Matthew 18:30

God's Word

But he refused. Instead, he turned away and had that servant put into prison until he would repay what he owed.

See the chapter Copy

Say, ‘This is what the king says: Put this man in prison, and feed him nothing but bread and water until I come home safely.’ ”

Whoever shuts his ear to the cry of the poor will call and not be answered.

“Then that other servant fell at his feet and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will repay you.’

“The other servants who worked with him saw what had happened and felt very sad. They told their master the whole story.
