Lk Chapter 11 Verses 1-54

11:1
And
it
came
about
that
he
was
in
prayer
in
a
certain
place,
and
when
he
came to
an
end,
one
of
his
disciples
said
to
him,
Lord,
will you
give
us
teaching
about
prayer,
as
John
did
to
his
disciples?
11:2
And
he
said
to
them,
When
you
say
your
prayers,
say,
Father,
may
your
name
be
kept
holy
and
your
kingdom
come.
11:3
Give
us
every day
bread
for
our
needs.
11:4
May
we
have
forgiveness
for
our
sins,
as
we
make
free
all
those
who
are
in
debt
to
us.
And
let
us
not
be
put
to
the
test.
11:5
And
he
said
to
them,
Which
of
you,
having
a
friend,
would
go to
him
in
the
middle
of
the
night
and
say
to
him,
Friend,
let
me
have
three
cakes
of
bread;
11:6
Because
a
friend
of
mine
has
come to
me
on
a
journey,
and
I
have
nothing
to
put
before
him;
11:7
And
he,
from
inside
the
house,
would
say
in
answer,
Do not
be
a
trouble
to
me;
the
door
is
now
shut,
and
my children
are
with
me
in
bed;
it
is
not
possible
for
me
to
get up
and
give
to
you?
11:8
I
say
to
you,
Though
he
will not
get up
and
give
to
him,
because
he
is
his
friend,
still,
if
he
keeps
on
making
his
request,
he
will
get up
and
give
him
as much as
he
has
need
of.
11:9
And
I
say
to
you,
Make
requests,
and
they
will
be
answered;
what
you
are
searching
for,
you
will
get;
when
you
give
the
sign,
the
door
will
be
open
to
you.
11:10
For
to
everyone
who
makes
a
request,
it
will
be
given;
and
he
who
is
searching
will
get
his
desire;
and
to
him
who
gives
the
sign,
the
door
will
be
open.
11:11
And
which
of
you,
being
a
father,
will
give
a
stone
to
his
son,
who
makes
request
for
bread?
or
for
a
fish,
will
give
him
a
snake?
11:12
Or
for
an
egg,
will
give
him
a
scorpion?
11:13
If,
then,
you
who
are
evil
are able
to
give
good things
to
your
children,
how much
more
will
your
Father
in
heaven
give
the
Holy Spirit
to
those
who
make
request
to
him?
11:14
And
he
was
sending
an
evil
spirit
out of
a
man
who
was
without
the
power
of
talking.
And
it
came
about
that
when
the
spirit
had
gone
the
man
had
the
power
of
talking;
and
the
people
were
full
of
wonder.
11:15
But
some
of
them
said,
He
sends
out
evil
spirits
by
Beelzebul,
the
ruler
of
evil
spirits.
11:16
And
others,
testing
him,
were
looking
for
a
sign
from
heaven
from
him.
11:17
But
he,
having
knowledge
of
their
thoughts,
said
to
them,
Every
kingdom
in
which
there
is
division
is
made
waste;
and
a
house
in
which
there
is
division
comes to
destruction.
11:18
If,
then,
Satan
is
at
war
with
himself,
how
will
he
keep
his
kingdom?
because
you
say
that
I
send
evil
spirits
out of
men
by
the
help
of
Beelzebul.
11:19
And
if
I,
by
Beelzebul,
send
out
evil
spirits,
by
whose
help
do
your
sons
send
them
out?
so
let
them
be
your
judges.
11:20
But
if
I,
by
the
finger
of
God,
send
out
evil
spirits,
then
the
kingdom
of
God
has
overtaken
you.
11:21
When
the
strong
man
armed
keeps
watch
over
his
house,
then
his
goods
are
safe:
11:22
But
when
one
who
is
stronger
makes
an
attack
on
him
and
overcomes
him,
he
takes away
his
instruments
of
war,
in
which
he
had
put
his
faith,
and
makes
division
of
his
goods.
11:23
He
who
is
not
with
me
is
against
me,
and
he
who
will not
give
me
help
in
getting
people
together
is
driving
them
away.
11:24
The
unclean
spirit,
when
he
has
gone out
of
a
man,
goes through
dry
places,
looking
for
rest;
and
when
he
does not
get
it,
he
says,
I
will
go back
to
my
house
from
which
I
came.
11:25
And
when
he
comes,
he
sees
that
it
has been
made
fair
and
clean.
11:26
Then
he
goes
and
gets
seven
other
spirits
more
evil
than
himself,
and
they
go
in,
and
take
their
places
there:
and
the
last
condition
of
that
man
is
worse
than
the
first.
11:27
And
it
came
about
that
when
he
said
these
things,
a
certain
woman
among
the
people
said
in
a
loud
voice,
Happy
is
the
body
which
gave
you
birth,
and
the
breasts
from
which
you
took
milk.
