1. And he said to his disciples: "It is impossible for scandals not to occur. But woe to him through whom they come!
2. It would be better for him if a millstone were placed around his neck and he were thrown into the sea, than to lead astray one of these little ones.
3. Be attentive to yourselves. If your brother has sinned against you, correct him. And if he has repented, forgive him.
4. And if he has sinned against you seven times a day, and seven times a day has turned back to you, saying, 'I am sorry,' then forgive him."
5. And the Apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith."
6. But the Lord said: "If you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you may say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted, and be transplanted into the sea.' And it would obey you.
7. But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, would say to him, as he was returning from the field, 'Come in immediately; sit down to eat,'
8. and would not say to him: 'Prepare my dinner; gird yourself and minister to me, while I eat and drink; and after these things, you shall eat and drink?'
