On June 6, the secular media reported that Pope Francis “changed” the text of the Lord’s Prayer from “lead us not into temptation” to “Do not let us fall into temptation.”   Pope Francis rightfully stated that God never leads us into temptation. 
 
As many of you know, a new translation of a liturgical text will not be announced through the secular media.  What happened?  Many of the news outlets reported on a translation in Europe and erroneously extended it to the United States.   
 
The conference of bishops in Italy had recently approved an Italian translation to the Roman Missale, terza edizione.  Pope Francis approved this edition and was explaining his approval of the new translation of the Lord’s Prayer and the theology behind it.  (In other languages, too, the phrase better translates into “do not let us fall into temptation.”)
 
In 2010, the USCCB voted to keep the traditional translation of the Lord’s Prayer in the English translation of the Roman Missal, third edition.  They even retained “thy” and “thou” because the words were most familiar to the faithful.  Until you hear otherwise, this remains the official translation for the dioceses of the United States.  There are no plans at this time to revisit that translation.
