Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on 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. Amen.

It is forgive us our TRESPASSES. Mandela effect changed the Bible verse. Don’t let demon hackers dictate your faith.
I was raised with trespasses however my english standard bible says debts. I like trespasses more to be honest, but I say debts ever since I read that in my bible. Perhaps I should switch back because I have always felt more natural saying trespasses.
Debt had a different meaning back when Jesus said it. Forgive us our debts sounds like a great reset and communism today. Trespasses fits much better within the spirit it was intended.
I believe it was King James who changed it. Why follow what a King says? Also somewhere in the Bible it says something about “those who changes these words”...it’s not good.
I think it was always debts in the literal sense but to better represent the intended meaning some people started saying trespasses so technically he didn't want to change the words even if the words had changed meaning with time. Kind of a tough spot there's an argument for both.
