Matthew 6:7-13
Contemporary English Version
7 (A) When you pray, don't talk on and on as people do who don't know God. They think God likes to hear long prayers. 8 Don't be like them. Your Father knows what you need even before you ask.
9 You should pray like this:
Our Father in heaven,
help us to honor
your name.
10 Come and set up
your kingdom,
so that everyone on earth
will obey you,
as you are obeyed
in heaven.
11 Give us our food for today.[a]
12 Forgive us for doing wrong,
as we forgive others.
13 Keep us from being tempted[b]
and protect us from evil.[c]
