Luke 17:2-4
New American Standard Bible
2 (A)It is better for him if a millstone is hung around his neck and he [a]is thrown into the sea, than that he may cause one of these little ones to [b]sin. 3 [c]Be on your guard! (B)If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. 4 And if he sins against you (C)seven times a day, and returns to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him.”
