22. Yeshua said to him, “No, not up to seven times, I tell you, but seventy times seven!
23. Therefore, the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wanted to settle accounts with his slaves.
24. When he had begun to settle up, a man was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.
25. But since he didn’t have the money to repay, his master ordered him to be sold, along with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made.
26. Then the slave fell on his knees and begged him, saying, ‘Be patient with me, and I’ll repay you everything.’
27. And the master of that slave, filled with compassion, released him and forgave him the debt.
28. “Now that slave went out and found one of his fellow slaves who owed him a hundred denarii. And he grabbed him and started choking him, saying, ‘Pay back what you owe!’
29. “So his fellow slave fell down and kept begging him, saying, ‘Be patient with me, and I’ll pay you back.’
30. Yet he was unwilling. Instead, he went off and threw the man into prison until he paid back all he owed.
