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.

The verse 28 is found in chapter 18 of Matthew. The parable of the unforgiving servant teaches that forgiveness received from God must transform the way people treat others. The enormous contrast between the debt forgiven and the debt demanded makes the lack of mercy a spiritual contradiction.

Da ging derselbe Knecht hinaus und fand einen seiner Mitknechte, der war ihm hundert Groschen schuldig; und er griff ihn an und würgte ihn und sprach: Bezahle mir, was du mir schuldig bist!
Y saliendo aquel siervo, halló a uno de sus consiervos, que le debía cien denarios; y trabando de Él, le ahogaba, diciendo: Págame lo que debes.
Pero al salir, aquel siervo encontró a uno de sus compañeros, que le debía el equivalente a unos cien días de salario. Lo agarró y lo estrangulaba, diciendo: “¡Paga lo que debes!”.
Après qu'il fut sorti, ce serviteur rencontra un de ses compagnons qui lui devait cent deniers. Il le saisit et l'étranglait, en disant: Paie ce que tu me dois.
Ma quel servitore, uscito fuori, trovò uno de’ suoi conservi, il qual gli dovea cento denari: ed egli lo prese, e lo strangolava, dicendo: Pagami ciò che tu mi devi.
Saindo, porém, aquele servo, encontrou um dos seus conservos, que lhe devia cem dinheiros, e, lançando mão dele, sufocava-o, dizendo: Paga-me o que me deves.
