Now the governor used at the feast to release a prisoner to the people, whomsoever they desired:

But that same servant, as he was going out, met with one of his fellow-servants, who owed him but an hundred pence; and he laid hold on him and seized him by the throat, saying, Pay me what thou owest me:

and his fellow-servant fell down at his feet, and intreated him, saying, Bear with me a while, and I will pay thee all.

Now when his fellow-servants saw what was done, they were very much grieved, and came and acquainted their lord with all that had passed.

and oughtest not thou to have had compassion on thy fellow-servant, even as I had on thee?

and begin to beat his fellow-servants, and to revel with drunkards:

This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.
