Matthew 6:7-15
Revised Standard Version
7 “And in praying do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9 Pray then like this:
Our Father who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread;[a]
12 And forgive us our debts,
As we also have forgiven our debtors;
13 And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.[b]
14 For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father also will forgive you; 15 but if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Matthew 6:7-15
New International Version
7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling(A) like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.(B) 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need(C) before you ask him.
9 “This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father(D) in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom(E) come,
your will be done,(F)
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.(G)
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.(H)
13 And lead us not into temptation,[a](I)
but deliver us from the evil one.[b]’(J)
14 For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.(K) 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.(L)
