Matthew 6:9-18
Christian Standard Bible
The Lord’s Prayer
9 “Therefore, you should pray like this: (A)
Our Father in heaven,
your name be honored as holy.(B)
10 Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.(C)
11 Give us today our daily bread.[a]
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.(D)
13 And do not bring us into[b] temptation,(E)
but deliver us from the evil one.[c](F)
14 “For if you forgive others their offenses, your heavenly Father will forgive you as well.(G) 15 But if you don’t forgive others,[d] your Father will not forgive your offenses.
How to Fast
16 “Whenever you fast, don’t be gloomy like the hypocrites. For they disfigure their faces (H) so that their fasting is obvious to people. Truly I tell you, they have their reward. 17 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face,(I) 18 so that your fasting isn’t obvious to others but to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.[e]

Matthew 6:9-18
New International Version
9 “This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father(A) in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom(B) come,
your will be done,(C)
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.(D)
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.(E)
13 And lead us not into temptation,[a](F)
but deliver us from the evil one.[b]’(G)
14 For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.(H) 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.(I)
Fasting
16 “When you fast,(J) do not look somber(K) as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 17 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, 18 so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.(L)
