Luke 7:38-50 in English

³⁸ and standing behind at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee that had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him, that she is a sinner.

⁴⁰ And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Teacher, say on.

⁴¹ A certain lender had two debtors: the one owed five hundred shillings, and the other fifty.

⁴² When they had not wherewith to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?

⁴³ Simon answered and said, He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.

⁴⁴ And turning to the woman, he said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath wetted my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair.

⁴⁵ Thou gavest me no kiss: but she, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but she hath anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.

⁴⁸ And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.

⁴⁹ And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?

⁵⁰ And he said unto the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

³⁸ And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.

⁴⁰ And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.

⁴¹ There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.

⁴² And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?

⁴³ Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.

⁴⁴ And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.

⁴⁵ Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.

⁴⁸ And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.

⁴⁹ And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?

⁵⁰ And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

³⁸ And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁸ and standing behind at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

⁴⁷ Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.

⁴⁸ And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.

⁴⁹ And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?

⁵⁰ And he said unto the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

³⁸ As the people there were reclining to eat, the woman stood behind Jesus, at his feet. As she was crying because she was sorry for her sins, her tears fell on Jesus' feet. Then she wiped his feet with her hair, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the perfume.

³⁹ When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw that, he thought, “ Prophets know about other people's lives, so if Jesus were a prophet, he would have known who this woman is who is touching him, and what kind of a person she is. He would have known that she is a prostitute! EUP”

⁴⁰ Jesus said to him, “Simon, there is something I want to tell you (sg).” He replied, “Teacher, what is it?”

⁴¹ Jesus replied, “Two people owed some money to a man who earned money by lending it to others. One owed him five hundred silver coins, and the other owed him fifty silver coins.

⁴² Neither of them was able to pay back what he owed, so the man very kindly said that they did not have to pay back anything. So, which of those two men will love that man more?”

⁴³ Simon replied, “I think that the one who owed the most money and did not have to pay it back will love him more.” Jesus said to him, “That is correct.”

⁴⁴ Then he turned toward the woman, and said to Simon, “◄Think about what this woman has done!/Do you (sg) see what this woman has done?► RHQ When I entered your house, you did not follow our custom of welcoming guests by giving me any water to wash my feet, but this woman has wet my feet with her tears and then wiped them with her hair!

⁴⁵ You did not follow our custom of greeting by kissing me, but since I came in, this woman has not stopped kissing my feet!

⁴⁶ You did not follow our custom of welcoming guests by anointing my head with olive oil, but she has anointed my feet with fragrant perfume.

⁴⁷ So I will tell you that even though this woman has sinned very much, she has been forgiven { I have forgiven her}. By what she has done she has shown that she loves me very much. But a person who has sinned just a little bit, but whom I have forgiven, will love me just a little bit.”

⁴⁸ Then he said to the woman, “You have been forgiven { I have forgiven you} for your sins.”

⁴⁹ Then those who were eating with him said among themselves, “◄This man must think that he is God!/Who does this man think that he is RHQ►, saying that he can forgive people for their sins?”

⁵⁰ But Jesus said to the woman, “Because you have trusted PRS in me, God has saved you from the guilt of your sins. May God give you inner peace as you go!”

³⁸ Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

⁴⁰ Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”

⁴¹ “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴² When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”

⁴³ Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴⁴ Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.

⁴⁵ You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”

⁴⁸ He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

⁴⁹ Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

³⁸ Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

⁴⁰ Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”

⁴¹ “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴² When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”

⁴³ Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴⁴ Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.

⁴⁵ You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”

⁴⁸ He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

⁴⁹ Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

³⁸ Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

⁴⁰ Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”

⁴¹ “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴² When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”

⁴³ Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴⁴ Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.

⁴⁵ You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”

⁴⁸ He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

⁴⁹ Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

³⁸ And went in and took her place at the back of him, near his feet, weeping, so that his feet were washed with the drops from her eyes, and with her hair she made them dry, and kissing his feet she put the perfume on them.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee in whose house he was saw it, he said to himself, This man, if he was a prophet, would be conscious what sort of woman this is who has put her hands on him, that she is a sinner.

⁴⁰ And Jesus, answering, said, Simon, I have something to say to you. And he said, Master, say on.

⁴¹ And he said, Two men were in debt to a certain man of business: one had a debt of five hundred pence, and the other of fifty.

