Matteusarguðspjall 18:23-35
Icelandic Bible
23 Því að líkt er um himnaríki og konung, sem vildi láta þjóna sína gjöra skil.
24 Hann hóf reikningsskilin, og var færður til hans maður, er skuldaði tíu þúsund talentur.
25 Sá gat ekkert borgað, og bauð konungur þá, að hann skyldi seldur ásamt konu og börnum og öllu, sem hann átti, til lúkningar skuldinni.
26 Þá féll þjónninn til fóta honum og sagði: ,Haf biðlund við mig, og ég mun borga þér allt.`
27 Og herra þjónsins kenndi í brjósti um hann, lét hann lausan og gaf honum upp skuldina.
28 Þegar þjónn þessi kom út, hitti hann einn samþjón sinn, sem skuldaði honum hundrað denara. Hann greip hann, tók fyrir kverkar honum og sagði: ,Borga það, sem þú skuldar!`
29 Samþjónn hans féll þá til fóta honum og bað hann: ,Haf biðlund við mig, og ég mun borga þér.`
30 En hann vildi ekki, heldur fór og lét varpa honum í fangelsi, uns hann hefði borgað skuldina.
31 Þegar samþjónar hans sáu, hvað orðið var, urðu þeir mjög hryggir og sögðu herra sínum allt, sem gjörst hafði.
32 Konungurinn kallar þá þjóninn fyrir sig og segir við hann: ,Illi þjónn, alla þessa skuld gaf ég þér upp, af því að þú baðst mig.
33 Bar þér þá ekki einnig að miskunna samþjóni þínum, eins og ég miskunnaði þér?`
34 Og konungur varð reiður og afhenti hann böðlunum, uns hann hefði goldið allt, sem hann skuldaði honum.
35 Þannig mun og faðir minn himneskur gjöra við yður, nema hver og einn yðar fyrirgefi af hjarta bróður sínum."

Matthew 18:23-35
New International Version
23 “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like(A) a king who wanted to settle accounts(B) with his servants. 24 As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand bags of gold[a] was brought to him. 25 Since he was not able to pay,(C) the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold(D) to repay the debt.
26 “At this the servant fell on his knees before him.(E) ‘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.[b] 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.”(F)
