Luke 11:9

9 “So ^{▼▼ Here καί (kai, from καγώ [kagō]) has been translated as “so” to indicate the conclusion drawn from the preceding parable.} I tell you: Ask, ^{▼▼ The three present imperatives in this verse (Ask…seek…knock) are probably intended to call for a repeated or continual approach before God.} and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door ^{▼▼ Grk “it”; the referent (a door) is implied by the context and has been specified in the translation for clarity.} will be opened for you.
