← Matthew 18:31 [words of Jesus]	Matthew 18:32 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	Matthew 18:33 [words of Jesus] →
So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.	Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:	Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?
