Matthew 18:25-26, 34

Matthew 18:25-26 NCV

But the servant did not have enough money to pay his master, the king. So the master ordered that everything the servant owned should be sold, even the servant’s wife and children. Then the money would be used to pay the king what the servant owed. “But the servant fell on his knees and begged, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay you everything I owe.’

Matthew 18:34 NCV

The master was very angry and put the servant in prison to be punished until he could pay everything he owed.
