3 | Take heed to yourselves; if your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him; |
4 | and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, and says, `I repent,' you must forgive him." |
5 | The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith!" |
6 | And the Lord said, "If you had faith as a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this sycamine tree, `Be rooted up, and be planted in the sea,' and it would obey you. |
7 | "Will any one of you, who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep, say to him when he has come in from the field, `Come at once and sit down at table'? |
8 | Will he not rather say to him, `Prepare supper for me, and gird yourself and serve me, till I eat and drink; and afterward you shall eat and drink'? |
9 | Does he thank the servant because he did what was commanded? |
10 | So you also, when you have done all that is commanded you, say, `We are unworthy servants; we have only done what was our duty.'" |
