He was praying in a certain place, and after he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, ‘Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.’ He said to them, ‘When you pray, say: Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive everyone indebted to us. And do not bring us to the time of trial. (Luke 11:1-4)

Luke remembers the teaching a bit differently than Matthew (6:9-13). But in each case we are to pray for the coming of the kingdom of God.

The Greek is erchomai which means to arrive, arise, appear, or to exert influence.

Matthew's teaching goes on to ask that the Father's will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Luke does not highlight the two dimensions. Here we simply ask for the reign and rule of God to come forth.

We are not asking for death or the destruction or the world. We do ask for what we need to live, to forgive others, to be forgiven, and to avoid the time of trial.

The Greek word used here for trial or temptation is peirasmos which is more literally an experiment or test. In his study of the Odyssey Jeffrey Barnouw writes, "Testing occurs in different contexts and functions in the Odyssey, sometimes explicitly using signs to test someone or a claim. It is expressed by forms of the verb peiran ('to make trial of, test, put to proof' but also "try" in the sense of "attempt"), and the sense of trial and attempt carries over into that of experience in the later Greek term, peria, root of the English "empirical" and via Latin experiri, "experience." More on peirasmous is available from Jeffrey Gibson.
