King James 2000

Matthew 18:24-31 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

24. And when he had begun the reckoning, one was brought unto him, who owed him ten thousand talents.

25. But since he had nothing 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 worshiped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.

27. Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and released him, and forgave him the debt.

28. But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellow servants, who owed him a hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me what you owe.

29. And his fellow servant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.

30. And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

31. So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.
