Matthew 18:21-35

LITV(i) 21 Then coming up to Him, Peter said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times? 22 Jesus said to him, I do not say to you, Until seven times, but, Until seventy times seven. 23 For this reason the kingdom of Heaven has been compared to a man, a king, who decided to take account with his slaves. 24 And when he began to reckon, one debtor of ten thousand talents was brought near to him. 25 But he not having any to pay, the lord commanded him to be sold, also his wife and children, and all things, as much as he had, even to pay back. 26 Then falling down, the slave bowed the knee to him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay all to you. 27 And being filled with pity, the lord of that slave released him and forgave him the loan. 28 But going out, that slave found one of his fellow slaves who owed him a hundred denarii. And seizing him, he choked him, saying, Pay me whatever you owe. 29 Then falling down at his feet, his fellow slave begged him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay all to you. 30 But he would not, but going away he threw him into prison until he pay back the amount owing. 31 But his fellow slaves, seeing the things happening, they were greatly grieved. And coming they reported to their lord all the things happening. 32 Then calling him near, his lord said to him, Wicked slave! I forgave you all that debt, since you begged me. 33 Ought you not also to favor your fellow slave, as I also favored you? 34 And being angry, his lord delivered him up to the tormentors until he pay back all that debt to him. 35 So also My heavenly Father will do to you unless each of you from your hearts forgive his brother their trespasses.
