Matthew 18:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus saying, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"
2 He called a child, had him stand among them,
3 and said, "I tell you the truth, unless you turn around and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven!
4 Whoever then humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5 And whoever welcomes a child like this in my name welcomes me.
6 "But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a huge millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the open sea.
7 Woe to the world because of stumbling blocks! It is necessary that stumbling blocks come, but woe to the person through whom they come.
8 If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire.
9 And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into fiery hell.
10 "See that you do not disdain one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven.

12 What do you think? If someone owns a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go look for the one that went astray?
13 And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he will rejoice more over it than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.
14 In the same way, your Father in heaven is not willing that one of these little ones be lost.
15 "If your brother sins, go and show him his fault when the two of you are alone. If he listens to you, you have regained your brother.
16 But if he does not listen, take one or two others with you, so that at the testimony of two or three witnesses every matter may be established.
17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. If he refuses to listen to the church, treat him like a Gentile or a tax collector.
18 "I tell you the truth, whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.
19 Again, I tell you the truth, if two of you on earth agree about whatever you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you.
20 For where two or three are assembled in my name, I am there among them."
21 Then Peter came to him and said, "Lord, how many times must I forgive my brother who sins against me? As many as seven times?"
22 Jesus said to him, "Not seven times, I tell you, but seventy-seven times!
23 "For this reason, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his slaves.
24 As he began settling his accounts, a man who owed ten thousand talents was brought to him.
25 Because he was not able to repay it, the lord ordered him to be sold, along with his wife, children, and whatever he possessed, and repayment to be made.
26 Then the slave threw himself to the ground before him, saying, 'Be patient with me, and I will repay you everything.'
27 The lord had compassion on that slave and released him, and forgave him the debt.
28 After he went out, that same slave found one of his fellow slaves who owed him one hundred silver coins. So he grabbed him by the throat and started to choke him, saying, 'Pay back what you owe me!'
29 Then his fellow slave threw himself down and begged him, 'Be patient with me, and I will repay you.'
30 But he refused. Instead, he went out and threw him in prison until he repaid the debt.
31 When his fellow slaves saw what had happened, they were very upset and went and told their lord everything that had taken place.
32 Then his lord called the first slave and said to him, 'Evil slave! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me!
33 Should you not have shown mercy to your fellow slave, just as I showed it to you?'
34 And in anger his lord turned him over to the prison guards to torture him until he repaid all he owed.
35 So also my heavenly Father will do to you, if each of you does not forgive your brother from your heart."
1 At G1722 the same G1565 time G5610 came G4334 the G3588 disciples G3101 unto Jesus, G2424 saying, G3004 Who G5101 G686 is G2076 the greatest G3187 in G1722 the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 ?
2 And G2532 Jesus G2424 called G4341 a little child G3813 unto him, and G2532 set G2476 him G846 in G1722 the midst G3319 of them, G846
3 And G2532 said, G2036 Verily G281 I say G3004 unto you, G5213 Except G3362 ye be converted, G4762 and G2532 become G1096 as G5613 little children, G3813 ye shall not G3364 enter G1525 into G1519 the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven. G3772
4 Whosoever G3748 therefore G3767 shall humble G5013 himself G1438 as G5613 this G5124 little child, G3813 the same G3778 is G2076 greatest G3187 in G1722 the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven. G3772
5 And G2532 whoso G3739 G1437 shall receive G1209 one G1520 such G5108 little child G3813 in G1909 my G3450 name G3686 receiveth G1209 me. G1691
6 But G1161 whoso G3739 G302 shall offend G4624 one G1520 of these G5130 little ones G3398 which believe G4100 in G1519 me, G1691 it were better G4851 for him G846 that G2443 a millstone G3458 G3684 were hanged G2910 about G1909 his G846 neck, G5137 and G2532 that he were drowned G2670 in G1722 the G3588 depth G3989 of the G3588 sea. G2281
7 Woe G3759 unto the G3588 world G2889 because of offenses G4625 ! for G1063 it must needs be G2076 G318 that offenses G4625 come; G2064 but G4133 woe G3759 to that G1565 man G444 by G1223 whom G3739 the G3588 offense G4625 cometh G2064 !
