Then Peter came up and said to him, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?" Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you seven times, but seventy times seven. Take heed to yourselves; if your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him; 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." en Pericope.153 Jesus teaches about forgiving others 1.2 2004-11-28 National Council of Churches Revised Standard Version Sean Boisen SemanticBible.org application/rdf+xml Scripture verses taken from the Holy Bible: Revised Standard Version, copyright 1946, 1952, 1973 by the National Council of Churches of Christ.
