Matthew 17:12

17:12 And I tell you that Elijah has already come. Yet they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wanted. In ¹  the same way, the Son of Man will suffer at their hands.”

Matthew 18:28

18:28 After ²  he went out, that same slave found one of his fellow slaves who owed him one hundred silver coins. ³  So ⁴  he grabbed him by the throat and started to choke him, ⁵  saying, ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ ⁶

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

² tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

³ tn Grk “one hundred denarii.” The denarius was a silver coin worth about a day’s wage for a laborer; this would be about three month’s pay.

⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so.” A new sentence was started at this point in the translation in keeping with the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences.

⁵ tn Grk “and he grabbed him and started choking him.”

⁶ tn The word “me” is not in the Greek text, but is implied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.