8 Wherefore G1161 if G1487 thy G4675 hand G5495 or G2228 thy G4675 foot G4228 offend G4624 thee, G4571 cut them off G1581 G846 , and G2532 cast G906 them from G575 thee: G4675 it is G2076 better G2570 for thee G4671 to enter G1525 into G1519 life G2222 halt G5560 or G2228 maimed, G2948 rather than G2228 having G2192 two G1417 hands G5495 or G2228 two G1417 feet G4228 to be cast G906 into G1519 everlasting G166 fire. G4442
9 And G2532 if G1487 thine G4675 eye G3788 offend G4624 thee, G4571 pluck it out G1807 G846 , and G2532 cast G906 it from G575 thee: G4675 it is G2076 better G2570 for thee G4671 to enter G1525 into G1519 life G2222 with one eye, G3442 rather G2228 than having G2192 two G1417 eyes G3788 to be cast G906 into G1519 hell G1067 fire. G4442
10 Take heed G3708 that ye despise G2706 not G3361 one G1520 of these G5130 little ones; G3398 for G1063 I say G3004 unto you, G5213 That G3754 in G1722 heaven G3772 their G846 angels G32 do always G1223 G3956 behold G991 the G3588 face G4383 of my G3450 Father G3962 which G3588 is in G1722 heaven. G3772
11 For G1063 the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 is come G2064 to save G4982 that which was lost. G622
12 How G5101 think G1380 ye G5213 ? if G1437 a G5100 man G444 have G1096 a hundred G1540 sheep, G4263 and G2532 one G1520 of G1537 them G846 be gone astray, G4105 doth he not G3780 leave G863 the G3588 ninety and nine, G1768 and goeth G4198 into G1909 the G3588 mountains, G3735 and G2532 seeketh G2212 that which is gone astray G4105 ?
13 And G2532 if G1437 so be G1096 that he find G2147 it, G846 verily G281 I say G3004 unto you, G5213 he G3754 rejoiceth G5463 more G3123 of G1909 that G846 sheep, than G2228 of G1909 the G3588 ninety and nine G1768 which went not astray G4105 G3361 .
14 Even so G3779 it is G2076 not G3756 the will G2307 of G1715 your G5216 Father G3962 which G3588 is in G1722 heaven, G3772 that G2443 one G1520 of these G5130 little ones G3398 should perish. G622
15 Moreover G1161 if G1437 thy G4675 brother G80 shall trespass G264 against G1519 thee, G4571 go G5217 and G2532 tell him his fault G1651 G846 between G3342 thee G4675 and G2532 him G846 alone: G3441 if G1437 he shall hear G191 thee, G4675 thou hast gained G2770 thy G4675 brother. G80
16 But G1161 if G1437 he will not G3361 hear G191 thee, then take G3880 with G3326 thee G4675 one G1520 or G2228 two G1417 more, G2089 that G2243 in G1909 the mouth G4720 of two G1417 or G2228 three G5140 witnesses G3144 every G3956 word G4487 may be established. G2476
17 And G1161 if G1437 he shall neglect to hear G3878 them, G846 tell G2036 it unto the G3588 church: G1577 but G1161 if G1437 he neglect to hear G3878 the G3588 church, G1577 let him be G2077 unto thee G4671 as G5618 a heathen man G1482 and G2532 a publican. G5057
18 Verily G281 I say G3004 unto you, G5213 Whatsoever G3745 G1437 ye shall bind G1210 on G1909 earth G1093 shall be G2071 bound G1210 in G1722 heaven: G3772 and G2532 whatsoever G3745 G1437 ye shall loose G3089 on G1909 earth G1093 shall be G2071 loosed G3089 in G1722 heaven. G3772
19 Again G3825 I say G3004 unto you, G5213 That G3754 if G1437 two G1417 of you G5216 shall agree G4856 on G1909 earth G1093 as touching G4012 any G3956 thing G4229 that G3739 G1437 they shall ask, G154 it shall be done G1096 for them G846 of G3844 my G3450 Father G3962 which G3588 is in G1722 heaven. G3772
20 For G1063 where G3757 two G1417 or G2228 three G5140 are G1526 gathered together G4863 in G1519 my G1699 name, G3686 there G1563 am G1510 I in G1722 the midst G3319 of them. G846
21 Then G5119 came G4334 Peter G4074 to him, G846 and said, G2036 Lord, G2962 how oft G4212 shall my G3450 brother G80 sin G264 against G1519 me, G1691 and G2532 I forgive G863 him G846 ? till G2193 seven times G2034 ?
