Luke 11

1 Christ teacheth to pray, and that instantly: 11 assuring that God so will give us good things. 14 He casting out a dumb devil, rebuketh the blasphemous Pharisees: 28 and sheweth who are blessed: 29 preacheth to the people: 37 and reprehendeth the outward shew of holiness in the Pharisees, scribes, and lawyers.

 11:1 ¶ And 2532 it came to pass, 1096 z5633 that, as y1722 he 846 was 1511 z5750 praying 4336 z5740 in 1722 a certain 5100 place, 5117 when 5613 he ceased, y3973 z5668 x3974 one 5100 of his 846 disciples 3101 said 2036 z5627 unto 4314 him, 846 Lord, 2962 teach 1321 z5657 us 2248 to pray, 4336 z5738 as 2531 John 2491 also 2532 taught 1321 z5656 his y846 x848 disciples. 3101

 11:2 And 1161 he said 2036 z5627 unto them, 846 When 3752 ye pray, 4336 z5741 say, 3004 z5720 Our 2257 Father 3962 which 3588 art in 1722 heaven, 3772 Hallowed x37 be y37 z5682 thy 4675 name. 3686 Thy 4675 kingdom 932 come. 2064 z5628 Thy 4675 will 2307 be done, 1096 z5676 as 5613 in 1722 heaven, 3772 so 2532 in 1909 earth. 1093

 11:3 Give 1325 z5720 us 2254 day y2596 by day 2250 x2596 our 2257 daily 1967 bread. 740

 11:4 And 2532 forgive 863 z5628 us 2254 our 2257 sins; 266 for 1063 we 846 also 2532 forgive 863 z5719 every one 3956 that is indebted 3784 z5723 to us. 2254 And 2532 lead 1533 z5661 us 2248 not 3361 into 1519 temptation; 3986 but 235 deliver 4506 z5663 us 2248 from 575 evil. 4190

 11:5 And 2532 he said 2036 z5627 unto 4314 them, 846 Which 5101 of 1537 you 5216 shall have 2192 z5692 a friend, 5384 and 2532 shall go 4198 z5695 unto 4314 him 846 at midnight, 3317 and 2532 say 2036 z5632 unto him, 846 Friend, 5384 lend 5531 z5657 me 3427 three 5140 loaves; 740

 11:6 For 1894 a friend 5384 of mine 3450 in 1537 his journey 3598 is come 3854 z5633 to 4314 me, 3165 and 2532 I have 2192 z5719 nothing 3756 y3739 to x3739 set before 3908 z5692 him? 846

 11:7 And he 2548 from within 2081 shall answer 611 z5679 and say, 2036 z5632 Trouble y2873 y3930 z5720 me y3427 not: 3361 x3930 x3427 x2873 the x3588 door 2374 is y2808 z0 now 2235 shut, 2808 z5769 and 2532 my 3450 children 3813 are 1526 z5748 with 3326 me 1700 in 1519 bed; 2845 I cannot 3756 1410 z5736 rise 450 z5631 and give 1325 z5629 thee. 4671

 11:8 I say 3004 z5719 unto you, 5213 Though 1499 he will y1453 z0 not 3756 rise y1453 z5685 x450 and give 1325 z5692 him, 846 because y1223 he is 1511 z5750 his 846 friend, 5384 yet 1065 because 1223 of his 846 importunity 335 he will rise y450 z5631 x1453 and give 1325 z5692 him 846 as many as 3745 he needeth. 5535 z5719

 11:9 And y2504 I x2504 say 3004 z5719 unto you, 5213 Ask, 154 z5720 and 2532 it shall be given 1325 z5701 you; 5213 seek, 2212 z5720 and 2532 ye shall find; 2147 z5692 knock, 2925 z5720 and 2532 it shall be opened 455 z5691 unto you. 5213

 11:10 For 1063 every one 3956 that asketh 154 z5723 receiveth; 2983 z5719 and 2532 he that seeketh 2212 z5723 findeth; 2147 z5719 and 2532 to him that knocketh 2925 z5723 it shall be opened. 455 z5691

 11:11 If 1161 a son 5207 shall ask 154 z5692 bread 740 of any x5101 of you 5216 that is a father, 3962 y5101 will he x3361 give 1929 z5692 y3361 him 846 a stone? 3037 or y1499 x2532 if x1487 [he ask] a fish, 2486 will x3361 he y1929 z0 for 473 a fish 2486 give 1929 z5692 y3361 him 846 a serpent? 3789

 11:12 Or 2228 2532 if 1437 he shall ask 154 z5661 an egg, 5609 will he x3361 offer 1929 y3361 z5692 him 846 a scorpion? 4651

