Matthew 18 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
23 Therefore is the Kingdom of Heaven likened to a man being a king, that would make an account with his servants.
24 And when he began to make the account, there was one presented unto him that owed him ten thousand talents.
25 And having not whence to repay it, his Lord commanded that he should be sold, and his wife and children, and all that he had, and it to be repaid.
26 But that servant falling down, besought him, saying: Have patience toward me, and I will repay thee all,
27 And the Lord of that servant moved with pity, dismissed him, and the debt he forgave him.
28 And when that servant was gone forth, he found one of his fellow-servants that did owe him an hundred pence: and laying hands upon him throttled him, saying: Repay that thou owest.
29 And his fellow-servant falling down, besought him, saying: Have patience toward me, and I will repay thee all.
30 And he would not: but went his way, and cast him into prison, till he repaid the debt.
31 And his fellow-servants seeing what was done, were very sorry, and they came, and told their Lord all that was done.
32 Then his Lord called him; and he said unto him: Thou ungracious servant, I forgave thee all the debt, because thou besoughtest me:
33 oughtest not thou therefore also to have mercy upon thy fellow-servant, even as I had mercy upon thee?
