His fellow servant fell down and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay you back!’
The servant fell on his knees before the king. ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay you everything!’
“Then the man went out and met one of his fellow servants who owed him a few dollars. He grabbed him and started choking him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he said.
But he refused; instead, he had him thrown into jail until he should pay the debt.
You should have had mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had mercy on you.’
Forgive us the wrongs we have done, as we forgive the wrongs that others have done to us.
You learned of God's grace from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant, who is Christ's faithful worker on our behalf.
Our dear friend Tychicus, who is a faithful worker and fellow servant in the Lord's work, will give you all the news about me.
