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

Just then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Who ranks higher than others in the Kingdom of the Heavens?"

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

So He called a young child to Him, and, bidding him stand in the midst of 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

said, "In solemn truth I tell you that unless you turn and become like little children, you will in no case be admitted into the Kingdom of the Heavens.

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

Whoever therefore shall humble himself as this young child, he it is who is superior to others in the Kingdom of the Heavens.

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 for my sake receives one young child such as this, receives 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 whoever shall occasion the fall of one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for him to have a millstone hung round 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

"Alas for the world because of causes of falling! They cannot but come, but alas for each 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 is causing you to fall into sin, cut it off and away with it. It is better for you to enter into Life crippled in hand or foot than to remain in possession of two sound hands or feet but be thrown into the fire of the Ages. (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 is causing you to fall into sin, tear it out and away with it; it is better for you to enter into Life with only one eye, than to remain in possession of two eyes but be thrown into the Gehenna of fire. (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

"Beware of ever despising one of these little ones, for I tell you that in Heaven their angels have continual access to my Father who is 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 yourselves think? Suppose a man gets a hundred sheep and one of them strays away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go and look for the one that is straying?

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 succeeds in finding it, in solemn truth I tell you that he rejoices over it more than he does over the ninety-nine that have not gone 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

Just so it is not the will of your Father in Heaven that one of these little ones should be lost.

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 acts wrongly towards you, go and point out his fault to him when only you and he are there. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother.

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 to you, go again, and ask one or two to go with you, that every word spoken may be attested by 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 hear them, appeal to the Church; and if he refuses to hear even the Church, regard him just as you regard a Gentile or a tax-gatherer.

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

I solemnly tell you that whatever you as a Church bind on earth will in Heaven be held as bound, and whatever you loose on earth will in Heaven be held to be loosed.

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

I also solemnly tell you that if two of you here on earth agree together concerning anything whatever that they shall ask, the boon will come to them from my Father who is 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 there are two or three assembled in my name, there am I in the midst of 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

At this point Peter came to Him with the question, "Master, how often shall my brother act wrongly towards me and I forgive him? seven times?"

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

"I do not say seven times," answered Jesus, "but seventy times 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

"For this reason the Kingdom of the Heavens may be compared to a king who determined to have a settlement of 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

But as soon as he began the settlement, one was brought before him who owed 10,000 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

and was unable to pay. So his master ordered that he and his wife and children and everything that he had should be sold, and payment be made.

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

The servant therefore falling down, prostrated himself at his feet and entreated him. "'Only give me time,' he said, 'and I will pay you the whole.'

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

"Whereupon his master, touched with compassion, set him free and forgave him the debt.

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 no sooner had that servant gone out, than he met with one of his fellow servants who owed him 100 shillings; and seizing him by the throat and nearly strangling him he exclaimed, "'Pay me all you owe.'

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

"His fellow servant therefore fell at his feet and entreated him, "'Only give me time,' he said, 'and I will pay you.'

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

"He would not, however, but went and threw him into prison until he should pay what was due.

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

His fellow servants, therefore, seeing what had happened, were exceedingly angry; and they came and told their master without reserve all that had happened.

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

At once his master called him and said, "'Wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt, because you entreated 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

ought not you also to have had pity on your fellow servant, just as I had pity 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*)

"So his master, greatly incensed, handed him over to the jailers until he should pay all he owed him.

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*)

"In the same way my Heavenly Father will deal with you, if you do not all of you forgive one another from your hearts."
