Matthew 18:25, 26, 34 Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt. “At this the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’ In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. | New International Version (NIV)
