兄弟有過、宜伺其獨處而勸之。彼若聽爾、是全爾兄弟也。

倘兄弟得罪於爾、則於彼獨處時謫之、若聽、則得爾兄弟、

倘兄弟得罪爾、則於彼獨處時謫之、若聽、則救厥兄弟、

倘兄弟得罪爾、則於彼獨處時責之、若聽、則得爾兄弟、

“ If your brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over.

“ If your brother or sister sins against you, go to them. Tell them what they did wrong. Keep it between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them back.

“ 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.

“ If another believer sins against you, go privately and point out the offense. If the other person listens and confesses it, you have won that person back.

“ If your brother sins against you, go tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have won your brother.

“ Now if your brother sins, go and show him his fault in private; if he listens to you, you have gained your brother.

“ Moreover if your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have gained your brother.

And if thy brother sin against thee, go, show him his fault between thee and him alone: if he hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

“ If your brother sins against you, go and rebuke him in private. If he listens to you, you have won your brother.

Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

“ If your brother sins, go and show him his fault when the two of you are alone. If he listens to you, you have regained your brother.

“ 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.

即有釁隙、亦宜相恕；爾之恕人、當如主之恕爾也。

惟勿以仇敵視之、當勸之若兄弟焉。

爾其小心翼翼、善自檢點。兄弟有罪、爾當諫之；悔則恕之。倘彼於一日之內、七次獲罪於爾、而七次向爾鳴悔、亦當恕之。』

兄弟、人如有誤犯過失者、爾中之有靈修者當以溫和之精神、勸其改過遷善；亦須慎自檢點、庶免本身亦陷於罪。

兄弟中如有誤入歧途、而爾能循循規勸、使其回頭、則功莫大焉。當知使一罪人去邪歸正、便是救拔一條靈魂出於死地；爾亦可將功贖罪矣。

倘爾不本真心、各恕兄弟、則在天我父亦將以是待爾焉。』

慎勿為惡所勝、惟宜以善勝惡也。

寧受賢人責。苦口是良藥。莫受惡人諛。蜜中含辛螫。任憑彼作惡。吾禱終不輟。

而必欲對簿於外教人之前乎？又有進者、兄弟間有爭訟之事、已屬不是；孰若甘心抱屈、犯而不校之為善乎？而爾等竟侮人欺人且侵及兄弟、

為婦者應順服其夫、夫即不信聖道、亦當以平日行為感化之不必徒騰口說也。

然則得罪於兄弟、傷害其脆弱之良心、直獲罪於基督耳。

夫吾之所以寓書於爾等者、固非為彼作惡者之故、亦非為被害者之故、惟欲在天主明鑒之下、測驗爾等對於吾儕之誠意云耳。

夫吾乃自由之人、眾人不得而奴焉；顧甘自為眾人之奴者何也、亦欲感化眾人、使最大多數棄邪歸正而已矣。故於猶太人、吾亦儼然以猶太人自居、所以感化猶太人也。於法內之人、吾亦儼然以法內之人自居、所以感化法內之人也；實則其法無與於我耳。於法外之人、吾亦儼然以法外之人自居、所以感化法外之人也；實則就天主及基督之妙法言之、吾亦法內之人耳。

而侵害兄弟、欺負兄弟、皆天主所不容、報應孔邇；此點吾儕前已鄭重言之。
