Timucua Lord's prayer, version 2
Here is another version of the Lord's Prayer in Timucua (Movilla 1635). Notice that in this one as well, the Timucua says 'may we be given eternal life' instead of 'thy kingdom come'.
The author (or editor) of the second version was Gregorio de Movilla (1635). So a little more than 20 years later, he retained the 'eternal life' part, but simplified the 'being brought together with the Lord in heaven' from the 1612 version.

pred nominal looks like a suspicious gloss for the -lene- after visa 'name'
