11:1 And 2532 it came to pass 1096 5633, that, as 1722 he 846 was 1511 5750 praying 4336 5740 in 1722 a certain 5100 place 5117, when 5613 he ceased 3973 5668, one 5100 of his 846 disciples 3101 said 2036 5627 unto 4314 him 846, Lord 2962, teach 1321 5657 us 2248 to pray 4336 5738, as 2531 John 2491 also 2532 taught 1321 5656 his 846 disciples 3101.

11:2 And 1161 he said 2036 5627 unto them 846, When 3752 ye pray 4336 5741, say 3004 5720, Our 2257 Father 3962 which 3588 art in 1722 heaven 3772, Hallowed be 37 5682 thy 4675 name 3686. Thy 4675 kingdom 932 come 2064 5628. Thy 4675 will 2307 be done 1096 5676, as 5613 in 1722 heaven 3772, so 2532 in 1909 earth 1093.

11:3 Give 1325 5720 us 2254 day 2596 by day 2250 our 2257 daily 1967 bread 740.(day by day: or, for the day)

11:4 And 2532 forgive 863 5628 us 2254 our 2257 sins 266; for 1063 we 846 also 2532 forgive 863 5719 every one 3956 that is indebted 3784 5723 to us 2254. And 2532 lead 1533 5661 us 2248 not 3361 into 1519 temptation 3986; but 235 deliver 4506 5663 us 2248 from 575 evil 4190.

11:5 And 2532 he said 2036 5627 unto 4314 them 846, Which 5101 of 1537 you 5216 shall have 2192 5692 a friend 5384, and 2532 shall go 4198 5695 unto 4314 him 846 at midnight 3317, and 2532 say 2036 5632 unto him 846, Friend 5384, lend 5531 5657 me 3427 three 5140 loaves 740;

11:6 For 1894 a friend 5384 of mine 3450 in 1537 his journey 3598 is come 3854 5633 to 4314 me 3165, and 2532 I have 2192 5719 nothing 3756 3739 to set before 3908 5692 him 846?(in…: or, out of his way)

11:7 And he 2548 from within 2081 shall answer 611 5679 and say 2036 5632, Trouble 2873 3930 5720 me 3427 not 3361: the door 2374 is 2808 0 now 2235 shut 2808 5769, and 2532 my 3450 children 3813 are 1526 5748 with 3326 me 1700 in 1519 bed 2845; I cannot 3756 1410 5736 rise 450 5631 and give 1325 5629 thee 4671.

11:8 I say 3004 5719 unto you 5213, Though 1499 he will 1453 0 not 3756 rise 1453 5685 and give 1325 5692 him 846, because 1223 he is 1511 5750 his 846 friend 5384, yet 1065 because 1223 of his 846 importunity 335 he will rise 450 5631 and give 1325 5692 him 846 as many as 3745 he needeth 5535 5719.

11:9 And 2504 I say 3004 5719 unto you 5213, Ask 154 5720, and 2532 it shall be given 1325 5701 you 5213; seek 2212 5720, and 2532 ye shall find 2147 5692; knock 2925 5720, and 2532 it shall be opened 455 5691 unto you 5213.

11:10 For 1063 every one 3956 that asketh 154 5723 receiveth 2983 5719; and 2532 he that seeketh 2212 5723 findeth 2147 5719; and 2532 to him that knocketh 2925 5723 it shall be opened 455 5691.

11:11 If 1161 a son 5207 shall ask 154 5692 bread 740 of any of you 5216 that is a father 3962 5101, will he give 1929 5692 3361 him 846 a stone 3037? or 1499 if [he ask] a fish 2486, will he 1929 0 for 473 a fish 2486 give 1929 5692 3361 him 846 a serpent 3789?

11:12 Or 2228 2532 if 1437 he shall ask 154 5661 an egg 5609, will he offer 3361 1929 5692 him 846 a scorpion 4651?(offer: Gr. give)

11:13 If 1487 ye 5210 then 3767, being 5225 5723 evil 4190, know 1492 5758 how to give 1325 5721 good 18 gifts 1390 unto your 5216 children 5043: how much 4214 more 3123 shall 1325 0 [your] heavenly 3772 Father 3962 1537 give 1325 5692 the Holy 40 Spirit 4151 to them that ask 154 5723 him 846?

