Nostre Patre, qui es in le celos, que tu nomine sia sanctificate; que tu regno veni; que tu voluntate sia facite super le terra como etiam in le celo.

Da nos hodie nostre pan quotidian, e pardona a nos nostre debitas como nos pardona a nostre debitores, e non duce nos in tentation, sed libera nos del mal.

Wir faither, wha is in heiven, hallaed be thy name; thy kinrick come; thy weel be duin on Yird like in heiven.

Gie’s the day wir daily bit breid, an forgie’s wir dets like we forgie wir dettors, an daenae lead us intae provoktion, but deleever us fae ill.
