"And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.
But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.
Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
"This, then, is how you should pray: " 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
「你們禱告的時候,不可像那假冒為善的人,愛站在會堂裡和十字路口上禱告,故意叫人看見。我實在告訴你們,他們已經得了他們的賞賜。
你禱告的時候,要進你的內屋,關上門,禱告你在暗中的父;你父在暗中察看,必然報答你。
你們禱告,不可像外邦人,用許多重複話,他們以為話多了必蒙垂聽。
你們不可效法他們;因為你們沒有祈求以先,你們所需用的,你們的父早已知道了。
所以,你們禱告要這樣說:我們在天上的父:願人都尊你的名為聖。
願你的國降臨;願你的旨意行在地上,如同行在天上。
我們日用的飲食,今日賜給我們。
免我們的債,如同我們免了人的債。

So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak.
When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob's hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man.
Then the man said, "Let me go, for it is daybreak." But Jacob replied, "I will not let you go unless you bless me."
The man asked him, "What is your name?" "Jacob," he answered.
Then the man said, "Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome."

那人說:「你名叫什麼?」他說:「我名叫雅各。」
那人說:「你的名不要再叫雅各,要叫以色列;因為你與神與人較力,都得了勝。」
路加福音 11:1
- 13
One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, "Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples."
He said to them, "When you pray, say: " 'Father, ote style="f" caller="+"> 11:2 Some manuscripts Our Father in heaven hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. ote style="f" caller="+"> 11:2 Some manuscripts come. May your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us each day our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. ote style="f" caller="+"> 11:4 Greek everyone who is indebted to us And lead us not into temptation. ote style="f" caller="+"> 11:4 Some manuscripts temptation, but deliver us from the evil one ' "
Then Jesus said to them, "Suppose you have a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say, 'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread;
a friend of mine on a journey has come to me, and I have no food to offer him.'
And suppose the one inside answers, 'Don't bother me. The door is already locked, and my children and I are in bed. I can't get up and give you anything.'
I tell you, even though he will not get up and give you the bread because of friendship, yet because of your shameless audacity he will surely get up and give you as much as you need.
"So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
"Which of you fathers, if your son asks for ote style="f" caller="+"> 11:11 Some manuscripts for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?
Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?
If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"
耶穌在一個地方禱告;禱告完了,有個門徒對他說:「求主教導我們禱告,像約翰教導他的門徒。」
耶穌說:「你們禱告的時候,要說:我們在天上的父(有古卷:父啊):願人都尊你的名為聖。願你的國降臨;願你的旨意行在地上,如同行在天上(有古卷沒有願你的旨意云云)。
我們日用的飲食,天天賜給我們。
赦免我們的罪,因為我們也赦免凡虧欠我們的人。不叫我們遇見試探;救我們脫離兇惡(有古卷沒有末句)。」
耶穌又說:「你們中間誰有一個朋友半夜到他那裡去,說:『朋友!請借給我三個餅;
因為我有一個朋友行路,來到我這裡,我沒有什麼給他擺上。』
那人在裡面回答說:『不要攪擾我,門已經關閉,孩子們也同我在床上了,我不能起來給你。』
我告訴你們,雖不因他是朋友起來給他,但因他情詞迫切的直求,就必起來照他所需用的給他。
我又告訴你們,你們祈求,就給你們;尋找,就尋見;叩門,就給你們開門。
因為,凡祈求的,就得著;尋找的,就尋見;叩門的,就給他開門。
你們中間作父親的,誰有兒子求餅,反給他石頭呢?求魚,反拿蛇當魚給他呢?
求雞蛋,反給他蠍子呢?
你們雖然不好,尚且知道拿好東西給兒女;何況天父,豈不更將聖靈給求他的人嗎?」
