Luke 17:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
17 1 Offenses. 3 We must forgive him that trespasseth against us. 10 We are unprofitable servants. 11 Of the ten lepers. 20 Of the coming of the kingdom of heaven. 33 False Christs. 36 After what manner Christ’s coming shall be.
1 Then said he to his disciples, (A)[a]It cannot be avoided, but that offences will come, but woe be to him by whom they come.
2 It is better for him that a great millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were cast into the sea, then that he should offend one of these little ones.
3 ¶ [b]Take heed to yourselves: if thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him: and if he repent, forgive him.

“If your brother or sister[a] sins against you, rebuke them;(E) and if they repent, forgive them.(F)
