Matthew 6:7-16 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

7. “But when you pray, do not babble repetitiously like the pagans, for they think that because of their many words they will be heard.

8. Therefore do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

9. Therefore you pray in this way: “Our Father who is in heaven, may your name be treated as holy.

10. May your kingdom come, may your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

11. Give us today our daily bread,

12. and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.

13. And do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.

14. For if you forgive people their sins, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

15. But if you do not forgive people, neither will your Father forgive your sins.

16. “Whenever you fast, do not be sullen like the hypocrites, for they make their faces unrecognizable in order that they may be seen fasting by people. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward in full!
