Matthew 18

1AtG1722 the sameG1565 timeG3588G5610 cameG4334 the disciplesG3588G3101 unto JesusG3588G2424, sayingG3004, WhoG5101 isG1510 the greatestG3173 inG1722 the kingdomG3588G932 of heavenG3588G3772? 2AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 calledG4341 a little childG3813 unto himG4341, and setG2476 himG846 inG1722 the midstG3319 of themG846, 3AndG2532 saidG3004, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, ExceptG1437 ye be convertedG4762, andG2532 becomeG1096 asG5613 little childrenG3588G3813, ye shallG1525 notG3756 enterG1525 intoG1519 the kingdomG3588G932 of heavenG3588G3772. 4WhosoeverG3748 thereforeG3767 shall humbleG5013 himselfG1438 asG5613 thisG3778 little childG3588G3813, the sameG3778 isG1510 greatestG3173 inG1722 the kingdomG3588G932 of heavenG3588G3772. 5AndG2532 whosoG3739 shall receiveG1209 oneG1520 suchG5108 little childG3813 inG1909 myG1473 nameG3588G3686 receivethG1209 meG1473. 6ButG1161 whosoG3739G302 shall offendG4624 oneG1520 ofG3588G3398 theseG3778 little onesG3588G3398 which believeG3588G4100 inG1519 meG1473, it were betterG4851 for himG846 thatG2443 a millstoneG3458G3684 were hangedG2910 aboutG1909 hisG846 neckG3588G5137, andG2532 that he were drownedG2670 inG1722 the depthG3588G3989 of the seaG3588G2281.

7WoeG3759 unto the worldG3588G2889 becauseG575 of offencesG3588G4625! forG1063 itG1510 must needsG318 beG1510 thatG2064 offencesG3588G4625 comeG2064; butG4133 woeG3759 toG3588G444 thatG1565 manG3588G444 byG1223 whomG3739 the offenceG3588G4625 comethG2064! 8WhereforeG1161 ifG1487 thyG4771 handG3588G5495 orG2228 thyG4771 footG3588G4228 offendG4624 theeG4771, cutG1581 themG846 offG1581, andG2532 castG906 them fromG575 theeG4771: it isG1510 betterG2570 for theeG4771 to enterG1525 intoG1519 lifeG3588G2222 haltG5560 orG2228 maimedG2948, rather thanG2228 havingG2192 twoG1417 handsG5495 orG2228 twoG1417 feetG4228 to be castG906 intoG1519 everlastingG166 fireG3588G4442. 9AndG2532 ifG1487 thineG4771 eyeG3588G3788 offendG4624 theeG4771, pluckG1807 itG846 outG1807, andG2532 castG906 it fromG575 theeG4771: it isG1510 betterG2570 for theeG4771 to enterG1525 intoG1519 lifeG3588G2222 with one eyeG3442, rather thanG2228 havingG2192 twoG1417 eyesG3788 to be castG906 intoG1519 hellG3588G1067 fireG3588G4442. 10Take heed thatG3708 ye despiseG2706 notG3361 oneG1520 ofG3398 theseG3778 little onesG3398; forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, ThatG3754 inG1722 heavenG3772 theirG846 angelsG3588G32 doG991 alwaysG3956 beholdG991 the faceG3588G4383 ofG3588G3962 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962 which isG3588 inG1722 heavenG3772. 11ForG1063 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 is comeG2064 to saveG4982 that which was lostG622. 12HowG5101 thinkG1380 yeG4771? ifG1437 aG5100 manG444 haveG1096 an hundredG1540 sheepG4263, andG2532 oneG1520 ofG1537 themG846 be gone astrayG4105, doth heG863 notG3780 leaveG863 the ninety and nineG1768, and goethG4198 intoG1909 the mountainsG3588G3735, and seekethG2212 that which is gone astrayG4105? 13AndG2532 ifG1437 so be thatG1096 he findG2147 itG846, verilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, he rejoicethG5463 moreG3123 ofG1909 thatG846 sheep, thanG2228 ofG1909 the ninety and nineG1768 which wentG4105 notG3361 astrayG4105. 14Even soG3779 it isG1510 notG3756 the willG2307 ofG1715 yourG4771 FatherG3588G3962 which isG3588 inG1722 heavenG3772, thatG2443 oneG1520 ofG3398 theseG3778 little onesG3398 should perishG622.

