Thereupon his fellow-servant threw himself on the ground and begged for mercy. 'Have patience with me,' he said, 'and I will pay you.'
Thereupon the servant threw himself down on the ground before him and said 'Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.'
But, on going out, that same servant came upon one of his fellow-servants who owed him ten pounds. Seizing him by the throat, he said 'Pay what you owe me.'
But the other would not, but went and put him in prison till he should pay his debt.
Ought not you, also, to have shown mercy to your fellow- servant, just as I showed mercy to you?'
And forgive us our wrong-doings, as we have forgiven those who have wronged us;
It is just what you learned from Epaphras, our dear fellow- servant, who, as a minister of the Christ, faithfully represents us,
Our dear Brother, Tychicus, will tell you all about me. He is a faithful minister, and a fellow-servant in the Master's cause.
