The Lord's Prayer in Hebrew אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם — with transliteration and word-by-word meaning
The Lord's Prayer in Hebrew, as it is said: the Hebrew with full vowel points, every word broken into syllables with the STRESSED syllable in capitals, the meaning of each word beneath it, and the English of every line. Hebrew reads right to left. Tap Listen to hear a line read slowly by a Hebrew voice.
The prayer Yeshua taught His disciples, in the Hebrew of Franz Delitzsch's New Testament.
אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם יִתְקַדַּשׁ שְׁמֶךָ
Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name.
תָּבֹא מַלְכוּתֶךָ יֵעָשֶׂה רְצוֹנְךָ כְּמוֹ בַשָּׁמַיִם כֵּן בָּאָרֶץ
Your kingdom come; Your will be done, as in heaven, so on earth.
אֶת לֶחֶם חֻקֵּנוּ תֶּן לָנוּ הַיּוֹם
Give us today the bread of our portion.
וּסְלַח לָנוּ אֶת חֹבוֹתֵינוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר סָלַחְנוּ גַּם אֲנַחְנוּ לְחַיָּבֵינוּ
And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
וְאַל תְּבִיאֵנוּ לִידֵי נִסָּיוֹן כִּי אִם חַלְּצֵנוּ מִן הָרָע
And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.
כִּי לְךָ הַמַּמְלָכָה וְהַגְּבוּרָה וְהַתִּפְאֶרֶת
For Yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
לְעוֹלְמֵי עוֹלָמִים אָמֵן
for ever and ever. Amen.

How to read the Hebrew
Each card is one word. The Hebrew on top is fully pointed (with nikkud, the vowel marks). Under it the word is spelled out syllable by syllable in English letters, with a slash between syllables; the syllable in CAPITALS carries the stress — in Biblical Hebrew that is usually the last one. The third line is what the word means, with any attached prefix spelled out (and, the, in, to…). Read the cards from right to left, as the Hebrew goes.