⁴² When they were unable to make payment, he made the two of them free of their debts. Which of them, now, will have the greater love for him?

⁴³ Simon, in answer, said, It seems he whose debt was greater. And he said, Your decision is right.

⁴⁴ And turning to the woman he said to Simon, You see this woman? I came into your house; you did not give me water for my feet: but she has been washing my feet with the drops from her eyes, and drying them with her hair.

⁴⁵ You did not give me a kiss: but she, from the time when I came in, has gone on kissing my feet.

⁴⁶ You put no oil on my head: but she has put perfume on my feet.

⁴⁷ And so I say to you, She will have forgiveness for her sins which are great in number, because of her great love: but he who has small need of forgiveness gives little love.

⁴⁸ And he said to her, You have forgiveness for your sins.

⁴⁹ And those who were seated at table with him said to themselves, Who is this who even gives forgiveness of sins?

⁵⁰ And he said to the woman, By your faith you have salvation; go in peace.

³⁸ and standing at his feet behind him weeping, began to wash his feet with tears; and she wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the myrrh.

³⁹ And the Pharisee who had invited him, seeing it, spoke with himself saying, This person if he were a prophet would have known who and what the woman is who touches him, for she is a sinner.

⁴⁰ And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he says, Teacher, say it.

⁴¹ There were two debtors of a certain creditor: one owed five hundred denarii and the other fifty;

⁴² but as they had nothing to pay, he forgave both of them their debt: say, which of them therefore will love him most?

⁴³ And Simon answering said, I suppose he to whom he forgave the most. And he said to him, Thou hast rightly judged.

⁴⁴ And turning to the woman he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; thou gavest me not water on my feet, but she has washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair.

⁴⁵ Thou gavest me not a kiss, but she from the time I came in has not ceased kissing my feet.

⁴⁶ My head with oil thou didst not anoint, but she has anointed my feet with myrrh.

⁴⁷ For which cause I say to thee, Her many sins are forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loves little.

⁴⁸ And he said to her, Thy sins are forgiven.

⁴⁹ And they that were with them at table began to say within themselves, Who is this who forgives also sins?

⁵⁰ And he said to the woman, Thy faith has saved thee; go in peace.

³⁸ And standing behind at his feet, she began to wash his feet, with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ And the Pharisee, who had invited him, seeing it, spoke within himself, saying: This man, if he were a prophet, would know surely who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him, that she is a sinner.

⁴⁰ And Jesus answering, said to him: Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. But he said: Master, say it.

⁴¹ A certain creditor had two debtors, the one who owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.

⁴² And whereas they had not wherewith to pay, he forgave them both. Which therefore of the two loveth him most?

⁴³ Simon answering, said: I suppose that he to whom he forgave most. And he said to him: Thou hast judged rightly.

⁴⁴ And turning to the woman, he said unto Simon: Dost thou see this woman? I entered into thy house, thou gavest me no water for my feet; but she with tears hath washed my feet, and with her hairs hath wiped them.

⁴⁵ Thou gavest me no kiss; but she, since she came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she with ointment hath anointed my feet.

⁴⁷ Wherefore I say to thee: Many sins are forgiven her, because she hath loved much. But to whom less is forgiven, he loveth less.

⁴⁸ And he said to her: Thy sins are forgiven thee.

⁴⁹ And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves: Who is this that forgiveth sins also?

⁵⁰ And he said to the woman: Thy faith hath made thee safe, go in peace.

³⁸ and standing by His feet behind Him weeping; she began to wash His feet with her tears, and was wiping them with the hair of her head; and she was kissing His feet and anointing them with the perfume.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke within himself, saying, “This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what sort of woman this is who touches Him, for she is a sinner.”

⁴⁰ And Jesus answered and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” And he said, “Teacher, say it.”

⁴¹ “There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other owed fifty.

⁴² And when they had nothing with which to pay back, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?”

⁴³ Simon answered and said, “I suppose it is the one to whom he forgave more.” And He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴⁴ And turning to the woman, He said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but this woman has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.

⁴⁵ You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not stopped kissing My feet since the time I came in.

⁴⁶ You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with perfume.

