Matthew 18
1 The same tyme the disciples came vnto Iesus saying: who is ye greatest in the kyngdome of heve?
in illa hora accesserunt discipuli ad Iesum dicentes quis putas maior est in regno caelorum
2 Iesus called a chylde vnto him and set him in the middes of them:
et advocans Iesus parvulum statuit eum in medio eorum
3 and sayd. Verely I say vnto you: except ye tourne and become as chyldren ye cannot enter into the kyngdom of heven.
et dixit amen dico vobis nisi conversi fueritis et efficiamini sicut parvuli non intrabitis in regnum caelorum
4 Whosoever therfore humble him sylfe as this chylde the same is the greatest in ye kyngdome of heve.
quicumque ergo humiliaverit se sicut parvulus iste hic est maior in regno caelorum
5 And who soever receaveth suche a chylde in my name receaveth me.
et qui susceperit unum parvulum talem in nomine meo me suscipit
6 But whosoever offende one of these lytelons which beleve in me: it were better for him that a milstone were hanged aboute his necke and that he were drouned in the depth of the see.
qui autem scandalizaverit unum de pusillis istis qui in me credunt expedit ei ut suspendatur mola asinaria in collo eius et demergatur in profundum maris
7 Wo be vnto the world because of offences. How be it it cannot be avoided but yt offences shalbe geven. Neverthelesse woo be to ye man by who the offence cometh.
vae mundo ab scandalis necesse est enim ut veniant scandala verumtamen vae homini per quem scandalum venit
8 Wherfore yf thy honde or thy fote offende the cut him of and cast him from the. It ys better for the to enter into lyfe halt or maymed rather then thou shuldest havinge two hondes or two fete be cast into everlasting fyre. (aiōnios g166)
si autem manus tua vel pes tuus scandalizat te abscide eum et proice abs te bonum tibi est ad vitam ingredi debilem vel clodum quam duas manus vel duos pedes habentem mitti in ignem aeternum (aiōnios g166)
9 And yf also thyne eye offende the plucke him oute and caste him from the. It is better for the to enter into lyfe with one eye then havyng two eyes to be cast into hell fyre. (Geenna g1067)
et si oculus tuus scandalizat te erue eum et proice abs te bonum tibi est unoculum in vitam intrare quam duos oculos habentem mitti in gehennam ignis (Geenna g1067)
10 Se that ye despise not one of these litelons. For I saye vnto you yt in heven their angels alwayes behold the face of my father which is in heven.
videte ne contemnatis unum ex his pusillis dico enim vobis quia angeli eorum in caelis semper vident faciem Patris mei qui in caelis est
11 Ye and the sonne of man is come to saue that which is lost.
venit enim Filius hominis salvare quod perierat
12 How thinke ye? Yf a man have an hondred shepe and one of them be gone astray dothe he not leve nynty and nyne in ye moutains and go and seke that one which is gone astray?
quid vobis videtur si fuerint alicui centum oves et erraverit una ex eis nonne relinquet nonaginta novem in montibus et vadit quaerere eam quae erravit
13 If it happen that he fynd him veryly I say vnto you: he reioyseth more of that shepe then of the nynty and nyne which went not astray.
et si contigerit ut inveniat eam amen dico vobis quia gaudebit super eam magis quam super nonaginta novem quae non erraverunt
14 Even so it is not the wyll of youre father in heven that one of these lytelons shulde perishe.
sic non est voluntas ante Patrem vestrum qui in caelis est ut pereat unus de pusillis istis
15 Moreover yf thy brother treaspace agenst the. Go and tell him his faute betwene him and the alone. Yf he heare the thou hast wone thy brother:
si autem peccaverit in te frater tuus vade et corripe eum inter te et ipsum solum si te audierit lucratus es fratrem tuum
16 But yf he heare the not then take yet with the one or two that in the mouth of two or thre witnesses all thinges maye be stablisshed.
si autem non te audierit adhibe tecum adhuc unum vel duos ut in ore duorum testium vel trium stet omne verbum
17 If he heare not them tell it vnto the congregacion. If he heare not ye congregacion take him as an hethen man and as a publican.
