Matthew 18:16-18
New American Standard Bible
16 But if he does not listen to you, take one or two more with you, so that (A)on the [a]testimony of two or three witnesses every [b]matter may be confirmed. 17 And if he refuses to listen to them, (B)tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, (C)he is to be to you as [c]a Gentile and [d]a tax collector. 18 Truly I say to you, (D)whatever you [e]bind on earth [f]shall have been bound in heaven; and whatever you [g]loose on earth [h]shall have been loosed in heaven.

16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.
18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
