The Lord’s Prayer – Middle English

This is the Middle English version of the Lord’s Prayer.

Oure fadir that art in heuenes,

halewid be thi name;

thi kyngdoom come to;

be thi wille don, in erthe as in heuene.

Yyue to vs this dai oure breed ouer othir

substaunce,

and foryyue to vs oure dettis, as we foryyuen to oure dettouris;

and lede vs not in to temptacioun,

but delyuere vs fro yuel.

Amen.
