7. When you pray, do not babble repetitiously like the Gentiles, because they think that by their many words they will be heard.
8. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
9. So pray this way: Our Father in heaven, may your name be honored,
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 ourselves have forgiven our debtors.
13. And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.
14. “For if you forgive others their sins, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
15. But if you do not forgive others, your Father will not forgive you your sins.
16. “When you fast, do not look sullen like the hypocrites, for they make their faces unattractive so that people will see them fasting. I tell you the truth, they have their reward.
