From your reading, what is the earliest document that focuses, to at least some extent, on person-to-person forgiving?

From my reading, the earliest account of person-to-person forgiveness that gives some details is the story of Joseph forgiving his half-brothers for attempted murder and selling him into slavery in Egypt.  You can read this important narrative in Genesis, chapters 37-45.  The fact that nine chapters are devoted to this story of forgiveness is impressive.
