18. Amen I say to you, whatsoever you shall bind upon earth, shall be bound also in heaven; and whatsoever you shall loose upon earth, shall be loosed also in heaven.
19. Again I say to you, that if two of you shall consent upon earth, concerning any thing whatsoever they shall ask, it shall be done to them by my Father who is in heaven.
20. For where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
21. Then came Peter unto him and said: Lord, how often shall my brother offend against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
22. Jesus saith to him: I say not to thee, till seven times; but till seventy times seven times.
23. Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened to a king, who would take an account of his servants.
24. And when he had begun to take the account, one was brought to him, that owed him ten thousand talents.
