Our Father in heaven,
help us to honor
    your name.
10 Come and set up
    your kingdom,
so that everyone on earth
    will obey you,
as you are obeyed
    in heaven.
11 Give us our food for today.[a]
12 Forgive us for doing wrong,
    as we forgive others.
13 Keep us from being tempted[b]
    and protect us from evil.[c]
