    Sirach 27:  Forgive your neighbor’s injustice; then when you pray, your own sins will be forgiven.
    Romans 14: For if we live, we live for the Lord, and if we die, we die for the Lord; …
    Matthew 18:  Peter approached Jesus and asked him, “Lord, if my brother sins against me, how often  must I forgive?  As many as seven times?”  Jesus answered, “I say to you, not seven times but seventy -seven times.”
