21 Then Peter came to him and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? until seven times?

22 Jesus says to him, I say not to thee until seven times, but until seventy times seven.

23 For this cause the kingdom of the heavens has become like a king who would reckon with his bondmen.

24 And having begun to reckon, one debtor of ten thousand talents was brought to him.

25 But he not having anything to pay, {his} lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and his children, and everything that he had, and that payment should be made.

26 The bondman therefore falling down did him homage, saying, Lord, have patience with me and I will pay thee all.

27 And the lord of that bondman, being moved with compassion, loosed him and forgave him the loan.

28 But that bondman having gone out, found one of his fellow-bondmen who owed him a hundred denarii. And having seized him, he throttled him, saying, Pay {me} if thou owest anything.

29 His fellow-bondman therefore, having fallen down {at his feet}, besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee.

30 But he would not, but went away and cast him into prison, until he should pay what was owing.

31 But his fellow-bondmen, having seen what had taken place, were greatly grieved, and went and recounted to their lord all that had taken place.

32 Then his lord, having called him to {him}, says to him, Wicked bondman! I forgave thee all that debt because thou besoughtest me;

33 shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellow-bondman, as *I* also had compassion on thee?

34 And his lord being angry delivered him to the tormentors till he paid all that was owing to him.

35 Thus also my heavenly Father shall do to you if ye forgive not from your hearts every one his brother.

21 Then came Peter and said to him, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? until 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, who would make a reckoning with his servants. 24 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, that owed him ten thousand talents. 25 But forasmuch as he had not wherewith 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 worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 27 And the lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt. 28 But that servant went out, and found one of his fellow-servants, who owed him a hundred shillings: and he laid hold on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay what thou owest. 29 So his fellow-servant fell down and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee. 30 And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay that which was due. 31 So when his fellow-servants saw what was done, they were exceeding sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done. 32 Then his lord called him unto him, and saith to him, Thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou besoughtest me: 33 shouldest not thou also have had mercy on thy fellow-servant, even as I had mercy on thee? 34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due. 35 So shall also my heavenly Father do unto you, if ye forgive not every one his brother from your hearts.
