18. Verily I say unto you, What things soever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and what things soever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
19. Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
20. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
21. Then came Peter, and said to him, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? until seven times?
22. Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times; but, Until seventy times seven.
23. Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would make a reckoning with his servants.
24. And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.
25. But forasmuch as he had not wherewith 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 worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.
27. And the lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.
28. But that servant went out, and found one of his fellow-servants, which owed him a hundred pence: and he laid hold on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay what thou owest.
29. So his fellow-servant fell down and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee.
30. And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay that which was due.
31. So when his fellow-servants saw what was done, they were exceeding sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.
