Matthew 18:21-26
21ThenG5119 PeterG4074 cameG4334 upG4334 and saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, 1howG4212 manyG4212 timesG4212 shall my brotherG80 sinG264 againstG1519 me and I still forgiveG863 him? Up to 2sevenG2034 timesG2034?” 22JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “I do not sayG3004 to you, up to sevenG2034 timesG2034, but up to 34seventy-sevenG1441G2033 timesG1441.
23“For thisG3778 reasonG1223 5the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 6isG3666 likeG3666 a kingG935 whoG3739 wantedG2309 to 7settleG4868 accountsG3056 with his slavesG1401. 24And when he had begunG757 to settleG4868 them, oneG1520 who owedG3781 him 8tenG3463 thousandG3463 talentsG5007 was broughtG4317 to him. 25But since he 910did not haveG2192 the means to repayG591, his masterG2962 commandedG2753 that he 11be soldG4097, alongG2532 with his wifeG1135 and childrenG5043 and allG3956 that he hadG2192, and repaymentG591 be madeG591. 26SoG3767 the slaveG1401 fellG4098 to the ground and 12prostratedG4352 himselfG4352 beforeG4352 him, sayingG3004, ‘HaveG3114 patienceG3114 with me and I will repayG591 you everythingG3956.’
