Bible. Matthew
40:018:017 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church:
but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as
an heathen man and a publican.
40:018:018 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall
be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth
shall be loosed in heaven.
40:018:019 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth
as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done
for them of my Father which is in heaven.
40:018:020 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there
am I in the midst of them.
40:018:021 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my
brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
40:018:022 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times:
but, Until seventy times seven.
40:018:023 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain
king, which would take account of his servants.
40:018:024 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him,
which owed him ten thousand talents.
40:018:025 But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to
be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and
payment to be made.
40:018:026 The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying,
Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.
40:018:027 Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and
loosed him, and forgave him the debt.
40:018:028 But the same servant went out, and found one of his
fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid
hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that
thou owest.
40:018:029 And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him,
saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.
40:018:030 And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he
should pay the debt.
40:018:031 So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very
sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.
40:018:032 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O
thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because
thou desiredst me:
40:018:033 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy
fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?
40:018:034 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors,
till he should pay all that was due unto him.
40:018:035 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye
from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their
trespasses.