11:28
But
he
said,
More
happy
are
they
who
give
hearing
to
the
word
of
God
and
keep
it.
11:29
And
when
a
great
number
of
people
came
together
to
him,
he
said,
This
generation
is
an
evil
generation:
it
is
looking
for
a
sign
and
no
sign
will
be
given
to
it
but
the
sign
of
Jonah.
11:30
For
even
as
Jonah
became
a
sign
to
the
Ninevites,
so
will
the
Son
of
man
be
to
this
generation.
11:31
The
queen
of
the
South
will
come
up
on
the
day
of
judging
and
give
her
decision
against
the
men
of
this
generation:
for
she
came
from
the ends
of
the
earth
to
give
ear
to
the
wisdom
of
Solomon;
and
now
something
greater than
Solomon
is
here.
11:32
The
men
of
Nineveh
will
come
up
in
the
day
of
judging
and
give
their
decision
against
this
generation:
for
they
were
turned
away from
their
sins
at
the
preaching
of
Jonah;
but
now
something
greater than
Jonah
is
here.
11:33
No
man,
when
the
light
has been
lighted,
puts
it
in
a
secret
place,
or
under
a
vessel,
but
on
its
table,
so
that
those
who
come in
may
see
the light.
11:34
The light
of
the
body
is
the
eye:
when
your
eye
is
true,
all
your
body
is
full
of
light;
but
when
it
is
evil,
your
body
is
dark.
11:35
So
take care
that
the
light
which
is
in
you
is
not
dark.
11:36
If,
then,
all
your
body
is
light,
with
no
part of
it
dark,
it
will
be
completely
full
of
light,
as
when
a
flame
with
its
bright
shining
gives
you
light.
11:37
Now,
while
he
was
talking,
a
Pharisee
made
a
request
that
he
would
come to
a
meal
with
him;
and
he
went
in
and
took
his
seat
at
the
meal.
11:38
And
when
the
Pharisee
saw
it,
he
was
surprised
because
he
came to
the
meal
without
first
washing
himself.
11:39
And
the
Lord
said
to
him,
You
Pharisees
make
the
outside
of
the
cup
and
the
plate
clean;
but
inside
you
are
thieves
and
full
of
evil.
11:40
O
you
foolish
ones!
did not
he
who
made
the
outside
in
the
same way
make
the
inside?
11:41
But
if
you
give
to
the
poor
such
things
as
you
are able,
then
all
things
are
clean
to
you.
11:42
But
a
curse
is
on
you,
Pharisees!
for
you
make
men
give
a tenth
of
every
sort
of
plant,
and
give
no
thought
to
right
and
the
love
of
God;
but
it
is
right
for
you
to
do
these
things,
and
not
let
the
others
be
undone.
11:43
A
curse
is
on
you,
Pharisees!
for
your
desires
are
for
the
most
important
seats
in
the
Synagogues
and
for
words
of
respect
said
to
you
in
the
market-place.
11:44
A
curse
is
on
you!
for
you
are
like
the
resting-places
of
dead
men,
which
are not
seen,
and
men
go
walking
over
them
without
knowledge
of
it.
11:45
And
one
of
the
teachers
of
the
law,
answering,
said
to
him,
Master,
in
saying
this,
you
give
a
bad
name
to
us
as
to
them.
11:46
And
he
said,
A
curse
is
on
you,
teachers
of
the
law!
for
while
other
men
are
crushed
under
the
weight
of
the
rules
you
make
for
them,
you
yourselves
do not put
so
much
as
one
finger
to
them.
11:47
A
curse
is
on
you!
for
you
make
resting-places
for
the
bodies
of
the
prophets,
but
your
fathers
put
them
to
death.
11:48
So
you
are
witnesses
and
give
approval
to
the
work
of
your
fathers;
for
they
put
them
to
death
and
you
make
their
last
resting-places.
11:49
For
this
reason
the
wisdom
of
God
has
said,
I
will
send
them
prophets
and
teachers,
and
to
some
of
them
they
will
give
death
and
cruel
pains;
11:50
So
that
punishment
may
come
on
this
generation
for
the
blood
of
all
the
prophets
which
was
given
from
the
earliest
days;
11:51
From
the
blood
of
Abel
to
the
blood
of
Zachariah,
who
was
put
to
death
between
the
altar
and
the
Temple.
Yes,
I
say
to
you,
It
will
come
on
this
generation.
11:52
A
curse
is
on
you,
teachers
of
the
law!
for
you
have
taken away
the
key
of
knowledge:
you
did
not
go
in
yourselves,
and
you
got
in
the
way
of
those
who
were
going
in.
11:53
And
when
he
had
come out
of
that
place,
the
scribes
and
the
Pharisees
came
round
him
angrily,
questioning
him
about
more
things;
11:54
And
watching
him,
for
a
chance
to
get
something
from
his
words
which
might
be
used
against
him.
