| If your brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over. | If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother. |
| If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church; and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or a tax collector. | If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the assembly. If he refuses to hear the assembly also, let him be to you as a Gentile or a tax collector. |
| For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them. | For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them. |
| Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.” | Then Peter came and said to him, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I don’t tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.” |
Bible verse of the day
For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.Random Bible Verse
But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,whose confidence is in him.
They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.Next verse!With image
