The Lord's Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven; Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
ἁγιασθήτω τό ὄνομά σου,
ἐλθέτω ἡ βασιλεία σου, γενηθήτω τό θέλημά σου,
ὡς ἐν οὐρανῷ καί ἐπί τῆς γῆς.
Τόν ἄρτον ἡμῶν τόν ἐπιούσιον
δός ἡμῖν σήμερον·
καί ἄφες ἡμῖν τά ὀφειλήματα ἡμῶν,
ὡς καί ἡμεῖς ἀφίεμεν τοῖς ὀφειλέταις ἡμῶν·
καί μή εἰσενέγκης ἡμᾶς εἰς πειρασμόν,
ἀλλά ῥῦσαι ἡμᾶς ἀπό τοῦ πoνηροῦ.
Padre nuestro que estás en el cielo, santificado sea tu Nombre;
venga a nosotros su reino;
hágase señor su voluntad, en la tierra como en el cielo;
danos hoy nuestro pan esencial;
perdonas nuestras ofensas, así como nosotros perdonamos a los que nos ofenden;
no nos dejes caer en la tentación y líbranos de malo.
