Matthew 18
1 In that hour came, the disciples unto Jesus, saying—Who then is, greatest, in the kingdom of the heavens?
in illa hora accesserunt discipuli ad Iesum dicentes quis putas maior est in regno caelorum
2 And, calling near a child, he set it in the midst of them,
et advocans Iesus parvulum statuit eum in medio eorum
3 and said—Verily, I say unto you, Except ye turn and become as the children, in nowise, shall ye enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
et dixit amen dico vobis nisi conversi fueritis et efficiamini sicut parvuli non intrabitis in regnum caelorum
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this child, the same, is the greatest, in the kingdom of the heavens;
quicumque ergo humiliaverit se sicut parvulus iste hic est maior in regno caelorum
5 And, whosoever shall give welcome unto one such child as this, upon my name, unto me, giveth welcome.
et qui susceperit unum parvulum talem in nomine meo me suscipit
6 And, whosoever shall cause to stumble one of these little ones who believe in me, it profiteth him, that there be hung a large mill-stone about his neck, and he be sunk in the wide main of the sea.
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 Alas for the world! by reason of the causes of stumbling; for it is, necessary, that the causes of stumbling come, —nevertheless, alas for the man through whom the cause of stumbling cometh!
vae mundo ab scandalis necesse est enim ut veniant scandala verumtamen vae homini per quem scandalum venit
8 But, if, thy hand or thy foot, be causing thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: It is, seemly for thee, to enter into life, maimed or lame, rather than, having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the age-abiding fire. (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, if, thine eye, causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: It is, seemly, for thee, one-eyed, into life, to enter, rather than, having two eyes, to be cast into the fiery gehenna. (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 Beware! do not despise one of these little ones; For I say unto you—that, their messengers in the heavens, do, continually, behold the face of my Father in the heavens.
videte ne contemnatis unum ex his pusillis dico enim vobis quia angeli eorum in caelis semper vident faciem Patris mei qui in caelis est
venit enim Filius hominis salvare quod perierat
12 How, to you, doth it seem? If a certain man come to have a hundred sheep and one from among them go astray, Will he not leave the ninety-nine upon the mountains, and going, seek the straying one?
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 And, if it should be that he find it, Verily, I say unto you—He rejoiceth over it, more than over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray.
et si contigerit ut inveniat eam amen dico vobis quia gaudebit super eam magis quam super nonaginta novem quae non erraverunt
14 Thus, there is no desire, in the presence of my Father who is in the heavens, that, one of these little ones, should be lost.
sic non est voluntas ante Patrem vestrum qui in caelis est ut pereat unus de pusillis istis
15 But, if thy brother sin, withdraw, convince him, betwixt thee and him, alone, —If unto thee he hearken, thou hast gained 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, if he do not hearken, take with thee, yet one or two, that, at the mouth of two witnesses or three, every declaration, maybe established;
si autem non te audierit adhibe tecum adhuc unum vel duos ut in ore duorum testium vel trium stet omne verbum
17 But, if he hear them amiss, tell it to the assembly, —And, if, even the assembly, he hear amiss, Let him be unto thee, just as the man of the nations and the tax-collector.
quod si non audierit eos dic ecclesiae si autem et ecclesiam non audierit sit tibi sicut ethnicus et publicanus
18 Verily, I say unto you—Whatsoever things ye shall bind on the earth, shall be bound in heaven; and, whatsoever things ye shall loose on the earth, shall be loosed in heaven.
amen dico vobis quaecumque alligaveritis super terram erunt ligata et in caelo et quaecumque solveritis super terram erunt soluta et in caelo
19 Again, [verily] I say unto you—If two from among you shall agree upon the earth concerning any matter, whatsoever they shall ask, it shall be brought to pass for them, from my Father who is in the heavens;
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 there are two or three, gathered together into my name, there, am I, in their midst.
ubi enim sunt duo vel tres congregati in nomine meo ibi sum in medio eorum
21 Then, coming near, Peter said [to him]—Lord! how many times, shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until, seven, times?
tunc accedens Petrus ad eum dixit Domine quotiens peccabit in me frater meus et dimittam ei usque septies
22 Jesus saith to him—I say not unto thee, unto, seven, times, but, until seventy times seven.
dicit illi Iesus non dico tibi usque septies sed usque septuagies septies
23 For this cause, hath the kingdom of the heavens become like unto a man, a king, who wished to settle an account with his servants;
ideo adsimilatum est regnum caelorum homini regi qui voluit rationem ponere cum servis suis
24 And, when he, began, to settle, there was brought unto him a, certain, debtor, of a thousand talents;
et cum coepisset rationem ponere oblatus est ei unus qui debebat decem milia talenta
25 and, he, not having, wherewith to pay, the master ordered him to be sold, and the wife, and the children, and whatsoever 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 servant therefore, falling down, began to do homage unto him, saying—Have patience with me, and, all, will I pay thee.
procidens autem servus ille orabat eum dicens patientiam habe in me et omnia reddam tibi
27 And, moved with compassion, the master of that servant released him, and, the loan, he, forgave, him.
misertus autem dominus servi illius dimisit eum et debitum dimisit ei
28 But that servant, going out, found one of his fellow-servants, who owed him, a hundred denaries, and, laying hold of him, he began seizing him by the throat, saying, Pay! if anything 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 His fellow servant, therefore, falling down, began beseeching him, saying, Have patience with me! And I will pay thee.
et procidens conservus eius rogabat eum dicens patientiam habe in me et omnia reddam tibi
30 He, however, would not, but went away and cast him into prison, —until he should pay what was owing.
ille autem noluit sed abiit et misit eum in carcerem donec redderet debitum
31 His fellow-servants, therefore, seeing, the things that were done, were grieved exceedingly, —and went and made quite plain to their master all the things which had been done.
videntes autem conservi eius quae fiebant contristati sunt valde et venerunt et narraverunt domino suo omnia quae facta erant
32 Then, calling him near, his master saith unto him—O wicked servant! All that debt, forgave I thee, because thou didst beseech me.
tunc vocavit illum dominus suus et ait illi serve nequam omne debitum dimisi tibi quoniam rogasti me
33 Was it not binding, upon thee also, to have mercy upon thy fellow-servant, as, I also, on thee, had mercy?
non ergo oportuit et te misereri conservi tui sicut et ego tui misertus sum
34 And, provoked to anger, his master delivered him up to the torturers, until he should pay all that was owing.
et iratus dominus eius tradidit eum tortoribus quoadusque redderet universum debitum
35 Thus, my heavenly Father also, will do unto you, if ye forgive not each one his brother, from your hearts.
sic et Pater meus caelestis faciet vobis si non remiseritis unusquisque fratri suo de cordibus vestris
