13AndG2532 ifG1437 soG2532 beG1096 thatG3754 heG2532 findG2147 itG846, verily IG281 sayG3004 unto youG5210, heG2532 rejoiceth overG1909 itG846 moreG3123 thanG2228 overG1909 theG3588 ninety andG2532 nineG1767 whichG3748 have notG3361 goneG4105 astrayG4105. 14Even soG2443 itG3779 isG1510 notG3756 theG3588 willG2307 ofG2307 yourG1722 FatherG3962 whichG3588 isG1510 inG1722 heavenG3772, thatG2443 oneG1520 ofG2307 theseG3778 littleG3398 onesG3398 shouldG2443 perishG622. 15AndG2532 ifG1437 thy brotherG80 sinG264 againstG1519 thee, goG5217, shew himG846 hisG846 faultG1651 betweenG3342 thee andG2532 himG846 aloneG3441: ifG1437 heG2532 hearG191 thee, thou hast gainedG2770 thy brotherG80. 16ButG1161 ifG1437 heG1437 hearG191 thee notG3361, takeG3880 withG3326 thee oneG1520 orG2228 twoG1417 moreG2089, thatG2443 at theG3956 mouthG4750 ofG1520 twoG1417 witnessesG3144 orG2228 threeG5140 everyG3956 wordG4487 mayG2443 beG2089 established. 17AndG2532 ifG1437 heG2532 refuse toG3004 hear themG846, tellG3004 itG846 unto theG3588 churchG1577: andG2532 ifG1437 heG2532 refuse toG3004 hear theG3588 churchG1577 alsoG2532, letG1510 himG846 beG1510 unto thee asG5618 theG3588 GentileG1482 andG2532 theG3588 publican. 18Verily IG281 sayG3004 unto youG5210, WhatG3588 thingsG3745 soever ye shallG2532 bindG1210 onG1909 earthG1093 shallG2532 beG1510 boundG1210 inG1722 heavenG3772: andG2532 whatG3588 thingsG3745 soever ye shallG2532 looseG3089 onG1909 earthG1093 shallG2532 beG1510 loosedG3089 inG1722 heavenG3772. 19AgainG3825 IG1473 sayG3004 unto youG5210, thatG3754 ifG1437 twoG1417 ofG1537 youG5210 shallG1417 agreeG4856 onG1909 earthG1093 asG1722 touching anythingG3956 thatG3754 theyG846 shallG1417 askG154, itG846 shallG1417 beG1096 doneG1096 forG3754 themG846 ofG1537 myG3956 FatherG3962 whichG3739 is inG1722 heavenG3772. 20ForG1063 whereG3757 twoG1417 orG2228 threeG5140 areG1510 gatheredG4863 togetherG4863 inG1722 myG1699 nameG3686, thereG1563 amG1510 IG1722 inG1722 theG3588 midstG3319 ofG3686 themG846. 21ThenG2532 cameG4334 PeterG4074, andG2532 saidG3004 toG1519 himG846, LordG2962, howG2193 oft shallG2532 myG3004 brotherG80 sinG264 againstG1519 meG3004, andG2532 IG1473 forgiveG863 himG846? untilG2193 sevenG2034 timesG2034? 22JesusG2424 saith unto himG846, IG2193 sayG3004 notG3756 unto thee, UntilG2193 sevenG2033 timesG2034; butG235, UntilG2193 seventyG1441 timesG2034 sevenG2033. 23ThereforeG1223 is theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG932 heavenG3772 likened unto a certain kingG935, whichG3739 wouldG846 make a reckoning withG3326 hisG846 servantsG1401. 24AndG1161 whenG1161 heG846 had begunG757 toG757 reckon, oneG1520 was broughtG4374 unto himG846, whichG4374 owedG3781 himG846 tenG3463 thousandG3463 talentsG5007. 25ButG1161 forasmuch asG3745 heG2532 had notG3361 wherewith toG2532 payG591, hisG846 lordG2962 commandedG2753 himG846 toG2532 beG2532 soldG4097, andG2532 hisG846 wifeG1135, andG2532 childrenG5043, andG2532 allG3956 thatG3956 heG2532 had, andG2532 payment toG2532 beG2532 madeG591. 26TheG3956 servantG1401 thereforeG3767 fellG4098 downG4098 andG2532 worshipped himG846, sayingG3004, Lord, have patienceG3114 withG1909 meG3004, andG2532 IG1473 willG3956 payG591 thee allG3956. 27AndG2532 theG3588 lordG2962 ofG2962 thatG1565 servantG1401, being movedG4697 withG2532 compassionG4697, releasedG630 himG846, andG2532 forgaveG863 himG846 theG3588 debtG1156. 28ButG1161 thatG3739 servantG1401 wentG1831 outG1831, andG2532 foundG2147 oneG1520 ofG1520 hisG846 fellow-servants, whichG3739 owedG3784 himG846 a hundredG1540 pence: andG2532 heG2532 laidG2902 holdG2902 onG1161 himG846, andG2532 tookG2902 himG846 byG3004 theG3588 throat, sayingG3004, PayG591 whatG3739 thou owest. 29SoG3767 hisG846 fellow-servant fellG4098 downG4098 andG2532 besought himG846, sayingG3004, Have patienceG3114 withG1909 meG3004, andG2532 IG1473 willG2532 payG591 thee. 30AndG1161 heG846 wouldG846 notG3756: butG1161 wentG565 andG1161 castG906 himG846 intoG1519 prisonG5438, till heG846 shouldG3784 payG591 thatG846 whichG3588 was due. 31SoG3767 whenG2532 hisG846 fellow-servants sawG3708 whatG3588 was doneG1096, theyG846 were exceeding sorry, andG2532 cameG2064 andG2532 told unto theirG846 lordG2962 allG3956 thatG3708 was doneG1096. 32ThenG5119 hisG846 lordG2962 calledG3004 himG846 unto himG846, andG2962 saith toG3004 himG846, Thou wickedG4190 servantG1401, IG1473 forgaveG863 thee allG3956 thatG1565 debtG3782, becauseG1893 thou besoughtest meG3004: 33shouldest notG3756 thou alsoG2532 have had mercyG1653 onG1653 thy fellow-servant, evenG2532 asG5613 IG2532 had mercyG1653 onG1653 thee? 34AndG2532 hisG846 lordG2962 was wroth, andG2532 deliveredG3860 himG846 toG2193 theG3956 tormentors, till heG2532 shouldG3784 payG591 allG3956 thatG3739 was due. 35SoG2532 shallG2532 alsoG2532 myG4160 heavenlyG3770 FatherG3962 doG4160 unto youG5210, ifG1437 ye forgiveG863 notG3361 everyG1538 oneG1538 hisG846 brotherG80 fromG575 yourG1437 heartsG2588.
