The Lord’s Prayer in Aramaic

Used with permission from the beloved India Jiva

John 1.1 In the beginning was The Word, and The Word was with God, and godly was The Word.

The definition of godly is, “with reverent love, loyal and dutiful with awe”.

Ancient Aramaic and Hebrew are beautiful, soft and musical, not gutteral.

ܐܒܘܢ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ

Av wun d’ B’shmya

Merciful Father in Shamaya

net qadda shmach

Sacred be Thy Name

tee-ete mal-ku-tach

May Your Kingdom come

neh-weh tsarayanic

May Your will be done

ay kannat b’shmayaph bonop

as so in Shamaya, also in the Earth

Av wun d’ B’shmya

Merciful Father in Shamaya

net qadda shmach

Sacred be Thy Name

tee-ete mal-ku-tach

May Your Kingdom come

neh-weh tsarayanic

May Your will be done

ay kannat b’shmayaph bonop

as so in Shamaya, also in the Earth

havalah lahma d’sunkunana ya manah

Give unto us the bread of our need today

wash-bu-o-qan hau-bayn waha-tym

And forgive us our debt

ay-kana do-phnan sh-bo-qan ahlay-ban

as we have forgiven all who are indebted to us

we-la tah-lan layanes-yu-nah

and do not let us succumb to temptation

ela pa-tsan min bi-sha

but deliver us from evil,

me-tulin dee-la-khe mal-ku-tah

because Yours is The Kingdom

nu-hay-ee bahan, wah-tesh-buhta

and The Power, and The Glory

l’-ah-lam al-min

never ending, eternal

ah-meyn

Amen

me-tulin dee-la-khe mal-ku-tah

because Yours is The Kingdom

nu-hay-ee bahan, wah-tesh-buhta

and The Power, and The Glory

l’-ah-lam al-min

never ending, eternal

ah-meyn

Amen

After the singing, everyone will say

B’eh b’shem Yshoa

In the name of Isho,

ah-meyn

Amen

Understanding “merciful” in the first line.

It takes 53 seconds to say the Lord’s Prayer in Aramaic, even less in English. Isho started every day with prayer so He was always prepared spiritually. Isho was not married. If you are married, see the Spiritual Couples page. It is different for couples and God wants you to be happy about prayer.
