18 ¶ Lè sa a, disip yo pwoche bò kote Jezi, yo mande li: Ki moun ki pi grannèg nan Peyi Wa ki nan syèl la?

Jezi rele yon timoun, li mete l' nan mitan yo.

Li di: Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Si nou pa chanje, si nou pa tounen tankou yon timoun piti, nou p'ap janm ka mete pye nou nan Peyi Wa ki nan syèl la.

Se poutèt sa, moun ki va soumèt tèt li devan Bondye, ki va tounen tankou timoun sa a, se li ki va pi grannèg nan Peyi Wa ki nan syèl la.

Nenpòt moun ki resevwa yon timoun tankou timoun sa a, se mwen menm li resevwa.

Kanta moun ki fè yonn nan timoun sa yo ki kwè nan mwen tonbe nan peche, li ta pi bon pou li si yo ta mare yon gwo wòl moulen nan kou l' voye l' jete nan fon lanmè.

¶ Ala yon lapenn pou lèzòm! Pa manke bagay ki pou fè yo tonbe nan peche! Wi! se vre, bagay sa yo ap toujou la. Men, malè pou moun ki lakòz bagay sa yo rive!

Si se men ou osinon pye ou ki pou ta fè ou tonbe nan peche, koupe l' voye jete byen lwen ou. Pito ou antre nan lavi a ak yon sèl men osinon ak yon sèl pye, pase pou ou rete ak de men ou osinon ak de pye ou, epi pou yo jete ou nan dife ki p'ap janm fini an.

Si se je ou ki pou ta fè ou tonbe nan peche, rache li voye jete byen lwen ou. Pito ou antre nan lavi a ak yon sèl grenn je, pase pou ou rete ak tou de je ou epi pou yo jete ou nan dife lanfè a.

10 Atansyon: Piga nou meprize yon sèl nan ti piti sa yo. Paske m'ap di nou sa: zanj gadyen yo ki nan syèl la, se tout tan yo la devan Papa m' ki nan syèl la.

11 Paske, Moun Bondye voye nan lachè a vin delivre sa ki te pèdi.

12 Sa nou konprann nan sa? Si yon nonm gen san mouton, epi li rete konsa li pa wè yonn ladan yo, èske li p'ap kite katrevendiznèf lòt yo sou mòn lan, pou li ale chache mouton ki pèdi a?

13 Si l' rive jwenn li menm, se vre wi, sa m'ap di nou la a, l'ap pi kontan pou mouton sa a pase pou katrevendiznèf lòt yo ki pa t' pèdi.

14 Konsa tou, Papa nou ki nan syèl la pa ta renmen wè yon sèl nan ti piti sa yo rive pèdi.

15 ¶ Si frè ou fè ou yon bagay ki mal, ale jwenn li, rele l' apa. Fè l' wè sa li fè a mal. Si li koute ou, se mete wa mete frè ou ankò sou bon chemen.

16 Men, si li pa vle koute ou, pran yonn osinon de lòt moun avè ou. Konsa, tout bagay va regle sou depozisyon de osinon twa temwen.

17 Si l' refize koute yo tou, lè sa a wa di legliz la sa. Si l' refize koute legliz la, ou mèt gade l' tankou yon etranje pou ou, tankou yon pèseptè kontribisyon.

18 Se vre wi, sa m'ap di nou la a: Tou sa n'a defann moun fè sou latè, yo p'ap kapab fè l' nan syèl la non plis. Tou sa n'a pèmèt moun fè sou latè, y'a kapab fè l' nan syèl la tou.

19 Men sa m'ap di nou ankò: Si de nan nou mete yo dakò sou latè pou mande nenpòt ki bagay lè y'ap lapriyè, Papa m' ki nan syèl la va ba yo li.

20 Paske, chak fwa de ou twa moun mete tèt yo ansanm nan non mwen, m'ap la nan mitan yo.

21 ¶ Lè sa a, Pyè pwoche bò kot Jezi, li di l' konsa: Mèt, konbe fwa pou m' padonnen frè m' lè li fè m' yon bagay mal? Sèt fwa konsa?

22 Jezi reponn li: Non, Pyè. Mwen pa di ou padonnen l' sèt fwa, men padonnen l' swasanndis fwa sèt fwa.

23 Men ki jan sa ap pase nan Peyi Wa ki nan syèl la: Se tankou yon wa ki te vle fè regleman ak domestik li yo.

24 Li te fèk kòmanse fè regleman an lè yo mennen yonn ba li ki te dwe l' senkantmil (50.000) goud.

25 Men, nonm lan pa t' gen dekwa peye tout lajan sa a. Mèt la bay lòd pou yo vann li tankou esklav, li menm, madanm li, pitit li yo ansanm ak tou sa l' te genyen, pou peye dèt la.

26 Domestik la tonbe ajenou devan mèt la, li di li: Mèt, tanpri souple, pran yon ti pasyans pou mwen, m'a peye ou tout lajan an.

27 Kè mèt domestik la fè l' mal, li kite lajan an la pou li, li kite l' ale.

28 Lè domestik la soti, li kontre ak yon kanmarad ki te dwe l' san (100) goud. Li kenbe l', li pran trangle l', li di li: Peye m' sa ou dwe m' lan.

29 Kanmarad la lage kò l' atè, li di lòt la: Tanpri, pran yon ti pasyans pou mwen, m'a peye ou.

30 Men, lòt la pa tande. Li fè mete kanmarad la nan prizon, pou jouk lè li fin peye sa li dwe a.

31 Lè lòt domestik yo wè sak te rive, sa te fè yo mal anpil. Y al rakonte mèt la sak te pase.

32 Lè sa a, mèt la fè rele domestik la. Li di l' konsa: Gade jan ou mechan! Mwen kite tout lajan sa a pou ou paske ou te mande m' fè sa pou ou.

33 Ou te dwe gen pitye pou kanmarad ou a menm jan mwen te gen pitye pou ou a.

34 Mèt la fè gwo kòlè, li fè mete msye nan prizon pou yo bat li jouk lè li fin peye tou sa l' te dwe a.

35 Se konsa Papa m' ki anwo nan syèl la va aji ak nou, si nou pa padonnen frè nou yo ak tout kè nou.

The Greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven(A)

18 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”

He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children,(B) you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.(C) Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.(D) And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.(E)

Causing to Stumble

“If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.(F) Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come!(G) If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble,(H) cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire. And if your eye causes you to stumble,(I) gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.(J)

The Parable of the Wandering Sheep(K)

10 “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels(L) in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven. [11] [a]

12 “What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off? 13 And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. 14 In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.

Dealing With Sin in the Church

15 “If your brother or sister[b] sins,[c] go and point out their fault,(M) just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over. 16 But if they will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’[d](N) 17 If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church;(O) and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or a tax collector.(P)

18 “Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be[e] bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be[f] loosed in heaven.(Q)

19 “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them(R) by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”(S)

The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant

21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me?(T) Up to seven times?”(U)

22 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.[g](V)

23 “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like(W) a king who wanted to settle accounts(X) with his servants. 24 As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand bags of gold[h] was brought to him. 25 Since he was not able to pay,(Y) the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold(Z) to repay the debt.

26 “At this the servant fell on his knees before him.(AA) ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’ 27 The servant’s master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go.

28 “But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred silver coins.[i] He grabbed him and began to choke him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he demanded.

29 “His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay it back.’

30 “But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. 31 When the other servants saw what had happened, they were outraged and went and told their master everything that had happened.

32 “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 33 Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ 34 In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.

35 “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”(AB)