11:14 And 2532 he was 2258 5713 casting out 1544 5723 a devil 1140, and 2532 it 846 was 2258 5713 dumb 2974. And 1161 it came to pass 1096 5633, when the devil 1140 was gone out 1831 5631, the dumb 2974 spake 2980 5656; and 2532 the people 3793 wondered 2296 5656.

11:15 But 1161 some 5100 of 1537 them 846 said 2036 5627, He casteth out 1544 5719 devils 1140 through 1722 Beelzebub 954 the chief 758 of the devils 1140.(Beelzebub: Gr. Beelzebul)

11:16 And 1161 others 2087, tempting 3985 5723 [him], sought 2212 5707 of 3844 him 846 a sign 4592 from 1537 heaven 3772.

11:17 But 1161 he 846, knowing 1492 5761 their 846 thoughts 1270, said 2036 5627 unto them 846, Every 3956 kingdom 932 divided 1266 5685 against 1909 itself 1438 is brought to desolation 2049 5743; and 2532 a house 3624 [divided] against 1909 a house 3624 falleth 4098 5719.

11:18 If 1161 1499 0 Satan 4567 also 1499 be divided 1266 5681 against 1909 himself 1438, how 4459 shall 2476 0 his 846 kingdom 932 stand 2476 5701? because 3754 ye say 3004 5719 that I 3165 cast out 1544 5721 devils 1140 through 1722 Beelzebub 954.

11:19 And 1161 if 1487 I 1473 by 1722 Beelzebub 954 cast out 1544 5719 devils 1140, by 1722 whom 5101 do 1544 0 your 5216 sons 5207 cast [them] out 1544 5719? therefore 1223 5124 shall they 846 be 2071 5704 your 5216 judges 2923.

11:20 But 1161 if 1487 I with 1722 the finger 1147 of God 2316 cast out 1544 5719 devils 1140, no doubt 686 the kingdom 932 of God 2316 is come 5348 5656 upon 1909 you 5209.

11:21 When 3752 a strong man 2478 armed 2528 5772 keepeth 5442 5725 his 833 palace 1438, his 846 goods 5224 5723 are 2076 5748 in 1722 peace 1515:

11:22 But 1161 when 1875 a stronger 2478 than he 846 shall come upon him 1904 5631, and overcome 3528 5661 him 846, he taketh 142 5719 from him 846 all his armour 3833 wherein 1909 3739 he trusted 3982 5714, and 2532 divideth 1239 5719 his 846 spoils 4661.

11:23 He that is 5607 5752 not 3361 with 3326 me 1700 is 2076 5748 against 2596 me 1700: and 2532 he that gathereth 4863 5723 not 3361 with 3326 me 1700 scattereth 4650 5719.

11:24 When 3752 the unclean 169 spirit 4151 is gone 1831 5632 out of 575 a man 444, he walketh 1330 5736 through 1223 dry 504 places 5117, seeking 2212 5723 rest 372; and 2532 finding 2147 5723 none 3361, he saith 3004 5719, I will return 5290 5692 unto 1519 my 3450 house 3624 whence 3606 I came out 1831 5627.

11:25 And 2532 when he cometh 2064 5631, he findeth 2147 5719 [it] swept 4563 5772 and 2532 garnished 2885 5772.

11:26 Then 5119 goeth he 4198 5736, and 2532 taketh 3880 5719 [to him] seven 2033 other 2087 spirits 4151 more wicked 4191 than himself 1438; and 2532 they enter in 1525 5631, and dwell 2730 5719 there 1563: and 2532 the last 2078 [state] of that 1565 man 444 is 1096 5736 worse 5501 than the first 4413.

11:27 And 1161 it came to pass 1096 5633, as 1722 he 846 spake 3004 5721 these things 5023, a certain 5100 woman 1135 of 1537 the company 3793 lifted up 1869 5660 her voice 5456, and said 2036 5627 unto him 846, Blessed 3107 [is] the womb 2836 that bare 941 5660 thee 4571, and 2532 the paps 3149 which 3739 thou hast sucked 2337 5656.

