Jesus said: “Who of you will have a friend and will go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘ Friend, loan me three loaves, because a friend of mine has just come to me on a journey and I have nothing to set before him ’? And that one from inside says in reply, ‘ Quit making me trouble. The door is already locked, and my young children are with me in bed; I cannot rise up and give you anything. ’
Jēzus stāstīja: ” Kuram jūsu starpā ir draugs, ja viņš pie tā noietu nakts vidū un tam teiktu: Mīļais, aizdod man trīs maizes, jo mans draugs no ceļa pie manis ir iegriezies, bet man nekā nav ko viņam celt priekšā; — un tas no iekšpuses atbildētu un sacītu: Neapgrūtini mani; durvis ir jau aizslēgtas, un mani bērni ir jau pie manis gultā: es nevaru celties un tev dot.
