Luke 11:5-9
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 a because he is his friend, yet because of his impudence ▼

Or persistence
he will rise and give him whatever he needs. 9 And I tell you c ask, and d it will be given to you; e seek, and you will find; f knock, and it will be opened to you.
