018:018 Most certainly I tell you, whatever things you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever things you release on earth will have been released in heaven. 018:019 Again, assuredly I tell you, that if two of you will agree on earth concerning anything that they will ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven. 018:020 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them." 018:021 Then Peter came and said to him, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?" 018:022 Jesus said to him, "I don't tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven. 018:023 Therefore the Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who wanted to reconcile accounts with his servants. 018:024 When he had begun to reconcile, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.{Ten thousand talents represents an extremely large sum of money, equivalent to about 60,000,000 denarii, where one denarius was typical of one day's wages for agricultural labor.} 018:025 But because he couldn't pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, with his wife, his children, and all that he had, and payment to be made. 018:026 The servant therefore fell down and kneeled before him, saying, 'Lord, have patience with me, and I will repay you all!' 018:027 The lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt. 018:028 "But that servant went out, and found one of his fellow servants, who owed him one hundred denarii,{100 denarii was about one sixtieth of a talent.} and he grabbed him, and took him by the throat, saying, 'Pay me what you owe!' 018:029 "So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, 'Have patience with me, and I will repay you!' 018:030 He would not, but went and cast him into prison, until he should pay back that which was due. 018:031 So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were exceedingly sorry, and came and told to their lord all that was done. 018:032 Then his lord called him in, and said to him, 'You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt, because you begged me. 018:033 Shouldn't you also have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you?' 018:034 His lord was angry, and delivered him to the tormentors, until he should pay all that was due to him. 018:035 So my heavenly Father will also do to you, if you don't each forgive your brother from your hearts for his misdeeds." 019:001 It happened when Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee, and came into the borders of Judea beyond the Jordan. 019:002 Great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there.
