Matthew 18

1 in/on/among that the/this/who hour to come near/agree the/this/who disciple the/this/who Jesus to say which? therefore great to be in/on/among the/this/who kingdom the/this/who heaven

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

2 and to call to/summon (the/this/who Jesus *k*) child to stand it/s/he in/on/among midst it/s/he

Jesus invited a little child to stand among them.

3 and to say amen to say you if not to turn and to be as/when the/this/who child no not to enter toward the/this/who kingdom the/this/who heaven

“Truly I tell you,” He said, “unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

4 who/which therefore/then (to humble *N(k)O*) themself as/when the/this/who child this/he/she/it this/he/she/it to be the/this/who great in/on/among the/this/who kingdom the/this/who heaven

Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5 and which (if *NK(o)*) to receive one child (such as this *N(k)O*) upon/to/against the/this/who name me I/we to receive

And whoever welcomes a little child like this in My name welcomes Me.

6 which then if to cause to stumble one the/this/who small this/he/she/it the/this/who to trust (in) toward I/we be profitable it/s/he in order that/to to hang millstone huge millstone (about *N(k)(o)*) the/this/who neck it/s/he and to sink in/on/among the/this/who sea the/this/who sea

But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

7 woe! the/this/who world away from the/this/who stumbling block necessity for (to be *ko*) to come/go the/this/who stumbling block but/however woe! the/this/who a human (that *k*) through/because of which the/this/who stumbling block to come/go

Woe to the world for the causes of sin. These stumbling blocks must come, but woe to the man through whom they come!

8 if then the/this/who hand you or the/this/who foot you to cause to stumble you to prevent (it/s/he *N(K)O*) and to throw: throw away from you good you to be to enter toward the/this/who life crippled or lame or two hand or two foot to have/be to throw: throw toward the/this/who fire the/this/who eternal (aiōnios g166)

If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than to have two hands and two feet and be thrown into the eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)

9 and if the/this/who eye you to cause to stumble you to take out/select it/s/he and to throw: throw away from you good you to be one-eyed toward the/this/who life to enter or two eye to have/be to throw: throw toward the/this/who hell: Gehenna the/this/who fire (Geenna g1067)

And if your eye causes you to sin, 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. (Geenna g1067)

10 to see: see not to despise one the/this/who small this/he/she/it to say for you that/since: that the/this/who angel it/s/he in/on/among heaven through/because of all to see the/this/who face the/this/who father me the/this/who in/on/among heaven

See that you do not look down on any of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of My Father in heaven.

11 (to come/go *KO*) (for the/this/who son the/this/who a human to save the/this/who to destroy *K*)

12 which? you to think if to be one a human hundred sheep and to lead astray one out from it/s/he not! (to release: leave *N(k)O*) the/this/who ninety nine upon/to/against the/this/who mountain (and *no*) to travel to seek the/this/who to lead astray

What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost?

13 and if to be to find/meet it/s/he amen to say you that/since: that to rejoice upon/to/against it/s/he more or upon/to/against the/this/who ninety nine the/this/who not to lead astray

And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he rejoices more over that one sheep than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.

14 thus(-ly) no to be will/desire before the/this/who father (you *NK(O)*) the/this/who in/on/among heaven in order that/to to destroy (one *N(k)O*) the/this/who small this/he/she/it

In the same way, your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.

15 if then to sin toward you the/this/who brother you to go (and *k*) to rebuke it/s/he between/meanwhile you and it/s/he alone if you to hear to gain the/this/who brother you

If your brother sins against you, go and confront him privately. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over.

16 if then not to hear to take with/after you still one or two in order that/to upon/to/against mouth two witness or Three to stand all declaration

But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’

17 if then to ignore it/s/he to say the/this/who assembly if then and the/this/who assembly to ignore to be you just as the/this/who Gentile-like and the/this/who tax collector

If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, regard him as you would a pagan or a tax collector.

