| Matthew 18:1 | In that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who is greatest in the kingdom of heaven? | At that hour came the disciples near to Jesus, saying, `Who, now, is greater in the reign of the heavens?` | Just then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Who ranks higher than others in the Kingdom of the Heavens?" |
| Matthew 18:2 | And he took a little child, and put him in the middle of them, | And Jesus having called near a child, did set him in the midst of them, | So He called a young child to Him, and, bidding him stand in the midst of them, |

| Matthew 18:6 | But whoever is a cause of trouble to one of these little ones who have faith in me, it would be better for him to have a great stone fixed to his neck, and to come to his end in the deep sea. | and whoever may cause to stumble one of those little ones who are believing in me, it is better for him that a weighty millstone may be hanged upon his neck, and he may be sunk in the depth of the sea. | But whoever shall occasion the fall of one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for him to have a millstone hung round his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. |
| Matthew 18:7 | A curse is on the earth because of trouble! for it is necessary for trouble to come; but unhappy is that man through whom the trouble comes. | `Wo to the world from the stumbling-blocks! for there is a necessity for the stumbling-blocks to come, but wo to that man through whom the stumbling-block doth come! | "Alas for the world because of causes of falling! They cannot but come, but alas for each man through whom they come! |
| Matthew 18:8 | And if your hand or your foot is a cause of trouble, let it be cut off and put it away from you: it is better for you to go into life with the loss of a hand or a foot than, having two hands or two feet, to go into the eternal fire. | `And if thy hand or thy foot doth cause thee to stumble, cut them off and cast from thee; it is good for thee to enter into the life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast to the fire the age-during. | If your hand or your foot is causing you to fall into sin, cut it off and away with it. It is better for you to enter into Life crippled in hand or foot than to remain in possession of two sound hands or feet but be thrown into the fire of the Ages. |
| Matthew 18:9 | And if your eye is a cause of trouble to you, take it out, and put it away from you: it is better for you to go into life with one eye than, having two eyes, to go into the hell of fire. | `And if thine eye doth cause thee to stumble, pluck it out and cast from thee; it is good for thee one-eyed to enter into the life, rather than having two eyes to be cast to the gehenna of the fire. | And if your eye is causing you to fall into sin, tear it out and away with it; it is better for you to enter into Life with only one eye, than to remain in possession of two eyes but be thrown into the Gehenna of fire. |
| Matthew 18:10 | Let it not seem to you that one of these little ones is of no value; for I say to you that in heaven their angels see at all times the face of my Father in heaven. | `Beware! ye may not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you, that their messengers in the heavens do always behold the face of my Father who is in the heavens, | "Beware of ever despising one of these little ones, for I tell you that in Heaven their angels have continual access to my Father who is in Heaven. |
| Matthew 18:11 | [] | for the Son of Man did come to save the lost. | [] |
| Matthew 18:12 | What would you say now? if a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone wandering away, will he not let the ninety-nine be, and go to the mountains in search of the wandering one? | `What think ye? if a man may have an hundred sheep, and there may go astray one of them, doth he not having left the ninety-nine, having gone on the mountains seek that which is gone astray? | What do you yourselves think?

| Matthew 18:13 | And if he comes across it, truly I say to you, he has more joy over it than over the ninety-nine which have not gone out of the way. | and if it may come to pass that he doth find it, verily I say to you, that he doth rejoice over it more than over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray; | And if he succeeds in finding it, in solemn truth I tell you that he rejoices over it more than he does over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray. |
| Matthew 18:14 | Even so it is not the pleasure of your Father in heaven for one of these little ones to come to destruction. | so it is not will in presence of your Father who is in the heavens, that one of these little ones may perish. | Just so it is not the will of your Father in Heaven that one of these little ones should be lost. |

| Matthew 18:23 | For this reason the kingdom of heaven is like a king, who went over his accounts with his servants. | `Because of this was the reign of the heavens likened to a man, a king, who did will to take reckoning with his servants, | "For this reason the Kingdom of the Heavens may be compared to a king who determined to have a settlement of accounts with his servants. |
| Matthew 18:24 | And at the start, one came to him who was in his debt for ten thousand talents. | and he having begun to take account, there was brought near to him one debtor of a myriad of talents, | But as soon as he began the settlement, one was brought before him who owed 10,000 talents, |

So his master ordered that he and his wife and children and everything that he had should be sold, and payment be made. |
| Matthew 18:26 | So the servant went down on his face and gave him worship, saying, Lord, give me time to make payment and I will give you all. | The servant then, having fallen down, was bowing to him, saying, Sir, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all; | The servant therefore falling down, prostrated himself at his feet and entreated him.

| Matthew 18:27 | And the lord of that servant, being moved with pity, let him go, and made him free of the debt. | and the lord of that servant having been moved with compassion did release him, and the debt he forgave him. | "Whereupon his master, touched with compassion, set him free and forgave him the debt. |

| Matthew 18:29 | So that servant went down on his face, requesting him and saying, Give me time and I will make payment to you. | His fellow-servant then, having fallen down at his feet, was calling on him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all; | "His fellow servant therefore fell at his feet and entreated him, "`Only give me time,' he said, `and I will pay you.' |
