Matthew Mark Luke
11:5-8
5 And he said to them, 
"Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight and say to him, `Friend, lend me three
loaves; 6 for a friend of mine has arrived on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him; 7 and he will answer from within, `Do not bother me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot get up and give you anything?  8 I tell you, though he will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him whatever he needs."
