"Forgive us our debts, as we have forgiven our debtors"
In this context, the word "debts" is another word for sins. (Luke 11:4) All humans sin and need forgiveness. But if we want to receive God's forgiveness, we must be willing to forgive others for their sins against us. - MATTHEW 6:14, 15.
"Do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the wicked one"
Jehovah God never tempts us to do wrong. (James 1:13) But we are tempted by "the wicked one," Satan the Devil-who is also called "the Tempter." (1 John 5:19; Matthew 4:1-4) We ask that Jehovah not permit us to give in when we are tempted to disobey him.
