For me, it's a wonder, why the Catholics, when they prayed the Lord's prayer they stopped just before the end. That is causing me to think that may be the power and the glory may not truly belong to God; whereas, I must be thinking wrongly, for it's written that all power and glory belong to God! There is no doubt that one of you should be able to put me right about that! Thanks!

In the Greek original of the New Testament, (Matthew 6:9-13), the last verse of the
Lordʻs Prayer is 6:13:
"kai me eisenengkes hemas eis perasmon, allaʻ rhusai hemas apo tou ponerou." - -usually translated as "and lead us not into temptation#,
but deliver us from evil."
(No "for thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever and ever.")
The explanation we were given in Catholic school (8th grade) was that the last twelve words:
"For thine is the kingdom, etc"* were the motto of a medieval religious house of monks who did the
copying of New Testament manuscripts, and that, in copying, they always added their motto to the closing of the Lordʻs prayer as Matthew gives it.

# temptation: has also been translated as "trial".

*the Greek of the final verse
(whether so intended by Matthew or not) is given as a footnote in my edition of the NT. ( The Greek New Testament; ed.. by Kurt Aland (et al.). . .3rd ed.
Muenster, West Germany,
United Bible societies, 1975)
It is a Protestant edition:
". . . Amen. (following "ponerou"/"From evil") hoti sou estin he basileia, kai he dunamis, kai he doxa eis tous
aionas. Amen."

Most early greek versions of Matthew include "for thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever and ever." some do not. the catholic church considers these latter to be the original and the additional lines a doxology, interpolated later. the protestant church disagrees, I can not say what the other churches think.