 11:13 If 1487 ye 5210 then, 3767 being 5225 z5723 evil, 4190 know 1492 z5758 how to give 1325 z5721 good 18 gifts 1390 unto your 5216 children: 5043 how much 4214 more 3123 shall y1325 z0 [your] heavenly 3772 x1537 Father 3962 y1537 give 1325 z5692 the Holy 40 Spirit 4151 to them that ask 154 z5723 him? 846

 11:14 ¶ And 2532 he was 2258 z5713 casting out 1544 z5723 a devil, 1140 and 2532 it 846 was 2258 z5713 dumb. 2974 And 1161 it came to pass, 1096 z5633 when the x3588 devil 1140 was gone out, 1831 z5631 the x3588 dumb 2974 spake; 2980 z5656 and 2532 the x3588 people 3793 wondered. 2296 z5656

 11:15 But 1161 some 5100 of 1537 them 846 said, 2036 z5627 He casteth out 1544 z5719 devils 1140 through 1722 Beelzebub 954 the chief 758 of the x3588 devils. 1140

 11:16 And 1161 others, 2087 tempting 3985 z5723 [him], sought 2212 z5707 of 3844 him 846 a sign 4592 from 1537 heaven. 3772

 11:17 But 1161 he, 846 knowing 1492 z5761 their 846 thoughts, 1270 said 2036 z5627 unto them, 846 Every 3956 kingdom 932 divided 1266 z5685 against 1909 itself 1438 is brought to desolation; 2049 z5743 and 2532 a house 3624 [divided] against 1909 a house 3624 falleth. 4098 z5719

 11:18 x1161 If y1161 y1499 z0 x1487 Satan 4567 also y1499 x2532 be divided 1266 z5681 against 1909 himself, 1438 how 4459 shall y2476 z0 his 846 kingdom 932 stand? 2476 z5701 because 3754 ye say 3004 z5719 that I 3165 cast out 1544 z5721 devils 1140 through 1722 Beelzebub. 954

 11:19 And 1161 if 1487 I 1473 by 1722 Beelzebub 954 cast out 1544 z5719 devils, 1140 by 1722 whom 5101 do y1544 z0 your 5216 sons 5207 cast [them] out? 1544 z5719 therefore 1223 5124 shall they 846 be 2071 z5704 your 5216 judges. 2923

 11:20 But 1161 if 1487 I with 1722 the finger 1147 of God 2316 cast out 1544 z5719 devils, 1140 no doubt 686 the x3588 kingdom 932 of God 2316 is come 5348 z5656 upon 1909 you. 5209

 11:21 When 3752 a strong man 2478 armed 2528 z5772 keepeth 5442 z5725 his y833 x1438 palace, y1438 x833 his 846 goods 5224 z5723 are 2076 z5748 in 1722 peace: 1515

 11:22 But 1161 when 1875 a stronger 2478 than he 846 shall come upon x1904 him, y1904 z5631 and overcome 3528 z5661 him, 846 he taketh 142 z5719 from him y846 all his armour 3833 x846 wherein 1909 3739 he trusted, 3982 z5714 and 2532 divideth 1239 z5719 his 846 spoils. 4661

 11:23 He that is 5607 z5752 not 3361 with 3326 me 1700 is 2076 z5748 against 2596 me: 1700 and 2532 he that gathereth 4863 z5723 not 3361 with 3326 me 1700 scattereth. 4650 z5719

 11:24 When 3752 the x3588 unclean 169 spirit 4151 is gone 1831 z5632 out of 575 a man, 444 he walketh 1330 z5736 through 1223 dry 504 places, 5117 seeking 2212 z5723 rest; 372 and 2532 finding 2147 z5723 none, 3361 he saith, 3004 z5719 I will return 5290 z5692 unto 1519 my 3450 house 3624 whence 3606 I came out. 1831 z5627

 11:25 And 2532 when he cometh, 2064 z5631 he findeth 2147 z5719 [it] swept 4563 z5772 and 2532 garnished. 2885 z5772

 11:26 Then 5119 goeth x4198 he, y4198 z5736 and 2532 taketh 3880 z5719 [to him] seven 2033 other 2087 spirits 4151 more wicked 4191 than himself; 1438 and 2532 they enter in, 1525 z5631 and x2532 dwell 2730 z5719 there: 1563 and 2532 the x3588 last 2078 [state] of that 1565 man 444 is 1096 z5736 worse 5501 than the x3588 first. 4413

 11:27 ¶ And 1161 it came to pass, 1096 z5633 as y1722 he 846 spake 3004 z5721 these things, 5023 a certain 5100 woman 1135 of 1537 the x3588 company 3793 lifted up 1869 z5660 her voice, 5456 and said 2036 z5627 unto him, 846 Blessed 3107 [is] the x3588 womb 2836 that bare 941 z5660 thee, 4571 and 2532 the paps 3149 which 3739 thou hast sucked. 2337 z5656

