Luke 11
1 And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a
certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples
said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also
taught his disciples.
2 And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our
Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy
kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in
earth.
3 Give us day by day our daily bread.
4 And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every
one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into
temptation; but deliver us from evil.
5 And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a
friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say
unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves;
6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me,
and I have nothing to set before him?
7 And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble
me not: the door is now shut, and my children are
with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.
8 I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give
him, because he is his friend, yet because of his
importunity he will rise and give him as many as he
needeth.
9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given
you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be
opened unto you.
10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that
seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be
opened.
11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a
father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a
fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?
12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a
scorpion?
13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good
gifts unto your children: how much more shall your
heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask
him?
14 And he was casting out a devil, and it was dumb.
And it came to pass, when the devil was gone out, the
dumb spake; and the people wondered.
15 But some of them said, He casteth out devils
through Beelzebub the chief of the devils.
16 And others, tempting him, sought of him a sign
from heaven.
17 But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them,
Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to
desolation; and a house divided against a house
falleth.
18 If Satan also be divided against himself, how
shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast
out devils through Beelzebub.
19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do
your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your
judges.
20 But if I with the finger of God cast out devils,
no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.
21 When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his
goods are in peace:
22 But when a stronger than he shall come upon him,
and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour
wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.
23 He that is not with me is against me: and he that
gathereth not with me scattereth.
24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he
walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding
none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I
came out.
25 And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and
garnished.
26 Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other
spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in,
and dwell there: and the last state of that man is
worse than the first.
27 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a
certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and
said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee,
and the paps which thou hast sucked.
28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that
hear the word of God, and keep it.
29 And when the people were gathered thick together,
he began to say, This is an evil generation: they
seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but
the sign of Jonas the prophet.
30 For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so
shall also the Son of man be to this generation.
31 The queen of the south shall rise up in the
judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn
them: for she came from the utmost parts of the earth
to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater
than Solomon is here.
32 The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment
with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they
repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a
greater than Jonas is here.
33 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it
in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a
candlestick, that they which come in may see the
light.
34 The light of the body is the eye: therefore when
thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of
light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is
full of darkness.
35 Take heed therefore that the light which is in
thee be not darkness.
36 If thy whole body therefore be full of light,
having no part dark, the whole shall be full of
light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth
give thee light.
37 And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him
to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to
meat.
38 And when the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he
had not first washed before dinner.
39 And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees
make clean the outside of the cup and the platter;
but your inward part is full of ravening and
wickedness.
40 Ye fools, did not he that made that which is
without make that which is within also?
41 But rather give alms of such things as ye have;
and, behold, all things are clean unto you.
42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and
rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment
and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and
not to leave the other undone.
43 Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost
seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the
markets.
44 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men
that walk over them are not aware of them.
45 Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto
him, Master, thus saying thou reproachest us also.
46 And he said, Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! for ye
lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye
yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your
fingers.
47 Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the
prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of
your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye
build their sepulchres.
49 Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send
them prophets and apostles, and some of them they
shall slay and persecute:
50 That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed
from the foundation of the world, may be required of
this generation;
51 From the blood of Abel unto the blood of
Zacharias, which perished between the altar and the
temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be required
of this generation.
52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the
key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and
them that were entering in ye hindered.
53 And as he said these things unto them, the scribes
and the Pharisees began to urge him vehemently, and
to provoke him to speak of many things:
54 Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch
something out of his mouth, that they might accuse
him.
