6:5 “Whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, because they love to pray while standing in synagogues7 and on street corners so that people can see them. Truly I say to you, they have their reward. 6:6 But whenever you pray, go into your room,8 close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.9 6:7 When10 you pray, do not babble repetitiously like the Gentiles, because they think that by their many words they will be heard. 6:8 Do11 not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 6:9 So pray this way:12
Our Father13 in heaven, may your name be honored,14
6:10 may your kingdom come,15
may your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
6:11 Give us today our daily bread,16
6:12 and forgive us our debts, as we ourselves17 have forgiven our debtors.
6:13 And do not lead us into temptation,18 but deliver us from the evil one.19
6:14 “For if you forgive others20 their sins, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 6:15 But if you do not forgive others, your Father will not forgive you your sins.
