Wi Tata, di dè n'in' Hemel
Almost everybody in Suriname is religious. Suriname has many Christians, Muslims and Hindu people amongst others. The Surinamese word for God is Gado. Many persons use this prayer in combination with the Hail Mary prayer.
Our Father Prayer - Surinamish Version
Wi Tata, di dè n'in' Hemel;
Bresi sa dè Joe Nen!
Joe kondre kon,
Joe wani moe p'sa
Na in' grontapoe soleki in' paradijs
Gi wi noja wi dé-brede;
Gi wi pardon foe ala wi sondoe;
Soleki wi gi trawan pardon;
No tjari oenoe na ini tèsi;
Fri wi foe ogri alaten;
Bika' J'ab' na kondre,
Na makt' nanga glori
Foe tego nanga tego;
Amen.

Hallowed be Thy Name;

Our Father Prayer - Dutch Version
Onze Vader, die in de hemel zijt,
Uw naam worde geheiligd,
Uw Koninkrijk kome,
Uw wil geschiede,
Op aarde zoals in de Hemel,
Geef ons heden ons dagelijks brood,
En vergeef ons onze schuld,
Zoals ook wij aan anderen hun schuld vergeven,
En leid ons niet in bekoring,
Maar verlos ons van het kwade,
Want van U is het koninkrijk,
En de kracht en de heerlijkheid,
Tot in eeuwigheid.
Amen.
