Exegesis
The verse is a single complex sentence composed of coordinated clauses linked by kai {καὶ | kaí} “and.”
The final clause, introduced by kai mē {καὶ μὴ | kaí mē}, uses the aorist subjunctive eisenenkēs {εἰσενέγκῃς | eis-enénkēs} with the prohibitive particle mē to express a request, “do not bring,” taking hēmas {ἡμᾶς | hēmâs} as direct object and the prepositional phrase eis peirasmon {εἰς πειρασμόν | eis peirasmón} “into temptation” as destination. The sequence moves from forgiveness requested, to forgiveness practiced, to protection sought, shaping a progression from past guilt to present practice and future testing, which guided the rendering of verbal aspects and clause connections in English.
In context — Luke 11:4
And forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us; and do not bring us into temptation.
