KJV, Matthew 6:9-13, After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

At issue are how singular pronouns are distinguished from their plural. Most modern translation do not do so.

The Lord’s Prayer does not need to be updated. We should not change the words of scripture.

All the Bible’s that we use today are updates of other updates of other updates from the original bible., without changing the core message. The Bible has been updated many times to make it clearer and easier for different generations to understand it, without changing the core message. If the original bible had not been updated, you and I, and everyone living today would not understand it. In our time, we have dozens of different bibles, but the core message is the same Every few generations, language evolves or changes, and so must the Bible. And there is no doubt, that in the future, more updates of the Bible will be made, without changing the core message. Different bibles use different words or phrases to say the same thing!
