b'21 Then Peter came up and said to him, "Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?"\\xa022 Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you seven times, but seventy-seven times.\\xa023 "Therefore the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his servants.\\xa024 When he began to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.\\xa025 And since he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made.\\xa026 So the servant fell on his knees, imploring him, \'Have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.\'\\xa027 And out of pity for him, the master of that servant released him and forgave him the debt.\\xa028 But when that same servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii, and seizing him, he began to choke him, saying, \'Pay what you owe.\'\\xa029 So his fellow servant fell down and pleaded with him, \'Have patience with me, and I will pay you.\'\\xa030 He refused and went and put him in prison until he should pay the debt.\\xa031 When his fellow servants saw what had taken place, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their master all that had taken place.\\xa032 Then his master summoned him and said to him, \'You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me.\\xa033 And should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?\'\\xa034 And in anger his master delivered him to the jailers, until he should pay all his debt.\\xa035 So also my heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart." (Mat 18:21-35 ESV)'
