Matthew 18

18At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?G1722G1565G5610G4334G3101G2424G3004G5101G686G2076G3187G1722G932G37722And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,G2532G2424G4341G3813G4341G2476G846G1722G3319G8463And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.G2532G2036G281G3004G5213G3362G4762G2532G1096G5613G3813G1525G3364G1525G1519G932G37724Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.G3748G3767G5013G1438G5613G5124G3813G3778G2076G3187G1722G932G37725And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.G2532G3739G1437G1209G1520G5108G3813G1909G3450G3686G1209G16916But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.G1161G3739G302G4624G1520G5130G3398G3588G4100G1519G1691G4851G846G2443G3458G3684G2910G1909G846G5137G2532G2670G1722G3989G22817Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!G3759G2889G575G4625G1063G318G2076G4625G2064G4133G3759G444G1565G1223G3739G4625G20648Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.G1161G1487G4675G5495G2228G4675G4228G4624G1581G846G1581G2532G906G575G4571G4675G2076G2570G4671G1525G1519G2222G5560G2228G2948G2228G2192G1417G5495G2228G1417G4228G906G1519G166G44429And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.G2532G1487G4675G3788G4624G4571G1807G846G1807G2532G906G575G4675G2076G2570G4671G1525G1519G2222G3442G2228G2192G1417G3788G906G1519G1067G444210Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.G3708G2706G3361G1520G5130G3398G1063G3004G5213G3754G1722G3772G846G32G1223G3956G991G4383G3450G3962G3588G1722G377211For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.G1063G5207G444G2064G4982G3588G62212How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?G5101G1380G5213G1437G5100G444G1096G1540G4263G2532G1520G1537G846G4105G863G3780G863G1768G4198G1909G3735G2212G3588G410513And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.G2532G1437G1096G2147G846G281G3004G5213G3754G5463G3123G1909G846G2228G1909G1768G3588G4105G3361G410514Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.G3779G2076G3756G2307G1715G5216G3962G3588G1722G3772G2443G1520G5130G3398G62215Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.G1161G1437G4675G80G264G1519G4571G5217G2532G1651G846G1651G3342G4675G2532G846G3441G1437G191G4675G2770G4675G8016But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.G1161G3362G191G3362G191G3880G3326G4675G1520G2228G1417G2089G2443G1909G4750G1417G2228G5140G3144G3956G4487G247617And 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.G1161G1437G3878G846G2036G1577G1161G2532G1437G3878G1577G2077G4671G5618G1482G2532G505718Verily 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.G281G3004G5213G3745G1437G1210G1909G1093G2071G1210G1722G3772G2532G3745G1437G3089G1909G1093G2071G3089G1722G377219Again 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.G3825G3004G5213G3754G1437G1417G5216G4856G1909G1093G4012G3956G4229G3739G1437G154G1096G846G3844G3450G3962G3588G1722G377220For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.G1063G3757G1417G2228G5140G1526G4863G1519G1699G3686G1563G1510G1722G3319G84621Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?G5119G4334G4074G846G2036G2962G4212G3450G80G264G1519G1691G2532G863G846G2193G203422Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.G2424G3004G846G3004G3756G4671G2193G2034G235G2193G1441G203323Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.G1223G5124G932G3772G3666G444G935G3739G2309G4868G3056G3326G846G140124And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents. / talents: a talent is 750.ounces of silver, which after five shillings the ounce is 187.li. 10.s.G1161G846G756G4868G1520G4374G846G3781G846G3463G500725But 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.G1161G846G2192G3361G591G846G2962G2753G846G4097G2532G846G1135G2532G5043G2532G3956G3745G2192G2532G59126The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. / worshipped him: or, besought himG1401G3767G4098G4352G846G3004G2962G3114G1909G1698G2532G591G4671G395627Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.G1161G2962G1565G1401G4697G630G846G2532G863G846G115628But 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. / pence: the Roman penny is the eighth part of an ounce, which after five shillings the ounce is seven pence halfpenny; about fourteen centsG1161G1565G1401G1831G2147G1520G846G4889G3739G3784G846G1540G1220G2532G2902G846G4155G3004G591G3427G3748G378429And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.G3767G846G4889G4098G1519G846G4228G3870G846G3004G3114G1909G1698G2532G591G4671G395630And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.G1161G2309G3756G235G565G906G846G1519G5438G2193G3739G591G378431So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.G1161G846G4889G1492G1096G4970G3076G2532G2064G1285G846G2962G3956G109632Then 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:G5119G846G2962G4341G846G3004G846G4190G1401G863G4671G3956G1565G3782G1893G3870G316533Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?G1163G3756G4571G2532G1653G4675G4889G2532G5613G1473G1653G457134And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.G2532G846G2962G3710G3860G846G930G2193G3739G591G3956G3784G84635So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.G3779G3450G2032G3962G4160G2532G5213G3362G575G5216G2588G863G3362G1538G846G80G846G3900
