15 | "If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. |
16 | But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every word may be confirmed by 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, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. |
18 | Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. |
19 | Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. |
