  • Conclusion

KJV: 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.

NIV: And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.

ESV: And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

CSB: And do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.

External evidence

Probably added very early; it does occur in the Didache, written at the end of the first century.

Internal evidence

There is no reason to drop the phrase. It was apparently added to give a flourish to the end of the prayer based on 1 Chronicles 29:11.

UBS gives the omission of the words an A rating.
