¹⁴ And we are certain that if we make any request to him which is right in his eyes, he will give ear to us:

²¹ My loved ones, if our heart does not say that we have done wrong, we have no fear before him;

²² And he gives us all our requests, because we keep his laws and do the things which are pleasing in his eyes.

¹³ And whatever request you make in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may have glory in the Son.

²⁴ Up to now you have made no request in my name: do so, and it will be answered, so that your hearts may be full of joy.

³ You make your request but you do not get it, because your request has been wrongly made, desiring the thing only so that you may make use of it for your pleasure.

¹² By whom we come near to God without fear through faith in him.

⁷ If you are in me at all times, and my words are in you, then anything for which you make a request will be done for you.

³ Let your cry come to me, and I will give you an answer, and let you see great things and secret things of which you had no knowledge.

⁵ But if any man among you is without wisdom, let him make his request to God, who gives freely to all without an unkind word, and it will be given to him.

⁶ Let him make his request in faith, doubting nothing; for he who has doubt in his heart is like the waves of the sea, which are troubled by the driving of the wind.

²⁹ The Lord is far from sinners, but his ear is open to the prayer of the upright.

¹⁷ The cry of the upright comes before the Lord, and he takes them out of all their troubles.

³¹ We have knowledge that God does not give ear to sinners, but if any man is a worshipper of God and does his pleasure, to him God's ears are open.

²⁸ So that the cry of the poor might come up to him, and the prayer of those in need come to his ears.

²² And all things, whatever you make request for in prayer, having faith, you will get.

³⁵ So do not give up your hope which will be greatly rewarded.

¹² And you will go on crying to me and making prayer to me, and I will give ear to you.

¹³ And you will be searching for me and I will be there, when you have gone after me with all your heart.

³³ For the ears of the Lord are open to the poor, and he takes thought for his prisoners.

²² And as for me, I said in my fear, I am cut off from before your eyes; but you gave ear to the voice of my prayer, when my cry went up to you.

⁴² I was certain that your ears are at all times open to me, but I said it because of these who are here, so that they may see that you sent me.

⁶ But Christ as a son, over his house; whose house are we, if we keep our hearts fixed in the glad and certain hope till the end.

¹⁴ For if we keep the substance of the faith which we had at the start, even till the end, we have a part with Christ;

²⁸ And now, my children, keep your hearts in him; so that at his revelation, we may have no fear or shame before him at his coming.

⁷ Make a request, and it will be answered; what you are searching for you will get; give the sign, and the door will be open to you:

⁸ Because to everyone who makes a request, it will be given; and he who is searching will get his desire, and to him who gives the sign, the door will be open.

⁹ Or which of you, if his son makes a request for bread, will give him a stone?

¹⁰ Or if he makes a request for a fish, will give him a snake?

¹¹ If you, then, being evil, are able to give good things to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who make requests to him?

¹⁶ So then, make a statement of your sins to one another, and say prayers for one another so that you may be made well. The prayer of a good man is full of power in its working.
