Matthew:6:5-15
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And when you pray ,
you shall not be as the hypocrites ,
for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the open streets so that they may be seen of men .
Truly I say to you ,
they have their reward .
*
But you ,
when you pray ,
enter into your room and shutting your door ,
pray to your Father in secret .
And your Father seeing in secret will repay you in the open .
*
But when you pray ,
do not babble vain words ,
as the nations ;
for they think that they shall be heard in their much speaking .
*
Then do not be like them ,
for your Father knows what things you have need of before you ask Him .
*
So ,
then ,
you should pray this way :
Our Father who is in Heaven ,
let be sanctified Your name .
*
Let Your kingdom come ;
let Your will be done ,
as it is in Heaven ,
also on the earth .
*
Give us today our daily bread ,
*
and forgive us our debts as we also forgive our debtors .
*
And do not lead us into temptation ,
but deliver us from the evil ,
for Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory to the ages .
Amen .
*
For if you forgive men their offenses ,
your heavenly Father will also forgive you .
*
But if you will not forgive men their offenses ,
neither will your Father forgive your offenses .