⁴⁷ For which reason I say to you, her many sins have been forgiven, because she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”

⁴⁸ Then He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

⁴⁹ And those who were reclining at the table with Him began to say within themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ Then He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

³⁸ and as she stood behind Him at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears and kept wiping them with the hair of her head; and she kept kissing His feet and anointing them with the perfume.

³⁹ Now as the Pharisee who had invited Him observed this, he was saying to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who is touching him, including what sort of woman she is—because she is a sinner!”

⁴⁰ So Jesus reacted by saying to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” And he said, “Teacher, say on.”

⁴¹ “A certain creditor had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴² And when they had no way to repay, he freely forgave them both. Now tell me, which of them will love him more?”

⁴³ So Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one to whom he forgave more.” And He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴⁴ Then He turned toward the woman and said to Simon: “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.

⁴⁵ You gave me no kiss, but she has not stopped kissing my feet since the time I came in.

⁴⁶ You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfume.

⁴⁷ For this reason, I say to you, her many sins have been forgiven, because she loved much; but to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”

⁴⁸ Then He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

⁴⁹ The other recliners began to say within themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ Then He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go into peace.”

³⁸ She kneeled beside Jesus and with her tears wet his feet, and dried them with her hair. She kissed his feet, and then she poured the perfume over them.

³⁹ When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this he said to himself, “If this man was really a prophet he would know who this woman was who's touching him, and what kind of person she was—that she's a sinner!”

⁴⁰ Jesus spoke up and said, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” “Tell me, Teacher,” he responded.

⁴¹ “Once two people were in debt to a money-lender. One owed five hundred denarii, the other only fifty.

⁴² Neither of them could repay him, so he forgave the debts. Which one will love him the most?”

⁴³ “The one he forgave the most, I would think,” Simon answered. “You're absolutely right,” said Jesus.

⁴⁴ Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “You see this woman? When I came into your house, you didn't give me water to wash my feet. But she has washed my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair.

⁴⁵ You didn't give me a kiss, but since I came in she hasn't stopped kissing my feet.

⁴⁶ You didn't anoint my head with oil, but she poured perfume over my feet.

⁴⁷ So I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—that's why she loves so much. But whoever is forgiven little, only loves a little.”

⁴⁸ Then Jesus said to the woman, “Your sins have been forgiven.”

⁴⁹ Those who were sitting eating with him began talking among themselves, saying, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ But Jesus told the woman, “Your trust has saved you, go in peace.”

³⁸ And shee stoode at his feete behinde him weeping, and began to wash his feete with teares, and did wipe them with the heares of her head, and kissed his feete, and anoynted them with the oyntment.

³⁹ Nowe when the Pharise which bade him, saw it, he spake within himselfe, saying, If this man were a Prophet, hee woulde surely haue knowen who, and what maner of woman this is which toucheth him: for she is a sinner.

⁴⁰ And Iesus answered, and saide vnto him, Simon, I haue somewhat to say vnto thee. And he said, Master, say on.

⁴¹ There was a certaine lender which had two detters: the one ought fiue hundreth pence, and the other fiftie:

⁴² When they had nothing to pay, he forgaue them both: Which of them therefore, tell mee, will loue him most?

⁴³ Simon answered, and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgaue most. And he said vnto him, Thou hast truely iudged.

⁴⁴ Then he turned to the woman, and said vnto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entred into thine house, and thou gauest mee no water to my feete: but she hath washed my feete with teares, and wiped them with the heares of her head.

⁴⁵ Thou gauest me no kisse: but she, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kisse my feete.

⁴⁶ Mine head with oyle thou didest not anoint: but she hath anoynted my feete with oyntment.

⁴⁷ Wherefore I say vnto thee, many sinnes are forgiuen her: for she loued much. To whom a litle is forgiuen, he doeth loue a litle.

⁴⁸ And he saide vnto her, Thy sinnes are forgiuen thee.

⁴⁹ And they that sate at table with him, began to say within themselues, Who is this that euen forgiueth sinnes?

⁵⁰ And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saued thee: goe in peace.

³⁸ and stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.

⁴⁰ And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.

⁴¹ There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one ought five hundred pence, and the other fifty.

⁴² And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?

⁴³ Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.

⁴⁴ And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.

