    26The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

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

    28But 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.

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

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

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

    32Then 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:

    33Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

    34And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.
