The Lord's Prayer appears in two places in the New Testament:
Matthew 6:9-13 and Luke 11:2-4.
This is posted as a reference for "Through a Different Lens" message responses from 9/12/21 through 10/17/21.
Matthew 6 (NIV): |
Luke 11 (NIV): |
9. This, then, is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, |
2a. He said to them, “When you pray, say:
'Our Father, who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name. |
10. your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. |
2b. Your kingdom come; Your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. |
11. Give us today our daily bread. |
3. Give us each day our daily bread. |
12. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. |
4a. And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. |
13. And lead us not into temptation,[a] but deliver us from the evil one.[b]’ |
4b. And lead us not into temptation [KJV: but deliver us from evil]. |
Some Matthew manuscripts contain a doxology: For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. |
No Luke manuscript contains a doxology |
Jamie included for group's discussion sake: 14. For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. |