⁴⁵ Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ Mine head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.

⁴⁸ And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.

⁴⁹ And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?

⁵⁰ And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

³⁸ and standing behind at his feet, weeping, began to wet his feet with tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ And the Pharisee who had invited him, when he saw this, said within himself, This man, if he were a prophet, would know who, and what sort of woman, this is that toucheth him; for she is a sinner.

⁴⁰ And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Teacher, say on.

⁴¹ A certain money-lender had two debtors; one owed five hundred denaries, and the other fifty.

⁴² When they had nothing to pay, he freely remitted the debt of both. Which of them, now, will love him the most?

⁴³ Simon answering said, He, I suppose, to whom he remitted the most. And he said to him, Thou hast judged rightly.

⁴⁴ And turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered thy house, no water didst thou give me for my feet; but she wet my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair.

⁴⁵ No kiss didst thou give me; but she, from the time I came in, did not cease to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she anointed my feet with costly ointment.

⁴⁷ Wherefore, I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loveth little.

⁴⁸ And he said to her, Thy sins have been forgiven.

⁴⁹ And those who were at table with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?

⁵⁰ But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

³⁸ and placed herself behind Jesus, near his feet, weeping. Then she began to make his feet wet with her tears, and she dried them with the hair of her head, repeatedly kissing his feet and anointing them with the perfume.

³⁹ When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this, he said to himself, “Had this man been ‘the prophet,’ he would have known who, and what sort of woman, this is who is touching him, and that she is an outcast.”

⁴⁰ But, addressing him, Jesus said, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” “Pray do so, teacher,” Simon answered; and Jesus began,

⁴¹ “There were two people who were in debt to a moneylender; one owed five hundred silver coins, and the other fifty.

⁴² As they were unable to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them, do you think, will love him the more?”

⁴³ “I suppose,” answered Simon, “it will be the man to whom he forgave the greater debt.” “You are right,” said Jesus,

⁴⁴ and then, turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house — you gave me no water for my feet, but she has made my feet wet with her tears and dried them with her hair.

⁴⁵ You did not give me one kiss, but she, from the moment I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ You did not anoint even my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfume.

⁴⁷ So I tell you, her great love shows that her sins, many as they are, have been pardoned. One who is pardoned little loves little.”

⁴⁸ Then he said to the woman, “Your sins have been pardoned.”

⁴⁹ The other guests began to say to one another, “Who is this man who even pardons sins?”

⁵⁰ But Jesus said to the woman, “Your faith has delivered you; go, and peace be with you.”

³⁸ and placed herself behind Jesus, near his feet, weeping. Then she began to make his feet wet with her tears, and she dried them with the hair of her head, repeatedly kissing his feet and anointing them with the perfume.

³⁹ When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this, he said to himself, “Had this man been ‘the prophet,’ he would have known who, and what sort of woman, this is who is touching him, and that she is an outcast.”

⁴⁰ But, addressing him, Jesus said, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” “Pray do so, teacher,” Simon answered; and Jesus began,

⁴¹ “There were two people who were in debt to a moneylender; one owed five hundred silver coins, and the other fifty.

⁴² As they were unable to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them, do you think, will love him the more?”

⁴³ “I suppose,” answered Simon, “it will be the man to whom he forgave the greater debt.” “You are right,” said Jesus,

⁴⁴ and then, turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house — you gave me no water for my feet, but she has made my feet wet with her tears and dried them with her hair.

⁴⁵ You did not give me one kiss, but she, from the moment I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ You did not anoint even my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfume.

⁴⁷ So I tell you, her great love shows that her sins, many as they are, have been pardoned. One who is pardoned little loves little.”

⁴⁸ Then he said to the woman, “Your sins have been pardoned.”

⁴⁹ The other guests began to say to one another, “Who is this man who even pardons sins?”

⁵⁰ But Jesus said to the woman, “Your faith has delivered you; go, and peace be with you.”

³⁸ Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee Separated who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

⁴⁰ Yeshua Salvation answered him, “Simeon Hearing, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”

⁴¹ “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii (500 days wages), and the other fifty denarii (50 days wages).

⁴² When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will show agapao ·total devotion love· to him most?”

