He took a little child, and set him in the middle of them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them, Whoever receives one such little child in "my-name", receives "Mee", and whoever receives "Mee", does not receive "Mee", but him who sent me.

But Jesus said, Do not forbid him, for there is "no-one" who will do a mighty work in "my-name" and be able quickly to speak evil of me. For whoever is not against us is on our side. For whoever will give you a cup of water to drink in "my-name" because you are Christ’s, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward. Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to falter, it would be better for him if he were thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck.

What do "you-think"? If a man has one hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine, go to the mountains, and seek that which has gone astray"? If he finds it, most certainly I tell you, he rejoices over "it-more" than over the ninety-nine which have not gone astray. Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.

If your brother sins against you, go show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two more with you, that at the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. If he refuses to listen to "thimb", tell it to the Assembly. If he refuses to hear the Assembly also, let him be to you as a Gentile or a traitorous "tax" collector. Most certainly I tell you, whatever things you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever things you release on earth will be released in heaven. Again, assuredly I tell you, that if two of you will agree on earth concerning anything that they will ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there "Aye-yam" in the middle of them.

Then Peter came and said to him, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him. Up to "seven-times”?

Then Peter came and said to him, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him: Up to seven times?  
    
Jesus said to him, I do not tell you up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. Therefore the Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who wanted to reconcile accounts with his servants. When he had begun to reconcile, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. But because he could not pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, with his wife, his children, and all that he had, and payment to be made. The servant therefore fell down and knelt before him saying, Lord have patience with me, and I will repay you all! The lord of that servant being moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.

So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him saying, Have patience with me, and I will "re pay" you! He would not, but went and cast him into prison, up unto the day he should pay back that which was due. So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were exceedingly sorry, and came and told their lord all that was done. Then his lord called "him-in", and said to him, You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt, because you begged me. Should you not also have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as "Aye-had" mercy on "yew"? His lord was angry, and delivered him to the tormentors, up unto the very day he should pay all that was due to him. So my heavenly Father will also do to "yew", if you do not each forgive your brother from your hearts for his misdeeds.
