Matthew 6:5-15 — Legacy Standard Bible

⁵“And when you pray, you are not to be like the hypocrites; for they love to ^astand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners ¹^,^bso that they may be seen by men. ^cTruly I say to you, they have their reward in full. ⁶“But you, when you pray, ^ago into your inner room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and ^byour Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.

⁷“And when you are praying, do not use meaningless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they suppose that they will be heard for their ^amany words. ⁸“Therefore, do not be like them; for ^ayour Father knows what you need before you ask Him.

⁹“^aPray, then, in this way: ‘Our Father who is in heaven,Hallowed be Your name.

¹⁰‘^aYour kingdom come.^bYour will be done,On earth as it is in heaven.¹¹‘^aGive us this day ¹our daily bread.¹²‘And ^aforgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.¹³‘And do not lead us into temptation, but ^adeliver us from ¹^,^bthe evil one. ²[For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.’]

¹⁴“^aFor if you forgive ¹others for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. ¹⁵“But ^aif you do not forgive ¹others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions.
