Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread {“Bread” (לחם)}. 12 And forgive {“Forgive” (מחול)} us our debts, as we also have forgiven {“Forgive” (מחול)} our debtors {“Sinners” (לחוטאים)}. 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from {“From” (מכל)} the evil one.’ 14 For if you forgive {“Forgive” (מחול)} men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive {“Forgive” (מחול)} you. 15 But if you do not forgive {“Forgive” (מחול)} men {“Them” (להם)}, neither will your Father forgive {“Forgive” (מחול)} {“You” (לכם)} {“Your” (לכם)} your trespasses.
