- 17:3 Be on your guard: the translation takes Lk 17:3a as the conclusion to the saying on scandal in Lk 17:1–2. It is not impossible that it should be taken as the beginning of the saying on forgiveness in Lk 17:3b–4.
Luke 17:3
New International Version
3 So watch yourselves.
“If your brother or sister[a] sins against you, rebuke them;(A) and if they repent, forgive them.(B)
