Passage

Matthew 6:5-15

5 “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love xtostand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen byothers. yTruly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 6 But when you pray,zgo into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. aAndyour Father who sees in secret will reward you.

7 “And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as bthe Gentiles do, forcthey think that they will be heard dfor their many words. 8 Do not be like them,efor your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9 fPray then like this:

g“Our Father in heaven,

hhallowed be iyour name.1

10  jYour kingdom come,

kyour will be done,2

lon earth as it is in heaven.

11  mGive us nthis day our daily bread,3

12  and forgive us our debts,

as we also have forgiven our debtors.

13  And olead us not into temptation,

but pdeliver us from qevil.4

14 rFor if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgiveyou, 15 sbut if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Fatherforgive your trespasses.
