What book and verse in the Bible can you find the Lords prayer?

Answer 1

THE Lord's Prayer, as given by Jesus Christ in the Sermon on the Mount, is found in The Bible at Matthew chapter 6, verses 9 through 13. Just before giving this prayer, Jesus said: "When praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words."-Matthew 6:7.=Clearly, then, Jesus did not intend that the Lord's Prayer be recited word for word. True, he later repeated this prayer for the benefit of another audience. (Luke 11:2-4) But the wording of the prayer differs somewhat in the Gospel accounts of Matthew and Luke. Moreover, later prayers by Jesus and his disciples did not rigidly adhere to the specific words of his model prayer.=

Answer 2

The Bible doesn't refer to it as "the Lord's Prayer" -- men do -- but, the passage probably in question is found in Matthew 6:9-13; in which Jesus gives us a "general outline" of things to include in a prayer, beginning with the acknowledgement of His Father and the sanctity of His name.

Or, if the question is asking for a real prayer the Lord actually prayed... one place is found on Passover night just before He was arrested; when He asked His Father if He might provide another way to save man other than by the horrible death He was facing:

"...He fell with His face to the ground and prayed, 'My Father, if it be possible, may this cup be taken from Me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.'" (Matt.26:39 NIV)

The Lord also prayed for His disciples and future church, that His Father gave [and is still giving] to Him... which is much longer -- John's 17th chapter.

"...a time is coming, and has come, when you will be scattered, each of you to his own home. You will leave Me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for My Father is with Me. I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." (John 16:32-33 NIV)

"After Jesus said this, He looked toward heaven and PRAYED: 'Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may Glorify you..." (John 17:1-26 NIV)

The Lord prayed often to His Father... and continuously. These are just some examples.

Answer:The words Jesus used to teach His followers to pray can be found in three forms in early Christian literature; Matthew 6:9-13; Luke 11:2-4, and the noncanonical Didache 8:2.

Answer 3

The Lord's Prayer (or model prayer) is found in the Books of Matthew and Luke.

Matthew 6:9-13

New International Version (NIV)

9 "This, then, is how you should pray:

"'Our Father in heaven,

hallowed be your name,

10 your kingdom come,

your will be done,

on earth as it is in heaven.

11 Give us today our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts,

as we also have forgiven our debtors.

13 And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from the evil one.

However, the verses before this are also very important.

Matthew 6:5-8

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

5 "When you pray, you are not to be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners [d]so that they may be seen by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. 6 But you, when you pray, go into your inner room, close your door and pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.

7 "And when you are praying, do not use meaningless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they suppose that they will be heard for their many words. 8 So do not be like them; for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.

The expression "do not use meaningless repetition" indicates that the following prayer was to be a guideline - not a repeated over and over prayer.

This is also supported by the same account in Luke.

Luke 11:1-5

New International Version (NIV)

11 One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him,

"Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples."

2 He said to them, "When you pray, say:

"'Father,

hallowed be your name,

your kingdom come.

3 Give us each day our daily bread.

4 Forgive us our sins,

for we also forgive everyone who sins against us.

And lead us not into temptation.

Another answer:

The above passages that men have come to call "The Lord's Prayer" is not labeled as such in the Bible. It's only a "prayer outline" that Jesus teaches as to the basic elements to include in our prayers to the Father in heaven.

The REAL "LORD's Prayer" -- the ACTUAL PRAYER that Jesus prayed to His Father, is the 17th chapter of John's gospel:

"When Jesus had finished saying all these things [in chapter 16], He LOOKED UP TO HEAVEN AND SAID, 'FATHER..." (John 17:1 NLT New Living Translation).

...or...

"He went on a little farther and fell face down on the ground, PRAYING, 'MY FATHER! If it is possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from Me. Yet I want your will, not mine.'" (Matt.26:39 NLT)

Answer 4

A:

The Lord's prayer is found in two places in the Bible. The first is at Matthew 6:9-15, where it is part of the Sermon on the Mount and is taught by Jesus to the thousands present. The second is in Luke 11:1-4, where Jesus was alone with the disciples, one of whom asked Jesus to teach them how to pray. Scholars explain that the reason for the two different contexts is that the Lord's Prayer originated from the hypothetical 'Q' document, which provided a source of sayings attributed to Jesus but did not provide the context for those sayings. The authors of Matthew and Luke copied the words from Q, but each author had to provide his own context in which to present them.

Answer 5

What is incorrectly called the 'Lord's Prayer' is found in Matthew 6:9-13 and agaon in Luke 11:2-4. This is a 'model prayer' a teaching how to pray. The actual prayer of the Lord is found in John 17.

Answer 6

It all depends on what chapter and verse you are reading and if its in red righting............