quod si non audierit eos dic ecclesiae si autem et ecclesiam non audierit sit tibi sicut ethnicus et publicanus
18 Verely I say vnto you what soever ye bynde on erth shalbe bounde in heven. And what soever ye lowse on erth shalbe lowsed in heven.
amen dico vobis quaecumque alligaveritis super terram erunt ligata et in caelo et quaecumque solveritis super terram erunt soluta et in caelo
19 Agayn I say vnto you that yf two of you shall agre in erth apon eny maner thynge what soever they shall desyre: it shalbe geven them of my father which is in heven.
iterum dico vobis quia si duo ex vobis consenserint super terram de omni re quacumque petierint fiet illis a Patre meo qui in caelis est
20 For where two or thre are gathered togedder in my name there am I in the myddes of them.
ubi enim sunt duo vel tres congregati in nomine meo ibi sum in medio eorum
21 Then came Peter to him and sayde: master howe ofte shall I forgeve my brother yf he synne agaynst me seven tymes?
tunc accedens Petrus ad eum dixit Domine quotiens peccabit in me frater meus et dimittam ei usque septies
22 Iesus sayd vnto him: I saye not vnto the seven tymes: but seventy tymes seven tymes.
dicit illi Iesus non dico tibi usque septies sed usque septuagies septies
23 Therfore is ye kingdome of heven lykened vnto a certayne kynge which wolde take a countis of his servauntis.
ideo adsimilatum est regnum caelorum homini regi qui voluit rationem ponere cum servis suis
24 And when he had begone to recken one was broughte vnto him whiche ought him ten thousande talentis:
et cum coepisset rationem ponere oblatus est ei unus qui debebat decem milia talenta
25 whome be cause he had nought to paye his master commaunded him to be solde and his wyfe and his chyldren and all that he had and payment to be made.
cum autem non haberet unde redderet iussit eum dominus venundari et uxorem eius et filios et omnia quae habebat et reddi
26 The servaunt fell doune and besought him sayinge: Sir geve me respyte and I wyll paye it every whit.
procidens autem servus ille orabat eum dicens patientiam habe in me et omnia reddam tibi
27 Then had the Lorde pytie on that servaunt and lowsed him and forgave him the det.
misertus autem dominus servi illius dimisit eum et debitum dimisit ei
28 And ye sayde servaut wet oute and founde one of his felowes which ought him an hundred pence and leyed hondes on him and toke him by the throote sayinge: paye me yt thou owest.
egressus autem servus ille invenit unum de conservis suis qui debebat ei centum denarios et tenens suffocabat eum dicens redde quod debes
29 And his felowe fell doune and besought him sayinge: have pacience with me and I wyll paye the all.
et procidens conservus eius rogabat eum dicens patientiam habe in me et omnia reddam tibi
30 And he wolde not but went and cast him into preson tyll he shulde paye the det.
ille autem noluit sed abiit et misit eum in carcerem donec redderet debitum
31 When his other felowes sawe what was done they were very sory and came and tolde vnto their lorde all yt had happened.
videntes autem conservi eius quae fiebant contristati sunt valde et venerunt et narraverunt domino suo omnia quae facta erant
32 Then his lorde called him and sayde vnto him. O evyll servaut I forgave the all that det because thou prayedst me: was it not mete also yt thou
tunc vocavit illum dominus suus et ait illi serve nequam omne debitum dimisi tibi quoniam rogasti me
33 shuldest have had copassion on thy felow even as I had pitie on ye?
non ergo oportuit et te misereri conservi tui sicut et ego tui misertus sum
34 And his lorde was wrooth and delyuered him to the iaylers tyll he shnld paye all that was due to him.
et iratus dominus eius tradidit eum tortoribus quoadusque redderet universum debitum
35 So lyke wyse shall my hevenly father do vnto you except ye forgeve with youre hertes eache one to his brother their treaspases.
sic et Pater meus caelestis faciet vobis si non remiseritis unusquisque fratri suo de cordibus vestris
