Luke 17:2

¹ Jesus said to His disciples, “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks will come, but woe to the one through whom they come!

It would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea than to cause one of these little ones to stumble.

³ Watch yourselves. If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

⁴ Even if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times returns to say, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
