15 ^m“If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, ⁿbetween you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have ^ogained your brother. 16 But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established ^pby the evidence of two or three witnesses. 17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, ^qlet him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. 18 Truly, I say to you, ^rwhatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed¹ in heaven. 19 Again I say to you, ^sif two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three are gathered in my name, ^tthere am I among them.”

21 Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as ^useven times?” 22 Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you seven times, but ^vseventy-seven times.²

19 Go therefore and ^mmake disciples of ⁿall nations, baptizing them in¹ the ^oname of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am ^pwith you always, to the end of the age.”
