Matthew 18:21–35

²¹Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, ^khow oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? ^ltill seven times? ²²Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, ^mUntil seventy times seven. ²³Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would ⁿtake account of his servants. ²⁴And when he had begun to ⁿreckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand ^||talents. ²⁵But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be ^osold, and his wife, and ^pchildren, and all that he had, and payment to be made. ²⁶The servant therefore fell down, and ^||worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. ²⁷Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt. ²⁸But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred ^||pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest. ²⁹And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and ^qbesought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. ³⁰And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt. ³¹So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and ^rtold unto their lord all that was done. ³²Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou ^qdesiredst me: ³³Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee? ³⁴And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. ^35sSo likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
