New Testament

Matthew 18:15-22 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

15. "If your brother sins, go and show him his fault in private; if he listens to you, you have won your brother.

16. But if he does not listen to you, take one or two more with you, so that by the mouth of two or three witnesses every fact may be confirmed.

17. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector.

18. Truly I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven.

19. "Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven.

20. For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst."

21. Then Peter came and said to Him, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Up to seven times?"

22. Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.
