Try the Christian Website in your searchbox or if you have a store near you , the book Good News for Modern Man is a modern version of the bible from the Lutheran Church, Missouri Synod.

Yes, I did a similar project and used the stuff on Christus Rex about the Convent of the Pater Noster. It has 1,393 language versions. Here's the link:

Answer 4

Why sould anyone want to ever change the Lord's Prayer? The Lord's Prayer that is in the Bible is the only one. The correct one. One does not change the words of our Lord.

Answer 7

Modern version:
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your Kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins,
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours.
Now and for ever. Amen


Early Modern English (1500-1700)

Book of Common Prayer (1559)
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 trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation. But deliver us from evil. Amen.
(Morning prayer; modern spelling edition, ed. Booty (1976))

The Geneva Bible (1602)
Our Father which art in heauen, hallowed be thy Name.
Thy kingdome come. Thy will be done euen in earth, as it is in heauen.
Giue vs this day our daily bread.
And forgiue vs our debts, as we also forgiue our debters.
And lead vs not into tentation, but deliuer vs from euill: for thine is the kingdome, and the power, and the glory for euer. Amen.
(1607 printing, ed. Sheppard (1989))

The King James Bible (1611)
Our father which art in heauen, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdome come. Thy will be done, in earth, as it is in heauen.

And lead vs not into temptation, but deliuer vs from euill: For thine is the kingdome, and the power, and the glory, for euer, Amen.

For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

The New Testament in Modern English (1963, tr. Phillips)
Our Heavenly Father, may your name be honored;
May your kingdom come, and your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day the bread we need,
Forgive us what we owe to you, as we have also forgiven those who owe anything to us.
Keep us clear of temptation, and save us from evil.

Our Father in Heaven,
let your holy name be known,
let your kingdom come,
and your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today the bread that we need,
and forgive us our wrongs,
as we forgive those
who have done wrong to us.
Do not lead us into trial,
but save us from evil.
