7 d“And when you pray, do not eheap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their fmany words. 8 Do not be like them, gfor your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9 Pray then like this:
“Our Father in heaven,
10 Your ikingdom come,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our kdaily bread,3
12 and lforgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And mlead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.4
14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, 15 nbut if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
