THE LIFE AND MORALS

7 And his fellow-servant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

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

9 So when his fellow-servants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

10 Then 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;

11 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellow-servant, even as I had pity on thee?

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

13 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
