New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Luke 16
28 for I have five brothers-in order that he may warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’
29 But Abraham *said, ’They have Moses and the Prophets; let them hear them.’
30 But he said, ’No, father Abraham, but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent!’
31 But he said to him, ’If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.’"
Luke 17
1 He said to His disciples, "It is inevitable that stumbling blocks come, but woe to him through whom they come!
2 It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea, than that he would cause one of these little ones to stumble.
3 Be on your guard! If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.
4 And if he sins against you seven times a day, and returns to you seven times, saying, ’I repent,’ forgive him."
5 The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith!"
6 And the Lord said, "If you had faith like a mustard seed, you would say to this mulberry tree, ’Be uprooted and be planted in the sea’; and it would obey you.
7 "Which of you, having a slave plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he has come in from the field, ’Come immediately and sit down to eat’?
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
