking, and it will be given to you. Keep searching, and you will find. Keep knocking, and the door will be opened to you.G2504G3004G5213G154G2532G1325G5213G2212G2532G2147G2925G2532G455G521310For everyone who asks receives, and the one who searches finds, and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.G1063G3956G154G2983G2532G2212G2147G2532G2925G45511What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead of a fish?G1161G5207G154G740G5216G3962G5101G1929G3361G846G3037G1499G2486G1929G473G2486G1929G3361G846G378912Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?G2228G2532G1437G154G5609G3361G1929G846G465113If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?"G1487G5210G3767G5225G4190G1492G1325G18G1390G5216G5043G4214G3123G1325G3772G3962G1537G1325G40G4151G154G84614Now He was driving out a demon that was mute. When the demon came out, the man who had been mute, spoke, and the crowds were amazed.G2532G2258G1544G1140G2532G846G2258G2974G1161G1096G1140G1831G2974G2980G2532G3793G229615But some of them said, "He drives out demons by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons!"G1161G5100G1537G846G2036G1544G1140G1722G954G758G114016And others, as a test, were demanding of Him a sign from heaven.G1161G2087G3985G2212G3844G846G4592G1537G377217Knowing their thoughts, He told them: "Every kingdom divided against itself is headed for destruction, and a house divided against itself falls.G1161G846G1492G846G1270G2036G846G3956G932G1266G1909G1438G2049G2532G3624G1909G3624G409818If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say I drive out demons by Beelzebul.G1161G1499G4567G1499G1266G1909G1438G4459G2476G846G932G2476G3754G3004G3165G1544G1140G1722G95419And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, who is it your sons drive them out by? For this reason they will be your judges.G1161G1487G1473G1722G954G1544G1140G1722G5101G1544G5216G5207G1544G1223G5124G846G2071G5216G292320If I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you.G1161G1487G1722G1147G2316G1544G1140G686G932G2316G5348G1909G520921When a strong man, fully armed, guards his estate, his possessions are secure.G3752G2478G2528G5442G833G1438G846G5224G2076G1722G151522But when one stronger than he attacks and overpowers him, he takes from him all his weapons he trusted in, and divides up his plunder.G1161G1875G2478G846G1904G3528G846G142G846G3833G1909G3739G3982G2532G1239G846G466123Anyone who is not with Me is against Me, and anyone who does not gather with Me scatters.G5607G3361G3326G1700G2076G2596G1700G2532G4863G3361G3326G1700G465024"When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it roams through waterless places looking for rest, and not finding rest, it then says, 'I'll go back to my house where I came from.'G3752G169G4151G1831G575G444G1330G1223G504G5117G2212G372G2532G2147G3361G3004G5290G1519G3450G3624G3606G183125And returning, it finds [the house] swept and put in order.G2532G2064G2147G4563G2532G288526Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and settle down there. As a result, that man's last condition is worse than the first."G5119G4198G2532G3880G2033G2087G4151G4191G1438G2532G1525G2730G1563G2532G2078G1565G444G1096G5501G441327As He was saying these things, a woman from the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, "The womb that bore You and the one who nursed You are blessed!"G1161G1096G1722G846G3004G5023G5100G1135G1537G3793G1869G5456G2036G846G3107G2836G941G4571G2532G3149G3739G233728He said, "Even more, those who hear the word of God and keep it are blessed!"G1161G846G2036G3304G3107G191G3056G2316G2532G5442G84629As the crowds were increasing, He began saying: "This generation is an evil generation. It demands a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.G1161G3793G1865G756G3004G3778G2076G4190G1074G1934G4592G2532G1325G3756G4592G1325G846G1508G4592G2495G439630For just as Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so also the Son of Man will be to this generation.G1063G2531G2495G1096G4592G3536G3779G2071G2532G5207G444G2071G5026G107431The queen of the south will rise up at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and look— something greater than Solomon is here!G938G3558G1453G1722G2920G3326G435G5026G1074G2532G2632G846G3754G2064G1537G4009G1093G191G4678G4672G2532G2400G4119G4672G560232The men of Nineveh will rise up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at