⁴³ Simeon Hearing answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴⁴ Turning to the woman, he said to Simeon Hearing, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.

⁴⁵ You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she showed agapao ·totally devoted love· much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same shows little agapao ·totally devoted love·.”

⁴⁸ He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

⁴⁹ Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ He said to the woman, “Your trusting faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

³⁸ Then she went inside and stood behind Jesus. She was crying and her tears fell on his feet. Then she dried his feet with her hair, and she kissed them, then she poured all that special oil on to his feet.

³⁹ The Jewish law man saw her do that and he said to himself, “I knew it. This man is not one of God’s men. He is letting a bad woman touch him. I reckon he doesn’t know she did a lot of bad things, so I reckon he doesn’t have God’s power.”

⁴⁰ Jesus said to him, “Simon, I want to tell you something.” Simon said, “All right, Teacher, tell me.”

⁴¹ Then Jesus told him a picture story, he said, “There was a rich man that used to lend money to people. He lent one man $500, and he lent another man $50.

⁴² But both of those men had bad luck and lost all their money. They couldn’t pay that money back to the rich man. But the rich man was good to both of them and told them, ‘Don’t worry, I’ll let it go. You don’t have to pay me that money.’ Well, Simon, what do you reckon? Which one of those men will love that rich man the most?”

⁴³ Simon said, “I reckon it is the man that owed him the most money, and didn’t have to pay it back.” Jesus said, “You are right.”

⁴⁴ Then he turned towards the woman and said, “Simon, look at this woman. When I came into your house, you didn’t give me water to wash my feet, but she washed my feet with her tears, and dried them with her hair.

⁴⁵ You didn’t kiss me on the cheek to make me feel good, but this woman keeps on kissing my feet.

⁴⁶ You didn’t put any olive oil on my head, like people do for their friends, but she put special oil on my feet. It smells real good, and it cost her a lot of money.

⁴⁷ Listen, I know she did a lot of bad things, but am telling her that I will let it go and I will say she is not guilty. That is why she loves me a lot. But if somebody only did a few bad things, and I let it go, they will only love me a little bit.”

⁴⁸ Then Jesus said to the woman, “That’s right. You did bad things, but I am letting it go, and I will say you are not guilty.”

⁴⁹ The other people there said to each other, “Who does this man think he is? He reckons he can say that somebody is not guilty, and then God will not punish them for the bad things they did.”

⁵⁰ But Jesus said to the woman, “You trusted me, so you will not get trouble for the bad things you did. Don’t worry, you can go away happy and quiet now.”

³⁸ and she stode at his fete behynde him wepynge and beganne to wesshe his fete with teares and dyd wipe the with the heares of her heed and kyssed his fete and anoynted them with oyntment.

³⁹ When the pharise which bade him sawe that he spake with in him sylfe sayinge: If this man were a prophete he wolde surely have knowen who and what maner woman this is which toucheth him for she is a synner.

⁴⁰ And Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: Simon I have some what to saye vnto the. And he sayd master saye on.

⁴¹ There was a certayne lender which had two detters the one ought five hondred pence and the other fyfty.

⁴² When they had nothinge to paye he forgave the boothe. Which of them tell me will love him moost?

⁴³ Simon answered and sayde: I suppose that he to whom he forgave moost. And he sayde vnto him: Thou hast truly iudged.

⁴⁴ And he turned to the woman and sayde vnto Simon: Seist thou this woman? I entred into thy housse and thou gavest me noo water to my fete but she hath wesshed my fete with teares and wiped the with the heeres of her heed.

⁴⁵ Thou gavest me no kysse: but she sence the tyme I came in hath not ceased to kysse my fete

⁴⁶ Myne heed with oyle thou dydest not anoynte: but she hath annoynted my fete with oyntmet.

⁴⁷ Wherefore I saye vnto the: many synnes are forgeve her for she loved moche. To whom lesse is forgeven the same doeth lesse love.

⁴⁸ And he sayde vnto her thy synnes are forgeven the.

⁴⁹ And they that sate at meate with him beganne to saye within them selves: Who is this which forgeveth synnes also?

⁵⁰ And he sayde to the woman: Thy faith hath saved the Goo in peace.

³⁸ As she stood behind him near his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head and kissed his feet and anointed them with perfumed oil.

