Or "our bread till to-morrow," i.e. "daily" in the sense of "till to-morrow." What was directly and immediately for them or their need, and not to surround them with abundance.

W. Kelly Translation

give us today our neededa bread,

WK Translation Notes

a
6:11The rendering of "daily," the context seems to refute as tautology. "Needful" or "sufficient" I believe to be the true thought, in contrast with "abundant," "superfluous," "more than enough." The disciples were not to be anxious for the morrow, but they were to pray for their bread today.
