So denn ihr, die ihr arg seid, könnet euren Kindern gute Gaben geben, wie viel mehr wird der Vater im Himmel den heiligen Geist geben denen, die ihn bitten!
Pues si vosotros, siendo malos, sabéis dar buenas dádivas a vuestros hijos, ¿cuánto más vuestro Padre celestial dará el Espíritu Santo a los que lo pidieren de Él?
Si donc, méchants comme vous l'êtes, vous savez donner de bonnes choses à vos enfants, à combien plus forte raison le Père céleste donnera-t-il le Saint-Esprit à ceux qui le lui demandent.
Se voi dunque, essendo malvagi, sapete dar buoni doni ai vostri figliuoli, quanto più il vostro Padre celeste donerà lo Spirito Santo a coloro che glielo domanderanno?
Pois se vós, sendo maus, sabeis dar boas dádivas aos vossos filhos, quanto mais dará o Pai celestial o Espírito Santo àqueles que lho pedirem?
你們雖然不好,尚且知道拿好東西給兒女,何況 天父,他豈不更要把聖靈賜給求他的人嗎?」
