Context of Luke 11:2

1One day, Jesus was praying in a certain place. He finished praying. Then, one of his disciples said to him, ‘Master, John taught his disciples how to pray. Please teach us as he did.’ Jesus replied, ‘When you pray, you should say this: “God, our Father, we want people to give honour to you. We want the day when you rule everyone to come soon. 3Please give to us the food that we need each day. 4Forgive us for our sins, because we also forgive everyone who has done wrong things against us. And do not let us agree to do wrong things.” ’
