noyes@Matthew:18:21 @ Then came Peter, and said to him, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?

noyes@Matthew:18:22 @ Jesus saith to him, I say not to thee, until seven times, but until seventy times seven.

noyes@Matthew:18:23 @ Therefore the kingdom of heaven is likened to a king, who would settle accounts with his servants.

noyes@Matthew:18:24 @ And when he had begun to reckon, there was brought to him one, who owed him ten thousand talents.

noyes@Matthew:18:25 @ But as he was unable to pay, his lord ordered him to be sold, and his wife and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

noyes@Matthew:18:26 @ Then that servant fell down and did obeisance to him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

noyes@Matthew:18:27 @ And the lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.

noyes@Matthew:18:28 @ But that servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, who owed him a hundred denaries; and he laid hold of him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay what thou owest.

noyes@Matthew:18:29 @ His fellowservant then fell down and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee.

noyes@Matthew:18:30 @ And he would not; but went away and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

noyes@Matthew:18:33 @ shouldst not thou also have had pity on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

noyes@Matthew:18:34 @ And his lord was enraged, and delivered him to the inflicters of punishment, till he should pay all that was due to him.

noyes@Matthew:18:35 @ So also will my heavenly Father do to you, if ye forgive not every one his brother from your hearts.
