" Or if he asks for a fish, who will give him a serpent? "

Matthew 7:10

menu_book Verse in Context

8 For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.

9 Or who is there among you who, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone?

10 Or if he asks for a fish, who will give him a serpent?

11 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!

12 Therefore, whatever you desire for men to do to you, you shall also do to them; for this is the law and the prophets.
