Jesus Warns of Offenses
1 Then He said to the disciples, a“It is impossible that no offenses should come, but bwoe to him through whom they do come!
2 It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should1 offend one of these little ones.
3 Take heed to yourselves. aIf your brother sins against you, brebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.
4 And if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day returns1 to you, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him.”