15MoreoverG1161 ifG1437 thyG4771 brotherG3588G80 shall trespassG264 againstG1519 theeG4771, goG5217 andG2532 tellG1651 himG846 his faultG1651 betweenG3342 theeG4771 andG2532 himG846 aloneG3441: ifG1437 he shall hearG191 theeG4771, thou hast gainedG2770 thyG4771 brotherG3588G80. 16ButG1161 ifG1437 he willG191 notG3361 hearG191 thee, then takeG3880 withG3326 theeG4771 oneG1520 orG2228 twoG1417 moreG2089, thatG2443 inG1909 the mouthG4750 ofG3144 twoG1417 orG2228 threeG5140 witnessesG3144 everyG3956 wordG4487 may be establishedG2476. 17AndG1161 ifG1437 he shall neglect to hearG3878 themG846, tellG3004 it unto the AssemblyG3588G1577: butG1161 ifG1437 he neglect to hearG3878 the AssemblyG3588G1577, let him beG1510 unto theeG4771 asG5618 an heathen manG1482 andG2532 a publicanG3588G5057. 18VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, WhatsoeverG3745 ye shall bindG1210 onG1909 earthG3588G1093 shall be that which isG1510 boundG1210 inG1722 heavenG3588G3772: andG2532 whatsoeverG3745 ye shall looseG3089 onG1909 earthG3588G1093 shall be that which isG1510 loosedG3089 inG1722 heavenG3588G3772. 19AgainG3825 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, ThatG3754 ifG1437 twoG1417 of youG4771 shall agreeG4856 onG1909 earthG3588G1093 as touchingG4012 anyG3956 thingG4229 thatG3739 they shall askG154, it shall be doneG1096 for themG846 ofG3844 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962 which isG3588 inG1722 heavenG3772. 20ForG1063 whereG3757 twoG1417 orG2228 threeG5140 areG1510 gathered togetherG4863 inG1519 myG1699 nameG3686, thereG1563 am IG1510 inG1722 the midstG3319 of themG846.

21ThenG5119 cameG4334 PeterG3588G4074 to himG846, and saidG3004, LordG2962, how oftG4212 shallG264 myG1473 brotherG3588G80 sinG264 againstG1519 meG1473, andG2532 I forgiveG863 himG846? tillG2193 seven timesG2034? 22JesusG3588G2424 saithG3004 unto himG846, I sayG3004 notG3756 unto theeG4771, UntilG2193 seven timesG2034: butG235, UntilG2193 seventy timesG1441 sevenG2033. 23

ThereforeG3778 isG3666 the kingdomG3588G932 of heavenG3588G3772 likenedG3666 unto a certainG444 kingG935, whichG3739 wouldG2309 takeG4868 accountG3056 ofG3326 hisG846 servantsG3588G1401. 24AndG1161 whenG756 heG846 had begunG756 to reckonG4868, oneG1520 was broughtG4374 unto himG846, which owed himG3781 ten thousandG3463 talentsG5007. 25But forasmuch asG1161 heG846 hadG2192 notG3361 to payG591, hisG846 lordG3588G2962 commandedG2753 himG846 to be soldG4097, andG2532 hisG846 wifeG3588G1135, andG2532 childrenG3588G5043, andG2532 allG3956 thatG3745 he hadG2192, andG2532 payment to be madeG591. 26The servantG3588G1401 thereforeG3767 fell downG4098, and worshippedG4352 himG846, sayingG3004, LordG2962, have patienceG3114 withG1909 meG1473, andG2532 I will payG591 theeG4771 allG3956. 27ThenG1161 the lordG3588G2962 ofG3588G1401 thatG1565 servantG3588G1401 was moved with compassionG4697, and loosedG630 himG846, andG2532 forgaveG863 himG846 the debtG3588G1156. 28ButG1161 theG3588G1401 sameG1565 servantG3588G1401 went outG1831, and foundG2147 oneG1520 ofG3588G4889 hisG846 fellowservantsG3588G4889, whichG3739 owedG3784 himG846 an hundredG1540 penceG1220: andG2532 he laid handsG2902 on himG846, and tookG4155 him by the throatG4155, sayingG3004, PayG591 meG1473 thatG3739G5100 thou owestG3784. 29AndG3767 hisG846 fellowservantG3588G4889 fell downG4098 atG1519 hisG846 feetG3588G4228, and besoughtG3870 himG846, sayingG3004, Have patienceG3114 withG1909 meG1473, andG2532 I will payG591 theeG4771 allG3956. 30AndG1161 he wouldG2309 notG3756: butG235 went andG565 castG906 himG846 intoG1519 prisonG5438, tillG2193 he should payG591 the debtG3784. 31SoG1161 whenG3708 hisG846 fellowservantsG3588G4889 sawG3708 what was doneG1096, they wereG3076 veryG4970 sorryG3076, andG2532 cameG2064 and toldG1285 untoG3588G2962 theirG846 lordG3588G2962 allG3956 that was doneG1096. 32ThenG5119 hisG846 lordG3588G2962, after that he had calledG4341 himG846, saidG3004 unto himG846, O thouG1401 wickedG4190 servantG1401, I forgaveG863 theeG4771 allG3956 thatG1565 debtG3588G3782, becauseG1893 thou desiredstG3870 meG1473: 33ShouldestG1163 notG3756 thouG4771 alsoG2532 have had compassionG1653 onG3588G4889 thyG4771 fellowservantG3588G4889, evenG2532 asG5613 IG1473 had pityG1653 on theeG4771? 34AndG2532 hisG846 lordG3588G2962 was wrothG3710, and deliveredG3860 himG846 to the tormentorsG3588G930, tillG2193 he should payG591 allG3956 that was dueG3784 unto himG846. 35So likewiseG3779 shallG4160 myG1473 heavenlyG2032 FatherG3588G3962 doG4160 alsoG2532 unto youG4771, ifG1437 yeG863 fromG575 yourG4771 heartsG3588G2588 forgiveG863 notG3361 every oneG1538 hisG846 brotherG3588G80 theirG846 trespassesG3588G3900.
