The Unforgiving Servant for Kids: Bible Story & Printables

You can read it in Matthew 18:21–35.

Peter asked Jesus how oft he should forgive his brother, "till seven times?" Jesus said, "Until seventy times seven," and told of a certain king whose servant owed him ten thousand talents; the servant fell down and said, "Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all," and the lord was moved with compassion and forgave him the debt. But that same servant found a fellowservant which owed him an hundred pence, would not have patience with him, and cast him into prison. The lord called him and said, "O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt," and Jesus said, "So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses."
