ABP - Luke - 11

11:1  And it came to pass in his being in a certain place praying, as he ceased, said a certain one of his disciples to him, O Lord, teach us to pray! as also John taught his disciples.

11:2  And he said to them, Whenever you pray, say! Our father, the one in the heavens, let [2be sanctified 1your name]! Let [3come 2kingdom 1your]! Let [2become 1your will] as in heaven also upon the earth.

11:3  [3our bread 4sufficient 1Give 2to us] for the day!

11:4  And forgive to us our sins! for also to them we forgive -- to all owing us. And do not insert us for a test! but rescue us from the evil!

11:5  And he said to them, Who among you shall have a friend, and shall go to him at midnight, and should say to him, O friend, furnish to me three bread loaves!

11:6  since a friend of mine is come from a journey to me, and I do not have the thing I shall place for him.

11:7  And that one inside answering should say, Do not [3for me 2troubles 1make]! already the door is locked, and my children [2with 3me 4in 5bed 1are]; I am not able to rise up to give to you.

11:8  I say to you, even if he will not give to him having risen up, because of the being his friend; indeed because of his insistence, he will arise to give to him as much as he needs.

11:9  And I say to you, Ask! and it shall be given to you. Seek! and you shall find. Knock! and it shall be opened to you.

11:10  For all asking receive; and the one seeking finds; and to the one knocking it shall be opened.

11:11  And which of you being a father, [3shall ask 1and the 2son] for bread -- shall [3a stone 1he give 2to him], no. Shall also if he asks for a fish, shall instead of a fish [3a serpent 1give 2to him], no.

11:12  Or even if he should ask for an egg, will he give to him a scorpion, no.

11:13  If then you, [2wicked ones 1being], know [3gifts 2good 1to give] to your children; how much more the father from heaven shall give [2spirit 1holy] to the ones asking him?

11:14  And he was casting out a demon, and it was mute. And it happened of the demon coming forth, [3spoke 1the 2mute]; and [3marveled 1the 2multitudes].

11:15  And certain ones of them said, By Beelzeboul, ruler of the demons he casts out the demons.

11:16  And others testing, [2a sign 3from 4him 1sought] from heaven.

11:17  But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom [2against 3itself 1being divided] is made desolate; and a house against a house falls.

11:18  And if also Satan [2against 3himself 1be divided], how shall [2stand 1his kingdom]? For you say, By Beelzeboul is my casting out the demons.

11:19  But if I by Beelzeboul cast out the demons, your sons, by whom do they cast out? On account of this [3your judges 1they 2shall be].

11:20  But if by the finger of God I cast out the demons, then came upon you the kingdom of God.

11:21  Whenever the strong man, being armed, should guard his own courtyard, [4in 5peace 3are 2possessions 1his].

11:22  But when the stronger than he coming should overcome him, [2his full armor 1he takes] upon which he yields, and his spoils he distributes.

11:23  The one not being with me, [2against 3me 1is]; and the one not gathering together with me, disperses.

11:24  Whenever the unclean spirit should go forth from the man, it goes through waterless places seeking rest; and not finding, it says, I will return unto my house from where I came forth.

11:25  And having come, it finds it being swept and trimmed.

11:26  Then it goes and takes to itself seven other [2spirits 1more evil] than itself, and they enter to dwell there; and becomes the last of that man worse than the first.

11:27  And it happened in his saying these things, [3having lifted up 1a certain 2woman] her voice from out of the multitude, said to him, Blessed is the belly bearing you, and the breasts which you nursed.

11:28  And he said, Certainly are blessed the ones hearing the word of God and keeping it.

11:29  And the multitudes being gathered together, he began to say, This generation is wicked; [2a sign 1it seeks anxiously], and no sign shall be given it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet.

11:30  For as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so shall be also the son of man to this generation.

11:31  The queen of the south shall arise in the judgment with the men of this generation, and shall condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, more than a Solomon is here.

11:32  Men of Nineveh shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it; for they repented at the proclamation of Jonah; and behold, more than a Jonah is here.

11:33  And no one [2a lamp 1lighting], [2in 3a hidden place 1puts it], nor under a bushel, but upon the lamp-stand, that the ones entering [2by the 3brightness 1shall see].

11:34  The lamp of the body is the eye. Whenever then your eye might be sincere, then [2entire 3body 1your] is light. But when it might be evil, then your body is dark.

11:35  Watch then lest the light, the one in you is darkness!

11:36  If then [3body 1your 2entire] is giving light, not having any part dark, it will be [2giving light 1entirely], as whenever the lamp's lighting should give you light.

11:37  And in his speaking, [2asked 3him 1a certain Pharisee] that he should dine with him. And entering he reclined.

11:38  And the Pharisee, beholding, wondered that [2not 3first 1he immersed] before the dinner.

11:39  [4said 1And 2the 3Lord] to him, Now you, the Pharisees, [2the 3outside 4of the 5cup 6and 7the 8platter 1cleanse]; but the inside of you is full of seizure and wickedness.

11:40  Fools, did not the one making the outside, also [2the 3inside 1make]?

11:41  Furthermore, the things being within give charity! and behold, then all things [2clean 3to you 1are]!

11:42  But woe to you, to the Pharisees; for you tithe the mint and the rue and every vegetation, and pass by the judgment and the love of God; these things are necessary to do, and those things are not to be dismissed.

11:43  Woe to you, to the Pharisees; for you love the first seat in the synagogues, and the greetings in the markets.

11:44  Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; for you are as the [2tombs 1concealed], and the men walking upon them have not known it.

11:45  And responding, a certain person of the legal experts says to him, Teacher, these things saying [2even 4us 1you 3insult].

11:46  And he said, And to you, to the legal experts, woe; for you load men with loads hard to bear, and yourselves [5with one 6of your fingers 1do not 2touch 3the 4loads].

11:47  Woe to you; for you build the tombs of the prophets, but your fathers killed them.

11:48  Then you witness and assent to the works of your fathers; for they indeed killed them, and you build their tombs.

11:49  On account of this also the wisdom of God said, I will send unto them prophets and apostles, and of them they will kill and drive out;

11:50  that should be required, the blood of all the prophets being poured out from the founding of the world, of this generation.

11:51  From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, the one perishing between the altar and the house. Yes, I say to you, it will be required of this generation.

11:52  Woe to you, to the legal experts; for you take away the key of the knowledge, and you yourselves do not enter, and the ones entering you restrain.

11:53  [3saying 1And 2of his] these things to them, [6began 1the 2scribes 3and 4the 5Pharisees] awfully to press, and to ensnare him with off-hand questions concerning many things;

11:54  lying in wait for him, seeking to hunt something from out of his mouth, that they should charge him.
