Matthew 7:8 in Context — Matthew 7

6 Não deis o que é santo aos cães, nem lanceis vossas pérolas diante dos porcos, para não acontecer de as pisarem com os pés e, virando-se, vos despedacem.

7 Pedi, e vos será dado; buscai, e achareis; batei, e vos será aberto;

8 Pois qualquer um que pede recebe; e quem busca acha; e ao que bate lhe é aberto.

9 E quem há dentre vós que, se seu filho pedir pão, lhe dará uma pedra?

10 E se pedir peixe, lhe dará uma serpente?
