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