" to bring to, to lead." Jesus was led into the wilderness to be tempted. (Matt 4.1) If Jesus could be we can too. Ps 23 speaks of green grass and the valley of the shadow of death, of being in the presence of your enemies. Ps 23 is all about all of our life. You will find your self there. The point of the Ps23 is if you follow the shepherd you will follow him through many different times, to the Father's' house. One of those times if life is temptation.
Now back to the Lord's prayer of Matt 6.
. All Jesus is doing is giving us permission to ask to not be lead to a place to be tempted. We can ask but sometimes the answer is NO and in we must go.
Pope can only try to change a translation, He can not change the truth. "..lead us not into temptation.." will still be here long after the Pope is gone
