Matthew 18:25 in context

  1. 23Therefore the Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who wanted to reconcile accounts with his servants.
  2. 24When he had begun to reconcile, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.
  3. 25But because he couldn’t pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, with his wife, his children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.
  4. 26The servant therefore fell down and knelt before him, saying, ‘Lord, have patience with me, and I will repay you all!’
  5. 27The lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.
