Matthew:18:23-35
rotherham@Matthew:18:23 @ For this cause, hath the kingdom of the heavens become like unto a man, a king, who wished to settle an account with his servants;
rotherham@Matthew:18:24 @ And, when he, began, to settle, there was brought unto him a, certain, debtor, of a thousand talents;
rotherham@Matthew:18:25 @ and, he, not having, wherewith to pay, the master ordered him to be sold, and the wife, and the children, and whatsoever he had, and payment to be made.
rotherham@Matthew:18:26 @ The servant therefore, falling down, began to do homage unto him, saying Have patience with me, and, all, will I pay thee.
rotherham@Matthew:18:27 @ And, moved with compassion, the master of that servant released him, and, the loan, he, forgave, him.
rotherham@Matthew:18:28 @ But that servant, going out, found one of his fellow-servants, who owed him, a hundred denaries, and, laying hold of him, he began seizing him by the throat, saying, Pay! if anything thou owest.
rotherham@Matthew:18:29 @ His fellow servant, therefore, falling down, began beseeching him, saying, Have patience with me! And I will pay thee.
rotherham@Matthew:18:30 @ He, however, would not, but went away and cast him into prison, until he should pay what was owing.
rotherham@Matthew:18:31 @ His fellow-servants, therefore, seeing, the things that were done, were grieved exceedingly, and went and made quite plain to their master all the things which had been done.
rotherham@Matthew:18:32 @ Then, calling him near, his master saith unto him O wicked servant! All that debt, forgave I thee, because thou didst beseech me.
rotherham@Matthew:18:33 @ Was it not binding, upon thee also, to have mercy upon thy fellow-servant, as, I also, on thee, had mercy?
rotherham@Matthew:18:34 @ And, provoked to anger, his master delivered him up to the torturers, until he should pay all that was owing.
rotherham@Matthew:18:35 @ Thus, my heavenly Father also, will do unto you, if ye forgive not each one his brother, from your hearts.
