Luke 17:2-4

2 (A)It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.[a] 3 Pay attention to yourselves! (B)If your brother sins, (C)rebuke him, and if he repents, (D)forgive him, 4 and if he sins against you (E)seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”
