The Lord’s Prayer KJV: Matthew 6:9–13
Here is the Lord’s Prayer in the King James Version, word for word as it appears in the printable.
“After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.”
The Lord’s Prayer in Luke 11
Luke gives a shorter form of the prayer. It came after one of the disciples asked, “Lord, teach us to pray” (Luke 11:1). In the KJV it reads:
“And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.”
Matthew has “in earth, as it is in heaven” and “this day”; Luke has “as in heaven, so in earth” and “day by day”. Matthew says “debts” and “debtors”; Luke says “sins” and “every one that is indebted to us”. Luke’s version ends at “deliver us from evil”.
“For thine is the kingdom”: why some Bibles leave it out
The closing words “For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.” are part of Matthew 6:13 in the KJV, and this printable keeps them. The KJV translators (1611) worked from Greek texts that include them. Many of the oldest Greek manuscripts known today end at “deliver us from evil”, so most modern translations put the closing words in a footnote or leave them out. The words echo David’s prayer in 1 Chronicles 29:11. Many churches pray them; some stop before them.
“Debts” or “trespasses”?
Many churches pray “forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us”. That wording goes back to English prayer books such as the Book of Common Prayer (first published in 1549), not to the KJV. The KJV of Matthew 6:12 says “debts” and “debtors”, and Jesus speaks of trespasses in the next verse:
“For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:”
Lord’s Prayer wall art and large print
Page 3 is a framed print of the prayer, from “Our Father” to “Amen.”. It fits an 8×10 in frame when printed with “Fit to page”, or an A4 frame from the A4 PDF. Page 4 sets Matthew 6:9–13 at about 32 pt for anyone who finds small print hard to read. Page 5 is a “Thy will be done” typography print. White card stock or matte photo paper works best.
Lord’s Prayer coloring pages
Three free coloring pages with outline lettering and a scene. Our Father which art in heaven (verse 9): a sunrise over rolling hills. Give us this day our daily bread (verse 11): loaves, a basket of rolls and a sheaf of wheat on a checked tablecloth. Thine is the kingdom (verse 13): a crown with laurel branches above the clouds. Each page also prints the whole verse.
The Lord’s Prayer for kids: learn it in a week
The 7-day plan adds a line or two each day, and on day 7 children pray the whole prayer. The first-letter prompts (for example “G u t d o d b.” for “Give us this day our daily bread.”) help them recall each line without reading it. The fill-in worksheet then checks 14 key words, with the answer key on a separate page so teachers can keep it back. When they know it, they can test themselves with the Lord’s Prayer puzzle in the free Bible crossword puzzles.

Frequently asked questions
Is this Lord's Prayer printable really free?
Yes. All 17 pages are free to download and print for personal, family, classroom and church use. Please share the page link rather than the file, and don’t resell it.
Which Bible version is it?
The King James Version (KJV), Matthew 6:9–13, word for word. That is why it reads “Our Father which art in heaven”, “Thy will be done in earth” and “forgive us our debts”. Luke’s shorter KJV version (Luke 11:2–4) is on page 15.
Does it include "For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory"?
Yes, because the KJV prints those words in Matthew 6:13. Many of the oldest Greek manuscripts end the prayer at “deliver us from evil”, so most modern translations put the closing words in a footnote. Page 15 explains this in a few lines.
Why does it say "debts" and not "trespasses"?
Because the KJV of Matthew 6:12 says “forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors”. The familiar “trespasses” wording goes back to English prayer books such as the Book of Common Prayer (1549). Jesus does use the word “trespasses” in the next verse, Matthew 6:14.
What is the difference between the Lord's Prayer in Matthew and Luke?
Matthew’s version is part of the Sermon on the Mount; Luke’s came after a disciple asked, “Lord, teach us to pray”. Luke’s is shorter, says “sins” instead of “debts” and “day by day” instead of “this day”, and ends at “deliver us from evil”.
Are there Lord's Prayer coloring pages?
Yes, three: “Our Father which art in heaven”, “Give us this day our daily bread” and “Thine is the kingdom”. Each has outline letters and a scene to color, in black line art that prints well on any home printer.
How can kids memorize the Lord's Prayer?
Use the 7-day plan on page 12: a line or two a day, with first-letter prompts to practise from. On day 7 they pray the whole prayer. The copywork pages and the fill-in worksheet (answer key on a separate page) help it stick.
Is there a large print Lord's Prayer?
Yes. Page 4 prints Matthew 6:9–13 at about 32 pt on one page. For even bigger text, print it on tabloid (11 × 17 in) or A3 paper with “Fit to page”.
Free for personal, family, classroom and church use. Please share the page link rather than the file, and don’t resell. Scripture from the King James Version (public domain in the US).
