11 What father among you, if his son asks for a fish,*11:11 BYZ and TR if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone, or for a fish; see Matthew 7:9–10. will give him a snake instead? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13 So if you who 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!"
