7“And when you are praying, do not use thoughtless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard because of their many words. 8So do not be like them; for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.
14For if you forgive other people for their offenses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15But if you do not forgive other people, then your Father will not forgive your offenses.
