5 Il leur dit encore: Si l’un de vous a un ami, et qu’il aille le trouver au milieu de la nuit pour lui dire: Ami, prête-moi trois pains,

6 car un de mes amis est arrivé de voyage chez moi, et je n’ai rien à lui offrir,

7 et si, de l’intérieur de sa maison, cet ami lui répond: Ne m’importune pas, la porte est déjà fermée, mes enfants et moi sommes au lit, je ne puis me lever pour te donner des pains,

8 je vous le dis, même s’il ne se levait pas pour les lui donner parce que c’est son ami, il se lèverait à cause de son importunité et lui donnerait tout ce dont il a besoin.

9 Et moi, je vous dis:Demandez, et l’on vous donnera; cherchez, et vous trouverez; frappez, et l’on vous ouvrira.
