21 Then Peter came and said to him, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?"

22 Jesus said to him, "I don’t tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven. 23 Therefore the Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. 24 When he had begun to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. 25 But because he couldn’t pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, with his wife, his children, and all that he had, and payment to be made. 26 The servant therefore fell down and knelt before him, saying, ‘Lord, have patience with me, and I will repay you all!’ 27 The lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him and forgave him the debt.

28 "But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him one hundred denarii, and he grabbed him and took him by the throat, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe!’

29 "So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will repay you!’ 30 He would not, but went and cast him into prison until he should pay back that which was due. 31 So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were exceedingly sorry, and came and told their lord all that was done. 32 Then his lord called him in and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. 33 Shouldn’t you also have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you?’ 34 His lord was angry, and delivered him to the tormentors until he should pay all that was due to him. 35 So my heavenly Father will also do to you, if you don’t each forgive your brother from your hearts for his misdeeds."

21 Tedy přistoupiv k němu Petr, řekl: Pane, kolikrát zhřeší proti mně bratr můj, a odpustím jemu? Do sedmilikrát?

22 I dí mu Ježíš: Nepravím tobě až do sedmikrát, ale až do sedmdesátikrát sedmkrát.

23 A protož podobno jest království nebeské člověku králi, kterýž chtěl počet klásti s služebníky svými.

24 A když počal počtu klásti, podán mu jeden, kterýž byl dlužen deset tisíců hřiven.

25 A když neměl čím zaplatiti, kázal jej pán jeho prodati, i ženu jeho i děti i všecko, což měl, a zaplatiti.

26 Tedy padna služebník ten, prosil ho, řka: Pane, poshověj mi, a všeckoť zaplatím tobě.

27 I slitovav se pán nad služebníkem tím, propustil ho a dluh jemu odpustil.

28 Vyšed pak služebník ten, nalezl jednoho z spoluslužebníků svých, kterýž mu byl dlužen sto peněz, a chopiv se ho, hrdloval se s ním, řka: Zaplať mi, cos dlužen.

29 Tedy padna spoluslužebník ten k nohám jeho, prosil ho, řka: Poshověj mi, a všeckoť zaplatím tobě.

30 On pak nechtěl, ale odšed, dal jej do žaláře, dokudž by nezaplatil dluhu.

31 Tedy vidouce spoluslužebníci, co se dálo, zarmoutili se velmi; a šedše, pověděli pánu svému všecko, co se bylo stalo.

32 Tehdy povolav ho pán jeho, dí mu: Služebníče zlý, všecken ten tvůj dluh odpustil jsem tobě, nebs mne prosil.

33 Zdaližs i ty neměl se smilovati nad spoluslužebníkem svým, jako i já smiloval jsem se nad tebou?

34 I rozhněvav se pán jeho, dal jej katům, dokudž by nezaplatil všeho, což mu byl dlužen.

35 Takť i Otec můj nebeský učiní vám, jestliže neodpustíte jeden každý bratru svému z srdcí vašich jejich provinění.
