🕊️ The Lord’s Prayer in Galilean Aramaic 🕊️
(With Pronunciation & Meaning)
This is likely how Yeshua (Jesus) would have said it—in the gentle, melodic tones of Galilee. 🌾
➤ "Our Father in the heavens"
➤ "Let your Name be sanctified (made holy)"
➤ "Let your Kingdom come"
➤ "Let your will be done"
➤ "As in heaven, so also on earth"
➤ "Give us today our daily bread"
➤ "And forgive us our sins"
➤ "As we also have forgiven those who sin against us"
➤ "And do not bring us into trial (testing)"
➤ "But rescue us from evil"
➤For Yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever and ever. Amen.
📜 Abbaun d'bishmaya (AH-bah-oon duh-bih-SHMAH-yah)
➤ "Our Father in the heavens"
("Abbaun" = our Father, "bishmaya" = in the heavens)
📜 Nithqaddash shmakh (neeth-KAHD-dahsh shmaakh)
➤ "Let your Name be sanctified (made holy)"
("Nithqaddash" = be sanctified, "shmakh" = your name)
📜 Tethe malkuthakh (TEH-theh mahl-KOO-thakh)
➤ "Let your Kingdom come"
("Tethe" = let come, "malkuthakh" = your kingdom)
📜 Nehwe tzav'yanakh (NEH-weh tzahv-YAH-nakh)

📜 Aykana d'bishmaya ap b'ar'a (EYE-kah-nah duh-bih-SHMAH-yah ahp bahr-AH)
➤ "As in heaven, so also on earth"
("Aykana" = just as, "ap" = also, "b'ar'a" = in the earth)
📜 Hav lan lachma d'sunqanan yaomana
(hahv lahn LAHK-mah duh-soon-KAH-nahn yah-oh-MAH-nah)
➤ "Give us today our daily bread"
("Hav lan" = give us, "lachma" = bread, "d'sunqanan" = of our need, "yaomana" = daily)
📜 Washboq lan khattayain (wahsh-BOHK lahn khaht-tah-YAH-een)
➤ "And forgive us our sins"
("Washboq" = forgive, "khattayain" = our sins)
📜 Aykana d'ap khnan shbaqan l'khayyabayn
(eye-KAH-nah dah ahf khnahn shbah-KAHN l'khah-yah-BAH-een)
➤ "As we also have forgiven those who sin against us"
("Aykana" = just as, "d'ap khnan" = also we, "shbaqan" = have forgiven, "l'khayyabayn" = to our debtors/sinners)
📜 W'la ta'alun l'nesyuna (wuh-lah tah-ah-LOON l'neh-soo-YAH-nah)
➤ "And do not bring us into trial (testing)"
("La ta'alun" = do not bring us, "l'nesyuna" = into trial/testing)
📜 Ela patzan min bisha (eh-LAH paht-ZAHN meen BEE-shah)
➤ "But rescue us from evil"
("Ela" = but, "patzan" = deliver/rescue, "min bisha" = from evil)
➤For Yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever and ever. Amen.
🧠 Key Takeaways
• "Abbaun" is likely the actual word Jesus used—just like He prayed in Mark 14:36.
• "Khattayain" = “sins,” not “debts”—a clearer, Galilean term.
• Galilean Aramaic had a softer, musical tone, like the “accent” of northern Israel.

🕎 Hebrew Worldview Notes:
“Father in Heaven” is not distant—it’s intimate, yet majestic
"Sanctify Your Name" = live in a way that brings honor to YHWH
"Daily bread" = both literal and spiritual provision
"Debts" = not financial, but moral failings—Torah-based responsibility
"Testing" = trials of loyalty, not temptation to sin
"Deliver from evil" = rescue from dysfunction, not a cosmic devil
