Matthew 18:21-35

The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant

ThenG5119 cameG4334{(G5631)} PeterG4074 to himG846, and saidG2036{(G5627)}, LordG2962, how oftG4212 shall myG3450 brotherG80 sinG264{(G5692)} againstG1519 meG1691, andG2532 I forgiveG863{(G5692)} himG846? tillG2193 seven timesG2034?

JesusG2424 saithG3004{(G5719)} unto himG846, I sayG3004{(G5719)} notG3756 unto theeG4671, UntilG2193 seven timesG2034: butG235, UntilG2193 seventy timesG1441 sevenG2033.

ThereforeG1223G5124 is the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 likenedG3666{(G5681)} unto a certainG444 kingG935, whichG3739 wouldG2309{(G5656)} takeG4868{(G5658)} accountG3056 ofG3326 hisG846 servantsG1401.

AndG1161 when heG846 had begunG756{(G5671)} to reckonG4868{(G5721)}, oneG1520 was broughtG4374{(G5681)} unto himG846, which owedG3781 himG846 ten thousandG3463 talentsG5007.

But forasmuch asG1161 heG846 hadG2192{(G5723)} notG3361 to payG591{(G5629)}, hisG846 lordG2962 commandedG2753{(G5656)} himG846 to be soldG4097{(G5683)}, andG2532 hisG846 wifeG1135, andG2532 childrenG5043, andG2532 allG3956 thatG3745 he hadG2192{(G5707)}, andG2532 payment to be madeG591{(G5683)}.

The servantG1401 thereforeG3767 fell downG4098{(G5631)}, and worshippedG4352{(G5707)} himG846, sayingG3004{(G5723)}, LordG2962, have patienceG3114{(G5657)} withG1909 meG1698, andG2532 I will payG591{(G5692)} theeG4671 allG3956.

ThenG1161 the lordG2962 of thatG1565 servantG1401 was moved with compassionG4697{(G5679)}, and loosedG630{(G5656)} himG846, andG2532 forgaveG863{(G5656)} himG846 the debtG1156.

ButG1161 the sameG1565 servantG1401 went outG1831{(G5631)}, and foundG2147{(G5627)} oneG1520 of hisG846 fellowservantsG4889, whichG3739 owedG3784{(G5707)} himG846 an hundredG1540 penceG1220: andG2532 he laid handsG2902{(G5660)} on himG846, and took him by the throatG4155{(G5707)}, sayingG3004{(G5723)}, PayG591{(G5628)} meG3427 thatG3748 thou owestG3784{(G5719)}.

AndG3767 hisG846 fellowservantG4889 fell downG4098{(G5631)} atG1519 hisG846 feetG4228, and besoughtG3870{(G5707)} himG846, sayingG3004{(G5723)}, Have patienceG3114{(G5657)} withG1909 meG1698, andG2532 I will payG591{(G5692)} theeG4671 allG3956.

AndG1161 he wouldG2309{(G5707)} notG3756: butG235 wentG565{(G5631)} and castG906{(G5627)} himG846 intoG1519 prisonG5438, tillG2193G3739 he should payG591{(G5632)} the debtG3784{(G5746)}.

SoG1161 when hisG846 fellowservantsG4889 sawG1492{(G5631)} what was doneG1096{(G5637)}, they were veryG4970 sorryG3076{(G5681)}, andG2532 cameG2064{(G5631)} and toldG1285{(G5656)} unto theirG846 lordG2962 allG3956 that was doneG1096{(G5637)}.

ThenG5119 hisG846 lordG2962, after that he had calledG4341{(G5666)} himG846, saidG3004{(G5719)} unto himG846, O thou wickedG4190 servantG1401, I forgaveG863{(G5656)} theeG4671 allG3956 thatG1565 debtG3782, becauseG1893 thou desiredstG3870{(G5656)} meG3165:

ShouldestG1163{(G5713)} notG3756 thouG4571 alsoG2532 have had compassionG1653{(G5658)} on thyG4675 fellowservantG4889, evenG2532 asG5613 IG1473 had pityG1653{(G5656)} on theeG4571?

AndG2532 hisG846 lordG2962 was wrothG3710{(G5685)}, and deliveredG3860{(G5656)} himG846 to the tormentorsG930, tillG2193G3739 he should payG591{(G5632)} allG3956 that was dueG3784{(G5746)} unto himG846.

SoG3779 likewise shall myG3450 heavenlyG2032 FatherG3962 doG4160{(G5692)} alsoG2532 unto youG5213, ifG3362 ye fromG575 yourG5216 heartsG2588 forgiveG863{(G5632)} notG3362 every oneG1538 hisG846 brotherG80 theirG846 trespassesG3900.
