BAN ²³ C'est pourquoi le royaume des cieux est semblable à un roi qui voulut faire rendre compte à ses serviteurs.

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

BAN ²⁴ Quand il eut commencé à compter, on lui en amena un qui devait dix mille talents ;

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

BAN ²⁵ et comme il n'avait pas de quoi payer, son seigneur commanda qu'il fût vendu, lui et sa femme et ses enfants et tout ce qu'il avait, et que la dette fût payée.

KJV ²⁵ But 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.

BAN ²⁶ Et ce serviteur tombant à terre, se prosternait devant lui, disant : Aie patience envers moi, et je te paierai tout.

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

BAN ²⁷ Et le seigneur de ce serviteur, ému de compassion, le relâcha, et lui quitta la dette.

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

BAN ²⁸ Mais ce serviteur étant sorti, rencontra un de ses compagnons de service qui lui devait cent deniers ; et l'ayant saisi, il l'étranglait, en disant : Paie ce que tu dois !

KJV ²⁸ But 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.

BAN ²⁹ Et son compagnon de service, tombant à terre, le suppliait en disant : Aie patience envers moi, et je te paierai.

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

BAN ³⁰ Mais lui ne voulut point ; et s'en étant allé, il le jeta en prison, jusqu'à ce qu'il eût payé ce qu'il devait.

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

BAN ³¹ Ses compagnons de service, voyant ce qui s'était passé, en furent fort attristés, et ils vinrent instruire leur seigneur de tout ce qui était arrivé.

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

BAN ³² Alors son seigneur l'ayant appelé, lui dit : Méchant serviteur, je t'ai quitté toute cette dette, parce que tu m'as supplié,

KJV ³² Then 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:

BAN ³³ ne te fallait-il pas aussi avoir pitié de ton compagnon de service, comme moi aussi j'ai eu pitié de toi ?

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

BAN ³⁴ Et son seigneur en colère le livra aux bourreaux jusqu'à ce qu'il eût payé tout ce qu'il lui devait.

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