The correct response is:

If two triangles have three pairs of congruent sides, then the triangles are congruent.

This statement accurately reflects the SSS (Side-Side-Side) Congruence Theorem, which states that if all three sides of one triangle are equal in length to all three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
