I prefer the good old King James Version version of the Lord's Prayer.
This.  Many manuscripts do not contain any of the prayer after "deliver us from evil," but as a child, I was taught to say it as my bedtime prayer, including "for Thine is the kingdom..." on.  And yes, it was based on the KJV's translation.  But "hallowed" was pronounced with two syllables instead of three.

I was also taught the version that uses "debts" instead of "trespasses."  My uncle is an LCMS minister, however, and they recite it with "trespasses" every week.

I'll just give you the version I was taught to say before bed:

Or let me put it this way: I prefer the Protestant version because I don't recite the Hail Mary afterwards; that prayer, and every other Catholic "prayer" to the saints is blasphemous idolatry.
