18:1At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

18:2And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,

18:3And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

18:4Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

18:5And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

18:6But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

18:7Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

18:8Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

18:9And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.

18:10Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.

18:11For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

18:12How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?

18:13And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.

18:14Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.

18:15Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

18:16But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

18:17And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

18:18Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

18:19Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

18:20For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

18:21Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

18:22Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

18:23Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.

18:24And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.

18:25But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

18:26The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

18:27Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.

18:28But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

18:29And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

18:30And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

18:31So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

18:32Then 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:

18:33Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

18:34And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.

18:35So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

28:1In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

28:2And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.

28:3His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

28:4And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.

28:5And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.

28:6He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

28:7And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.

28:8And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.

28:9And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.

28:10Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.

28:11Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.

28:12And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,

28:13Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.

28:14And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.

28:15So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.

28:16Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.

28:17And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

28:18And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

28:19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

28:20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
