Pope Francis reportedly approved changes to the wording of the Lord's Prayer, also known as the Our Father.
Instead of saying, "Lead us not into temptation," Catholics will say, "Do not let us fall into temptation," The Guardian and Fox News reported.
The pope said he thought the English translation of the prayer was not correct.
"It is not a good translation because it speaks of a God who induces temptation," he told Italy’s TV2000 channel in 2017, per The Guardian. "I am the one who falls. It’s not him pushing me into temptation to then see how I have fallen.

"A father doesn’t do that; a father helps you to get up immediately. It’s Satan who leads us into temptation, that’s his department."
The Lord's Prayer comes from the Gospels in which Jesus taught his disciples the prayer. It is among the most sacred prayers in both Catholicism and Christianity overall, though there are other translations across denominations.
Francis also reportedly approved changes to The Gloria from "peace on Earth to people of good will" to "peace on Earth to people beloved by God."
