Thy kingdom come. 3 Give us each day our daily bread; 4 and forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive every one who is indebted to us; and lead us not into temptation." 5 And he said to them, "Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight and say to him, 'Friend, lend me three loaves; 6 for a friend of mine has arrived on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him'; 7 and he will answer from within, 'Do not bother me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot get up and give you anything'? 8 I tell you, though he will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him whatever he needs. 9 And I tell you, Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 10 For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he said unto them,.... That is Jesus, as the Syriac and Persic versions express, who directed his speech to all the disciples; for though but one of them addressed him, it was in the name of the rest: and besides, the instructions Christ was about to give concerned them all, even those that heard them before, and those that had not:
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; the last petition is left out in the Vulgate Latin;

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 6:9-13.
Luke 11:4
For we also forgive ... - This is somewhat different from the expression in Matthew, though the sense is the same. The idea is, that unless we forgive others, God will not forgive us; and unless we come to him âreallyâ forgiving all others, we cannot expect pardon. It does not mean that by forgiving others we âdeserveâ forgiveness ourselves, or âmerit it,â but that this is a disposition or state of mind without which God cannot consistently pardon us.
Every one that is indebted to us - Every one that has âinjuredâ us. This does not refer to pecuniary transactions, but to offences similar to those which âweâ have committed against God, and for which we ask forgiveness. Besides the variations in the âexpressionsâ in this prayer, Luke has omitted the doxology, or close, altogether; and this shows that Jesus did nor intend that we should always use just this âform,â but that it was a general direction how to pray; or, rather, that we were to pray for these âthings,â though not always using the same words.
