El padre nuestro o padrenuestro (en latín, Pater Noster) es el nombre de una oración cristiana elaborada por Jesús de Nazaret según relatan los evangelios de Mateo (Mt 6:9-13) y de Lucas (Lc 11:1-4). De la diferencia en la descripción de las circunstancias y en el estilo del texto de la oración en ambos autores, derivan las diferentes versiones existentes para cada confesión cristiana. El padrenuestro es considerado la oración cristiana común por excelencia por las confesiones mayoritarias; para las iglesias católica, ortodoxa, anglicana y protestantes, es el modelo de oración cristiana. Padre nuestro,que estás en el cielo,santificado sea tu nombre;venga a nosotros tu reino;hágase tu voluntad en la tierra como en el cielo.Danos hoy nuestro pan de cada dîa;y perdona nuestras ofensas,así como nosotros perdonamos a quienes nos ofenden;no nos dejes caer en la tentación,y líbranos del mal. Amen Jesús de Nazaret, Evangelio de Mateo 6:9-13

The Lord's Prayer, also called the Our Father, Pater Noster, and the Model Prayer is a venerated Christian prayer originally recorded in Koine Greek that, according to the New Testament, was taught by Jesus to his disciples. Two forms of it are recorded in the New Testament: a longer form in the Gospel of Matthew as part of the Sermon on the Mount, and a shorter form in the Gospel of Luke as a response by Jesus to a request by "one of his disciples" to teach them "to pray as John taught his disciples." In the fourth petition, the original text of the prayer (in Greek) uniquely contains the word epiousios, which does not appear in any other extant classical or Koine Greek literature, and is also the only adjective in the prayer. The prayer concludes with "deliver us from evil" in Matthew, and with "lead us not into temptation" in Luke. The first three of the seven petitions in Matthew address God; the other four are related to human needs and concerns. The liturgical form is the Matthean. Some Christians, particularly Protestants, conclude the prayer with a doxology, a later addendum appearing in some manuscripts of Matthew. The context of the prayer in Matthew is a discourse deploring people who pray ostentatiously. In biblical criticism, the prayer's absence in the Gospel of Mark together with its occurrence in Matthew and Luke has caused scholars who accept the two-source hypothesis (against other document hypotheses) to conclude that it is probably a logion original to Q. Underscoring the scope and foundational importance of the Lord's Prayer, initial words on the topic from the Catechism of the Catholic Church teach that it "is truly the summary of the whole gospel." On Easter Sunday 2007, it was estimated that many of the two billion Roman Catholic, Anglican, Protestant and Eastern Orthodox Christians who were sharing in the celebration of Easter would read, recite, or sing the short prayer in hundreds of languages. Although theological differences and various modes of worship divide Christians, according to Fuller Seminary professor Clayton Schmit, "there is a sense of solidarity in knowing that Christians around the globe are praying together..., and these words always unite us."