11:28 But 1161 he 846 said 2036 5627, Yea rather 3304, blessed 3107 [are] they that hear 191 5723 the word 3056 of God 2316, and 2532 keep 5442 5723 it 846.

11:29 And 1161 when the people 3793 were gathered thick together 1865 5746, he began 756 5662 to say 3004 5721, This 3778 is 2076 5748 an evil 4190 generation 1074: they seek 1934 5719 a sign 4592; and 2532 there shall 1325 0 no 3756 sign 4592 be given 1325 5701 it 846, but 1508 the sign 4592 of Jonas 2495 the prophet 4396.

11:30 For 1063 as 2531 Jonas 2495 was 1096 5633 a sign 4592 unto the Ninevites 3536, so 3779 shall 2071 0 also 2532 the Son 5207 of man 444 be 2071 5704 to this 5026 generation 1074.

11:31 The queen 938 of the south 3558 shall rise up 1453 5701 in 1722 the judgment 2920 with 3326 the men 435 of this 5026 generation 1074, and 2532 condemn 2632 5692 them 846: for 3754 she came 2064 5627 from 1537 the utmost parts 4009 of the earth 1093 to hear 191 5658 the wisdom 4678 of Solomon 4672; and 2532, behold 2400 5628, a greater than 4119 Solomon 4672 [is] here 5602.

11:32 The men 435 of Nineve 3535 shall rise up 450 5698 in 1722 the judgment 2920 with 3326 this 5026 generation 1074, and 2532 shall condemn 2632 5692 it 846: for 3754 they repented 3340 5656 at 1519 the preaching 2782 of Jonas 2495; and 2532, behold 2400 5628, a greater than 4119 Jonas 2495 [is] here 5602.

11:33 1161 No man 3762, when he hath lighted 681 5660 a candle 3088, putteth 5087 5719 [it] in 1519 a secret place 2926, neither 3761 under 5259 a bushel 3426, but 235 on 1909 a candlestick 3087, that 2443 they which 3588 come in 1531 5740 may see 991 5725 the light 5338.

11:34 The light 3088 of the body 4983 is 2076 5748 the eye 3788: therefore 3767 when 1875 thine 4675 eye 3788 is 5600 5753 single 573, thy 4675 whole 3650 body 4983 also 2532 is 2076 5748 full of light 5460; but 1161 when 3752 [thine eye] is 5600 5753 evil 4190, thy 4675 body 4983 also 2532 [is] full of darkness 4652.

11:35 Take heed 4648 5720 therefore 3767 that the light 5457 which 3588 is in 1722 thee 4671 be 2076 5748 not 3361 darkness 4655.

11:36 If 1487 thy 4675 whole 3650 body 4983 therefore 3767 [be] full of light 5460, having 2192 5723 no 3361 5100 part 3313 dark 4652, the whole 3650 shall be 2071 5704 full of light 5460, as 5613 when 3752 the bright shining 796 of a candle 3088 doth give 5461 0 thee 4571 light 5461 5725.(the bright…: Gr. a candle by its bright shining)

11:37 And 1161 as 1722 he spake 2980 5658, a certain 5100 Pharisee 5330 besought 2065 5707 him 846 to 3704 dine 709 5661 with 3844 him 846: and 1161 he went in 1525 5631, and sat down to meat 377 5627.

11:38 And 1161 when the Pharisee 5330 saw 1492 5631 [it], he marvelled 2296 5656 that 3754 he had 907 0 not 3756 first 4412 washed 907 5681 before 4253 dinner 712.

11:39 And 1161 the Lord 2962 said 2036 5627 unto 4314 him 846, Now 3568 do 2511 0 ye 5210 Pharisees 5330 make clean 2511 5719 the outside 1855 of the cup 4221 and 2532 the platter 4094; but 1161 your 5216 inward part 2081 is full 1073 5719 of ravening 724 and 2532 wickedness 4189.

11:40 [Ye] fools 878, did 4160 0 not 3756 he that made 4160 5660 that which 3588 is without 1855 make 4160 5656 that which 3588 is within 2081 also 2532?

