Matthew 18:15-22

15“Now if your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault while you’re with him alone. If he listens to you, you have won your brother.

16But if he does not listen, take with you one or two more, so that ‘by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may stand.’

17But if he refuses to listen to them, tell it to Messiah’s community. And if he refuses to listen even to Messiah’s community, let him be to you as a pagan and a tax collector.

18“Amen, I tell you, whatever you forbid on earth will have been forbidden in heaven and what you permit on earth will have been permitted in heaven.

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

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

21Then Peter came to Him and said, “Master, how often shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?”

22Yeshua said to him, “No, not up to seven times, I tell you, but seventy times seven!
