SCRIPTURE

"And forgive us our sins; for we ourselves also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And bring us not into temptation." — Luke 11:4 (ASV)

And forgive us our sins;

We also need to pray this prayer; I do not think that our Savior ever anticipated a time when his disciples on earth would not need to pray, Forgive us our sins.

For we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation;

"Lord, do not try us and test us more than is absolutely necessary, for we are so apt to fall: Lead us not into temptation; but, if we must be tempted," —

Deliver us from evil.

"If some good end is to be answered by our being thus tested, then let it be so, but, O Lord, deliver us from evil, and especially from the evil one; do not let us fall into his hands in the hour of temptation."