 11:28 But 1161 he 846 said, 2036 z5627 Yea rather, 3304 blessed 3107 [are] they that hear 191 z5723 the x3588 word 3056 of God, 2316 and 2532 keep 5442 z5723 it. 846

 11:29 ¶ And 1161 when the x3588 people 3793 were gathered thick together, 1865 z5746 he began 756 z5662 to say, 3004 z5721 This 3778 is 2076 z5748 an evil 4190 generation: 1074 they seek 1934 z5719 a sign; 4592 and 2532 there shall y1325 z0 no 3756 sign 4592 be given 1325 z5701 it, 846 but 1508 the x3588 sign 4592 of Jonas 2495 the x3588 prophet. 4396

 11:30 For 1063 as 2531 Jonas 2495 was 1096 z5633 a sign 4592 unto the x444 Ninevites, 3536 so 3779 shall y2071 z0 also 2532 the x3588 Son 5207 of man 444 be 2071 z5704 to this 5026 generation. 1074

 11:31 The queen 938 of the south 3558 shall rise up 1453 z5701 in 1722 the x3588 judgment 2920 with 3326 the x3588 men 435 of this 5026 generation, 1074 and 2532 condemn 2632 z5692 them: 846 for 3754 she came 2064 z5627 from 1537 the x3588 utmost parts 4009 of the x3588 earth 1093 to hear 191 z5658 the x3588 wisdom 4678 of Solomon; 4672 and, 2532 behold, 2400 z5628 a greater x4119 than y4119 Solomon 4672 [is] here. 5602

 11:32 The men 435 of Nineve 3535 shall rise up 450 z5698 in 1722 the x3588 judgment 2920 with 3326 this 5026 generation, 1074 and 2532 shall condemn 2632 z5692 it: 846 for 3754 they repented 3340 z5656 at 1519 the x3588 preaching 2782 of Jonas; 2495 and, 2532 behold, 2400 z5628 a greater x4119 than y4119 Jonas 2495 [is] here. 5602

 11:33 y1161 No man, 3762 when he hath lighted 681 z5660 a candle, 3088 putteth 5087 z5719 [it] in 1519 a secret place, y2926 x2927 neither 3761 under 5259 a bushel, 3426 but 235 on 1909 a candlestick, 3087 that 2443 they which y3588 come in 1531 z5740 may see 991 z5725 the x3588 light. 5338

 11:34 The x3588 light 3088 of the x3588 body 4983 is 2076 z5748 the x3588 eye: 3788 therefore 3767 when y1875 x3752 thine 4675 eye 3788 is 5600 z5753 single, 573 thy 4675 whole 3650 body 4983 also 2532 is 2076 z5748 full of light; 5460 but 1161 when y3752 x1875 [thine eye] is 5600 z5753 evil, 4190 thy 4675 body 4983 also 2532 [is] full of darkness. 4652

 11:35 Take heed 4648 z5720 therefore 3767 that the x3588 light 5457 which 3588 is in 1722 thee 4671 be 2076 z5748 not 3361 darkness. 4655

 11:36 If 1487 thy 4675 whole 3650 body 4983 therefore 3767 [be] full of light, 5460 having 2192 z5723 no 3361 5100 part 3313 dark, 4652 the whole 3650 shall be 2071 z5704 full of light, 5460 as 5613 when 3752 the x3588 bright shining 796 of a candle 3088 doth give y5461 z0 thee y4571 light. 5461 z5725 x4571

 11:37 ¶ And 1161 as y1722 he spake, 2980 z5658 a certain 5100 Pharisee 5330 besought 2065 z5707 him 846 to 3704 dine 709 z5661 with 3844 him: 846 and 1161 he went x1525 in, y1525 z5631 and sat down to meat. 377 z5627

 11:38 And 1161 when the x3588 Pharisee 5330 saw 1492 z5631 [it], he marvelled 2296 z5656 that 3754 he had y907 z0 not 3756 first 4412 washed 907 z5681 before 4253 dinner. 712

 11:39 And 1161 the x3588 Lord 2962 said 2036 z5627 unto 4314 him, 846 Now 3568 do y2511 z0 ye 5210 Pharisees 5330 make clean 2511 z5719 the x3588 outside 1855 of the x3588 cup 4221 and 2532 the x3588 platter; 4094 but 1161 your 5216 inward part 2081 is full 1073 z5719 of ravening 724 and 2532 wickedness. 4189

 11:40 [Ye] fools, 878 did y4160 z0 not 3756 he that made 4160 z5660 that x3588 which y3588 is without 1855 make 4160 z5656 that x3588 which y3588 is within 2081 also? 2532

