¹⁴ And this is the boldness that we have toward Him, that if anything we may ask according to his will, He doth hear us,

²¹ Beloved, if our heart may not condemn us, we have boldness toward God,

²² and whatever we may ask, we receive from Him, because His commands we keep, and the things pleasing before Him we do,

¹³ and whatever ye may ask in my name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son;

²⁴ till now ye did ask nothing in my name; ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

³ ye ask, and ye receive not, because evilly ye ask, that in your pleasures ye may spend `it'.

¹² in whom we have the freedom and the access in confidence through the faith of him,

⁷ if ye may remain in me, and my sayings in you may remain, whatever ye may wish ye shall ask, and it shall be done to you.

³ Call unto Me, and I do answer thee, yea, I declare to thee great and fenced things -- thou hast not known them.

⁵ and if any of you do lack wisdom, let him ask from God, who is giving to all liberally, and not reproaching, and it shall be given to him;

⁶ and let him ask in faith, nothing doubting, for he who is doubting hath been like a wave of the sea, driven by wind and tossed,

²⁹ Far `is' Jehovah from the wicked, And the prayer of the righteous He heareth.

¹⁷ They cried, and Jehovah heard, And from all their distresses delivered them.

³¹ and we have known that God doth not hear sinners, but, if any one may be a worshipper of God, and may do His will, him He doth hear;

²⁸ To cause to come in unto Him The cry of the poor, And the cry of the afflicted He heareth.

²² and all -- as much as ye may ask in the prayer, believing, ye shall receive.'

³⁵ Ye may not cast away, then, your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward,

¹² `And ye have called Me, and have gone, and have prayed unto Me, and I have hearkened unto you,

¹³ And ye have sought Me, and have found, for ye seek Me with all your heart;

³³ For Jehovah hearkeneth unto the needy, And His bound ones He hath not despised.

²² And I -- I have said in my haste, `I have been cut off from before Thine eyes,' But Thou hast heard the voice of my supplications, In my crying unto Thee.

⁴² and I knew that Thou always dost hear me, but, because of the multitude that is standing by, I said `it', that they may believe that Thou didst send me.'

⁶ and Christ, as a Son over his house, whose house are we, if the boldness and the rejoicing of the hope unto the end we hold fast.

¹⁴ for partakers we have become of the Christ, if the beginning of the confidence unto the end we may hold fast,

²⁸ And now, little children, remain in him, that when he may be manifested, we may have boldness, and may not be ashamed before him, in his presence;

⁷ `Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you;

⁸ for every one who is asking doth receive, and he who is seeking doth find, and to him who is knocking it shall be opened.

⁹ `Or what man is of you, of whom, if his son may ask a loaf -- a stone will he present to him?

¹⁰ and if a fish he may ask -- a serpent will he present to him?

¹¹ if, therefore, ye being evil, have known good gifts to give to your children, how much more shall your Father who `is' in the heavens give good things to those asking him?

¹⁶ Be confessing to one another the trespasses, and be praying for one another, that ye may be healed; very strong is a working supplication of a righteous man;
