12 and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

18 that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

18 so that people won't see you're fasting, and your unseen Father who sees what happens in private will reward you.
