Matthew 18:30

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

He refused and went and put him in prison till he should pay the debt.

See the chapter Copy

and say, ‘Thus says the king, “Put this fellow in prison, and feed him with scant fare of bread and water, until I come in peace.” ’ ”

He who closes his ear to the cry of the poor will himself cry out and not be heard.

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

When his fellow servants saw what had taken place, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their lord all that had taken place.