11:41 But rather 4133 give 1325 5628 alms 1654 of such things as ye have 1751 5752; and 2532, behold 2400 5628, all things 3956 are 2076 5748 clean 2513 unto you 5213.(of…: or, as you are able)

11:42 But 235 woe 3759 unto you 5213, Pharisees 5330! for 3754 ye tithe 586 5719 mint 2238 and 2532 rue 4076 and 2532 all manner 3956 of herbs 3001, and 2532 pass over 3928 5736 judgment 2920 and 2532 the love 26 of God 2316: these 5023 ought ye 1163 5713 to have done 4160 5658, and not 3361 to leave 863 0 the other 2548 undone 863 5721.

11:43 Woe 3759 unto you 5213, Pharisees 5330! for 3754 ye love 25 5719 the uppermost seats 4410 in 1722 the synagogues 4864, and 2532 greetings 783 in 1722 the markets 58.

11:44 Woe 3759 unto you 5213, scribes 1122 and 2532 Pharisees 5330, hypocrites 5273! for 3754 ye are 2075 5748 as 5613 graves 3419 which 3588 appear not 82, and 2532 the men 444 that walk 4043 5723 over 1883 [them] are 1492 0 not 3756 aware 1492 5758 [of them].

11:45 Then 1161 answered 611 5679 one 5100 of the lawyers 3544, and said 3004 5719 unto him 846, Master 1320, thus 5023 saying 3004 5723 thou reproachest 5195 5719 us 2248 also 2532.

11:46 And 1161 he said 2036 5627, Woe 3759 unto you 5213 also 2532, [ye] lawyers 3544! for 3754 ye lade 5412 5719 men 444 with burdens 5413 grievous to be borne 1419, and 2532 ye yourselves 846 touch 4379 5719 not 3756 the burdens 5413 with one 1520 of your 5216 fingers 1147.

11:47 Woe 3759 unto you 5213! for 3754 ye build 3618 5719 the sepulchres 3419 of the prophets 4396, and 1161 your 5216 fathers 3962 killed 615 5656 them 846.

11:48 Truly 686 ye bear witness 3140 5719 that 2532 ye allow 4909 5719 the deeds 2041 of your 5216 fathers 3962: for 3754 they 846 indeed 3303 killed 615 5656 them 846, and 1161 ye 5210 build 3618 5719 their 846 sepulchres 3419.

11:49 Therefore 1223 5124 also 2532 said 2036 5627 the wisdom 4678 of God 2316, I will send 649 5692 1519 them 846 prophets 4396 and 2532 apostles 652, and 2532 [some] of 1537 them 846 they shall slay 615 5692 and 2532 persecute 1559 5692:

11:50 That 2443 the blood 129 of all 3956 the prophets 4396, which 3588 was shed 1632 5746 from 575 the foundation 2602 of the world 2889, may be required 1567 5686 of 575 this 5026 generation 1074;

11:51 From 575 the blood 129 of Abel 6 unto 2193 the blood 129 of Zacharias 2197, which 3588 perished 622 5642 between 3342 the altar 2379 and 2532 the temple 3624: verily 3483 I say 3004 5719 unto you 5213, It shall be required 1567 5701 of 575 this 5026 generation 1074.

11:52 Woe 3759 unto you 5213, lawyers 3544! for 3754 ye have taken away 142 5656 the key 2807 of knowledge 1108: ye entered 1525 0 not 3756 in 1525 5627 yourselves 846, and 2532 them that were entering in 1525 5740 ye hindered 2967 5656.(hindered: or, forbad)

11:53 And 1161 as he 846 said 3004 5723 these things 5023 unto 4314 them 846, the scribes 1122 and 2532 the Pharisees 5330 began 756 5662 to urge 1758 5721 [him] vehemently 1171, and 2532 to provoke 653 0 him 846 to speak 653 5721 of 4012 many things 4119:

11:54 Laying wait for 1748 5723 him 846, and 2532 seeking 2212 5723 to catch 2340 5658 something 5100 out of 1537 his 846 mouth 4750, that 2443 they might accuse 2723 5661 him 846.
