Matthew 18:16-20
New International Version
16 But if they will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’[a](A) 17 If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church;(B) and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or a tax collector.(C)
18 “Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be[b] bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be[c] loosed in heaven.(D)
19 “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them(E) by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”(F)

King James Version
Matthew 18:16-20
King James Version
16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.
18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