22 Jesus G2424 saith G3004 unto him, G846 I say G3004 not G3756 unto thee, G4671 Until G2193 seven times: G2034 but, Until G2193 seventy times G1441 seven. G2033
23 Therefore G1223 G5124 is the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 likened unto G3666 a certain king G444 G935 , which G3739 would G2309 take G4868 account G3056 of G3326 his G848 servants. G1401
24 And G1161 when he G846 had begun G756 to reckon, G4868 one G1520 was brought G4374 unto him, G846 which owed G3781 him ten thousand G3463 talents. G5007
25 But G1161 forasmuch as he G846 had G2192 not G3361 to pay, G591 his G846 lord G2962 commanded G2753 him G846 to be sold, G4097 and G2532 his G846 wife, G1135 and G2532 children, G5043 and G2532 all G3956 that he G3745 had, G2192 and G2532 payment to be made. G591
26 The G3588 servant G1401 therefore G3767 fell down, G4098 and worshiped G4352 him, G846 saying, G3004 Lord, G2962 have patience G3114 with G1909 me, G1698 and G2532 I will pay G591 thee G4671 all. G3956
27 Then G1161 the G3588 lord G2962 of that G1565 servant G1401 was moved with compassion G4697 and loosed G630 him, G846 and G2532 forgave G863 him G846 the G3588 debt. G1156
28 But G1161 the G3588 same G1565 servant G1401 went out, G1831 and found G2147 one G1520 of his G846 fellow servants, G4889 which G3739 owed G3784 him G846 a hundred G1540 pence: G1220 and G2532 he laid hands G2902 on him, G846 and took him by the throat, G4155 saying, G3004 Pay G591 me G3427 that G3748 thou owest. G3784
29 And G3767 his G846 fellowservant G4889 fell down G4098 at G1519 his G846 feet, G4228 and besought G3870 him, G846 saying, G3004 Have patience G3114 with G1909 me, G1698 and G2532 I will pay G591 thee G4671 all. G3956
30 And G1161 he G3588 would G2309 not: G3756 but G235 went G565 and cast G906 him G846 into G1519 prison, G5438 till G2193 he should pay G591 the G3588 debt. G3784
31 So G1161 when his G846 fellowservants G4889 saw G1492 what was done, G1096 they were very sorry G3076 G4970 , and G2532 came G2064 and told G1285 unto their G848 lord G2962 all G3956 that was done. G1096
32 Then G5119 his G846 lord, G2962 after that he had called G4341 him, G846 said G3004 unto him, G846 O thou wicked G4190 servant, G1401 I forgave G863 thee G4671 all G3956 that G1565 debt, G3782 because G1893 thou desiredst G3870 me: G3165
33 Shouldest G1163 not G3756 thou G4571 also G2532 have had compassion G1653 on thy G4675 fellow servant, G4889 even G2532 as G5613 I G1473 had pity G1653 on thee G4571 ?
34 And G2532 his G846 lord G2962 was wroth, G3710 and delivered G3860 him G846 to the G3588 tormentors, G930 till G2193 he G3739 should pay G591 all G3956 that was due G3784 unto him. G846
35 So likewise G3779 shall my G3450 heavenly G2032 Father G3962 do G4160 also G2532 unto you, G5213 if G3362 ye from G575 your G5216 hearts G2588 forgive G863 not G3362 every one G1538 his G848 brother G80 their G846 trespasses. G3900