Jonah's proclamation, and look— something greater than Jonah is here!G435G3535G450G1722G2920G3326G5026G1074G2532G2632G846G3754G3340G1519G2782G2495G2532G2400G4119G2495G560233"No one lights a lamp and puts it in the cellar or under a basket, but on a lampstand, so that those who come in may see its light.G1161G3762G681G3088G5087G1519G2926G3761G5259G3426G235G1909G3087G2443G3588G1531G991G533834Your eye is the lamp of the body. When your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light. But when it is bad, your body is also full of darkness.G3088G4983G2076G3788G3767G1875G4675G3788G5600G573G4675G3650G4983G2532G2076G5460G1161G3752G5600G4190G4675G4983G2532G465235Take care then, that the light in you is not darkness.G4648G3767G5457G3588G1722G4671G2076G3361G465536If therefore your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, the whole body will be full of light, as when a lamp shines its light on you."G1487G4675G3650G4983G3767G5460G2192G3361G5100G3313G4652G3650G2071G5460G5613G3752G796G3088G5461G4571G546137As He was speaking, a Pharisee asked Him to dine with him. So He went in and reclined at the table.G1161G1722G2980G5100G5330G2065G846G3704G709G3844G846G1161G1525G37738When the Pharisee saw this, he was amazed that He did not first perform the ritual washing before dinner.G1161G5330G1492G2296G3754G907G3756G4412G907G4253G71239But the Lord said to him: "Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and evil.G1161G2962G2036G4314G846G3568G2511G5210G5330G2511G1855G4221G2532G4094G1161G5216G2081G1073G724G2532G418940Fools! Didn't He who made the outside make the inside too?G878G4160G3756G4160G3588G1855G4160G3588G2081G253241But give to charity what is within, and then everything is clean for you.G4133G1325G1654G1751G2532G2400G3956G2076G2513G521342"But woe to you Pharisees! You give a tenth of mint, rue, and every kind of herb, and you bypass justice and love for God. These things you should have done without neglecting the others.G235G3759G5213G5330G3754G586G2238G2532G4076G2532G3956G3001G2532G3928G2920G2532G26G2316G5023G1163G4160G3361G863G2548G86343"Woe to you Pharisees! You love the front seat in the synagogues and greetings in the marketplaces.G3759G5213G5330G3754G25G4410G1722G4864G2532G783G1722G5844"Woe to you! You are like unmarked graves; the people who walk over them don't know it."G3759G5213G1122G2532G5330G5273G3754G2075G5613G3419G3588G82G2532G444G4043G1883G1492G3756G149245One of the experts in the law answered Him, "Teacher, when You say these things You insult us too."G1161G611G5100G3544G3004G846G1320G5023G3004G5195G2248G253246Then He said: "Woe also to you experts in the law! You load people with burdens that are hard to carry, yet you yourselves don't touch these burdens with one of your fingers.G1161G2036G3759G5213G2532G3544G3754G5412G444G5413G1419G2532G846G4379G3756G5413G1520G5216G114747"Woe to you! You build monuments to the prophets, and your fathers killed them.G3759G5213G3754G3618G3419G4396G1161G5216G3962G615G84648Therefore you are witnesses that you approve the deeds of your fathers, for they killed them, and you build their monuments.G686G3140G2532G4909G2041G5216G3962G3754G846G3303G615G846G1161G5210G3618G846G341949Because of this, the wisdom of God said, 'I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute,'G1223G5124G2532G2036G4678G2316G649G1519G846G4396G2532G652G2532G1537G846G615G2532G155950so that this generation may be held responsible for the blood of all the prophets shed since the foundation of the world—G2443G129G3956G4396G3588G1632G575G2602G2889G1567G575G5026G107451from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary. "Yes, I tell you, this generation will be held responsible.G575G129G6G2193G129G2197G3588G622G3342G2379G2532G3624G3483G3004G5213G1567G575G5026G107452"Woe to you experts in the law! You have taken away the key of knowledge! You didn't go in yourselves, and you hindered those who were going in."G3759G5213G3544G3754G142G2807G1108G1525G3756G1525G846G2532G1525G296753When He left there, the scribes and the Pharisees began to oppose Him fiercely and to cross-examine Him about many things;G1161G846G3004G5023G4314G846G1122G2532G5330G756G1758G1171G2532G653G846G653G4012G411954they were lying in wait for Him to trap Him in something He said.G1748G846G2532G2212G2340G5100G1537G846G4750G2443G2723G846

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
