ast year around Christmas, Pope Francis spoke of his desire to update the "lead us not into temptation" part of the Lord's Prayer, arguing that it portrays God in a false light. "A father does not lead into temptation, a father helps you to get up immediately," the Pope said at the time.
"It is not a good translation because it speaks of a God who induces temptation," he added.
Pope Francis also asserted that other translations had already been changed to correct mistakes and to modernize the language. "The French have modified the prayer to βdo not let me fall into temptationβ, because it is me who falls, not the Lord who tempts me to then see how I fall," he said.