18 amen to say you just as/how much (if *NK(o)*) to bind upon/to/against the/this/who earth: planet to be to bind in/on/among (the/this/who *ko*) heaven and just as/how much if to loose upon/to/against the/this/who earth: planet to be to loose in/on/among (the/this/who *ko*) heaven

Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

19 again (amen *NO*) to say you that/since: that if two to agree with (out from *no*) you upon/to/against the/this/who earth: planet about all thing which if to ask to be it/s/he from/with/beside the/this/who father me the/this/who in/on/among heaven

Again, I tell you truly that if two of you on the earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by My Father in heaven.

20 whither for to be two or Three to assemble toward the/this/who I/we name there to be in/on/among midst it/s/he

For where two or three gather together in My name, there am I with them.”

21 then to come near/agree the/this/who Peter to say it/s/he lord: God how often! to sin toward I/we the/this/who brother me and to release: forgive it/s/he until seven times

Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother who sins against me? Up to seven times?”

22 to say it/s/he the/this/who Jesus no to say you until seven times but until seventy times seven

Jesus answered, “I tell you, not just seven times, but seventy-seven times!

23 through/because of this/he/she/it to liken the/this/who kingdom the/this/who heaven a human king which to will/desire to settle accounts word with/after the/this/who slave it/s/he

Because of this, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.

24 be first then it/s/he to settle accounts (to bring to *NK(o)*) it/s/he one debtor myriad talent

As he began the settlements, a debtor was brought to him owing ten thousand talents.

25 not to have/be then it/s/he to pay to order it/s/he the/this/who lord: master (it/s/he *k*) to sell and the/this/who woman: wife (it/s/he *ko*) and the/this/who child and all just as/how much (to have/be *N(k)O*) and to pay

Since the man was unable to pay, the master ordered that he be sold to pay his debt, along with his wife and children and everything he owned.

26 to collapse therefore/then the/this/who slave to worship it/s/he to say (lord: master *ko*) to have patience upon/to/against (I/we *NK(o)*) and all to pay you

Then the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Have patience with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’

27 to pity then the/this/who lord: master the/this/who slave that to release: release it/s/he and the/this/who debt to release: forgive it/s/he

His master had compassion on him, forgave his debt, and released him.

28 to go out then the/this/who slave that to find/meet one the/this/who fellow slave it/s/he which to owe it/s/he hundred denarius and to grasp/seize it/s/he to choke to say to pay (me *k*) (if *N(k)O*) one to owe

But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. He grabbed him and began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay back what you owe me!’

29 to collapse therefore/then the/this/who fellow slave it/s/he (toward the/this/who foot it/s/he *K*) to plead/comfort it/s/he to say to have patience upon/to/against (I/we *NK(o)*) and (all *K*) to pay you

So his fellow servant fell down and begged him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you back.’

30 the/this/who then no to will/desire but to go away to throw: put it/s/he toward prison/watch: prison until (which *ko*) to pay the/this/who to owe

But he refused. Instead, he went and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay his debt.

31 to perceive: see (therefore/then *N(k)O*) the/this/who fellow slave it/s/he the/this/who to be to grieve very and to come/go to explain the/this/who lord: master (themself *N(k)O*) all the/this/who to be

When his fellow servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and they went and recounted all of this to their master.

32 then to call to/summon it/s/he the/this/who lord: master it/s/he to say it/s/he slave evil/bad all the/this/who debt that to release: forgive you since to plead/comfort me

Then the master summoned him and declared, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave all your debt because you begged me.

33 no be necessary and you to have mercy the/this/who fellow slave you as/when I/we and you to have mercy

Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had on you?’

34 and to anger the/this/who lord: master it/s/he to deliver it/s/he the/this/who torturer until which to pay all the/this/who to owe (it/s/he *ko*)

In anger his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should repay all that he owed.

35 thus(-ly) and the/this/who father me the/this/who (heavenly *N(k)O*) to do/make: do you if not to release: forgive each the/this/who brother it/s/he away from the/this/who heart you (the/this/who trespass it/s/he *K*)

That is how My heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart.”