 11:41 But x4133 rather y4133 give 1325 z5628 alms 1654 of such things as ye have; 1751 z5752 and, 2532 behold, 2400 z5628 all things 3956 are 2076 z5748 clean 2513 unto you. 5213

 11:42 But 235 woe 3759 unto you, 5213 Pharisees! 5330 for 3754 ye tithe 586 z5719 mint 2238 and 2532 rue 4076 and 2532 all manner 3956 of herbs, 3001 and 2532 pass over 3928 z5736 judgment 2920 and 2532 the x3588 love 26 of God: 2316 these 5023 ought x1163 ye y1163 z5713 to have done, 4160 z5658 and not y3361 to leave y863 z0 the other y2548 undone. 863 z5721 x2548 x3361

 11:43 Woe 3759 unto you, 5213 Pharisees! 5330 for 3754 ye love 25 z5719 the x3588 uppermost seats 4410 in 1722 the x3588 synagogues, 4864 and 2532 greetings 783 in 1722 the x3588 markets. 58

 11:44 Woe 3759 unto you, 5213 scribes 1122 and 2532 Pharisees, 5330 hypocrites! 5273 for 3754 ye are 2075 z5748 as 5613 graves 3419 which y3588 appear not, 82 and 2532 the x3588 men 444 that walk 4043 z5723 over 1883 [them] are y1492 z0 not y3756 aware 1492 z5758 x3756 [of them].

 11:45 ¶ Then 1161 answered 611 z5679 one 5100 of the x3588 lawyers, 3544 and said 3004 z5719 unto him, 846 Master, 1320 thus 5023 saying 3004 z5723 thou reproachest 5195 z5719 us 2248 also. 2532

 11:46 And 1161 he x3588 said, 2036 z5627 Woe 3759 unto you 5213 also, 2532 [ye] lawyers! 3544 for 3754 ye lade 5412 z5719 men 444 with burdens 5413 grievous to be borne, 1419 and 2532 ye yourselves 846 touch 4379 z5719 not 3756 the x3588 burdens 5413 with one 1520 of your 5216 fingers. 1147

 11:47 Woe 3759 unto you! 5213 for 3754 ye build 3618 z5719 the x3588 sepulchres 3419 of the x3588 prophets, 4396 and 1161 your 5216 fathers 3962 killed 615 z5656 them. 846

 11:48 Truly 686 ye bear witness 3140 z5719 that 2532 ye allow 4909 z5719 the x3588 deeds 2041 of your 5216 fathers: 3962 for 3754 they 846 indeed 3303 killed 615 z5656 them, 846 and 1161 ye 5210 build 3618 z5719 their 846 sepulchres. 3419

 11:49 Therefore 1223 5124 also 2532 said 2036 z5627 the x3588 wisdom 4678 of God, 2316 I will send 649 1519 z5692 them 846 prophets 4396 and 2532 apostles, 652 and 2532 [some] of 1537 them 846 they shall slay 615 z5692 and 2532 persecute: 1559 z5692

 11:50 That y2443 x2553 the x3588 blood 129 of all 3956 the x3588 prophets, 4396 which y3588 was shed 1632 z5746 from 575 the foundation 2602 of the world, 2889 may be required 1567 z5686 of 575 this 5026 generation; 1074

 11:51 From 575 the x3588 blood 129 of Abel 6 unto 2193 the x3588 blood 129 of Zacharias, 2197 which y3588 perished 622 z5642 between 3342 the x3588 altar 2379 and 2532 the x3588 temple: 3624 verily 3483 I say 3004 z5719 unto you, 5213 It shall be required 1567 z5701 of 575 this 5026 generation. 1074

 11:52 Woe 3759 unto you, 5213 lawyers! 3544 for 3754 ye have taken away 142 z5656 the x3588 key 2807 of knowledge: 1108 ye entered y1525 z0 not y3756 in 1525 z5627 x3756 yourselves, 846 and 2532 them that were entering in 1525 z5740 ye hindered. 2967 z5656

 11:53 And 1161 as he 846 said 3004 z5723 these things 5023 unto 4314 them, 846 the x3588 scribes 1122 and 2532 the x3588 Pharisees 5330 began 756 z5662 to urge 1758 z5721 [him] vehemently, 1171 and 2532 to provoke y653 z0 him y846 to speak 653 z5721 x846 of 4012 many things: 4119

 11:54 Laying wait x1748 for y1748 z5723 him, 846 and 2532 seeking 2212 z5723 to catch 2340 z5658 something 5100 out of 1537 his 846 mouth, y4750 x4570 that 2443 they might accuse 2723 z5661 him. 846
