24And when he had begunG757 to settleG4868 them, oneG1520 who owedG3781 him 1tenG3463 thousandG3463 talentsG5007 was broughtG4317 to him.

25But since he 23did not haveG2192 the means to repayG591, his masterG2962 commandedG2753 that he 4be soldG4097, alongG2532 with his wifeG1135 and childrenG5043 and allG3956 that he hadG2192, and repaymentG591 be madeG591.

26SoG3767 the slaveG1401 fellG4098 to the ground and 5prostratedG4352 himselfG4352 beforeG4352 him, sayingG3004, ‘HaveG3114 patienceG3114 with me and I will repayG591 you everythingG3956.’
