21 Then Peter approaching asked him, “Lord, if my brother sins against me, how often must I forgive him? As many as seven times?”
22 Jesus answered, “I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times.
23 That is why the kingdom of heaven may be likened to a king who decided to settle accounts with his servants.
24 When he began the accounting, a debtor was brought before him who owed him a huge amount.
25 Since he had no way of paying it back, his master ordered him to be sold, along with his wife, his children, and all his property, in payment of the debt.
26 At that, the servant fell down, did him homage, and said, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay you back in full.’
27 Moved with compassion the master of that servant let him go and forgave him the loan.
28 When that servant had left, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a much smaller amount. he seized him and started to choke him, demanding, ‘Pay back what you owe.’
29 Falling to his knees, his fellow servant begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay you back.’
30 But he refused. Instead, he had him put in prison until he paid back the debt.
31 Now when his fellow servants saw what had happened, they were deeply disturbed, and went to their master and reported the whole affair.
32 His master summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you your entire debt because you begged me to.
33 Should you not have had pity on your fellow servant, as I had pity on you?’
34 Then in anger his master handed him over to the torturers until he should pay back the whole debt.
35 So will my heavenly Father do to you, unless each of you forgives his brother from his heart.” (Matthew 18, 21-35 -(Matthew 18:21-35)4).

Sa kanan Waraynon:
***Iginsumat an pananglitan han suruguon nga waray magpasaylo***
21 Dinmaop hi Pedro kan Jesus ngan nagpakiana, “Ginoo, kon an akon bugto an magpakinasala ha akon makapipira ko ba hiya pasasayloa? Makapito ba?
22 Binmaton hi Jesus. “ Diri la makapito kundi makakaputoan kag pito.
23 Kay an Ginhadian han Langit sugad hin Hadi nga nakigtuhay han utang han Iya mga suruguon.
24 Nagtikang pa la Hiya pagtuhay nga dad-on ha Iya in usa nga makalilisang nga kadako han iya utang.
25 Tungod nga waray man hiya igo nga igbarayad han iya utang, nagsugo an Iya agaron nga igbaligya hiya sugad nga usa nga uripon, upod an iya asawa ngan kabataan ngan ngatanan nga iya hiagi basi, makabayad han utang.
26 Linmuhod an suruguon ha atubangan han iya agaron ngan nakimaluoy hin pagsiring. “Agaron, angan-angana gad ako nga babayarak ko ikaw han ngatanan!”
27 Naluoy ha iya an agaron, sanglit ginpara la an iya utang ngan ginpalakat hiya.
28 “Ginmawas an tawo ngan iginkita hin iya igkasi surugoon nga nakautang hin pira ka pesos ha iya. Ginrabot hiya, ginkaptan ha liog ngan ginsiring, “Baydi ako han imo nautang!
29 Linmuhod ha iya an igkasi - surugoon ngan nakimaluoy in tawon, “Angan-angana gad ako ngan babayaran ko ikaw!
30 Kundi waray hiya pabaribad. Iginpapriso lugod niya ngada nga makabayad han utang.
31 Han pakakita han iba nga mga surugoon han nahinabo, duro an ira kabido. Kinmadto ha ira agaron hin pagsumat han ngatanan nga nahinabo.
32 Sanglit, iginpatawag han agaron an surugoon ngan ginsiring hiya, ‘waray ka pulos nga uripon! Ginoasaylo ko ikaw han bug-os mo nga utang kay nakimaluoy ka ha akon.
33 Unta imo kinakaluoyan mo an imo igkasi - surugoon sugad nga kalooy ko ha imo’
34 Duro gud kapungot an agaron ngan iginpapriso an surugoon basi sirutan ngada han pakabayad han ngatanan niya nga mga utang.
35 Ngan gintapos ni Jesus an pananglitan hin pagsiring, “Amo man ini an bubuhaton han Akon Amay ha Langit ha tagsa ha iyo kon diri kamo magpasaylo han iyo bugto tikang ha kasing-kasing (Mateo 18, 21-35).