³⁹ When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this, he thought to himself, saying, “If this man were a prophet, then he would know who and what type of woman is touching him, that she is a sinner.”

⁴⁰ Jesus responded and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” He said, “Say it, Teacher!”

⁴¹ Jesus said, “A certain moneylender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴² When they could not pay him, he forgave them both. Therefore, which of them will love him more?”

⁴³ Simon answered him and said, “I suppose the one whom he forgave the most.” Jesus said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴⁴ Jesus turned to the woman and said to Simon, “You see this woman. I have entered into your house. You gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.

⁴⁵ You did not give me a kiss, but from the time I came in she did not stop kissing my feet.

⁴⁶ You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfumed oil.

⁴⁷ Therefore I say to you, her sins, which were many, have been forgiven—for she loved much. But the one who is forgiven little, loves little.”

⁴⁸ Then he said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

⁴⁹ Those reclining together began to say among themselves, “Who is this that even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ Then Jesus said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

³⁸ Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

⁴⁰ Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”

⁴¹ “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴² When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”

⁴³ Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴⁴ Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.

⁴⁵ You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”

⁴⁸ He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

⁴⁹ Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

³⁸ Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

⁴⁰ Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”

⁴¹ “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴⁹ Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

³⁸ And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him, saw it , he spoke within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who, and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him, for she is a sinner.

⁴⁰ And Jesus answering, said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Master, speak.

⁴¹ There was a certain creditor, who had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.

⁴² And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?

⁴³ Simon answered and said, I suppose that he , to whom he forgave most. And he said to him, Thou hast rightly judged.

⁴⁴ And he turned to the woman, and said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.

⁴⁵ Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ Wherefore I say to thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.

⁴⁸ And he said to her, Thy sins are forgiven.

⁴⁹ And they that sat at table with him, began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?

⁵⁰ And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

³⁸ Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

⁴⁰ Yeshua answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Rabbi, say on.”

⁴¹ “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴² When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”

⁴³ Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴⁴ Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.

⁴⁷ Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”

⁴⁸ He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

³⁸ Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

⁴¹ “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴⁹ Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰ He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

³⁸ and she stood behind beside his feet, and began to moist his feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed with ointment.

³⁹ And the Pharisee seeing, that had called him, said within himself, saying, If this were a prophet, he should know, who and what manner woman it were or it is that toucheth him, for she is a sinful woman.

⁴⁰ And Jesus answered, and said to him, Simon, I have something to say to thee. And he said, Master, say thou.

⁴¹ And he answered, Two debtors were to one lender; and one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty;

⁴² but when they had not whereof to yield, he forgave freely to both. Who of them then loveth him more?

⁴³ Simon answered, and said, I guess, that he to whom he forgave more. And he answered to him, Thou hast deemed rightly.

⁴⁴ And he turned to the woman, and said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest no water to my feet; but this woman hath moisted my feet with tears, and wiped with her hairs.

⁴⁵ Thou hast not given to me a kiss; but this woman, since she entered or since I entered, ceased not to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ Thou anointedest not mine head with oil; but this anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ For which thing I say to thee, many sins be forgiven to her, for she hath loved much; and to whom is less forgiven, he loveth less.

⁴⁸ And Jesus said to her, Thy sins be forgiven to thee.

⁴⁹ And they that sat together at the meat, began to say within themselves, Who is this that also forgiveth sins.

⁵⁰ But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath made thee safe; go thou in peace.

³⁸ and she stood behind beside his feet, and began to moist(en) his feet with (her) tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed (them) with ointment.

³⁹ And the Pharisee seeing, that had called him, said within himself, saying, If this were a prophet, he should know, who and what manner woman it were that toucheth him, or If this were a prophet, soothly he should know, who and what manner woman it is that toucheth him, for she is a sinful woman.

⁴⁰ And Jesus answered, and said to him, Simon, I have something to say to thee. And he said, Master, say thou, (or Teacher, tell me).

⁴¹ And he answered, Two debtors were to one lender; and one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty;

⁴² but when they had not whereof to yield, he forgave freely to both. Who of them then loveth him more?

⁴³ Simon answered, and said, I guess, that he to whom he forgave more. And he answered to him, Thou hast deemed rightly (or Thou hast judged correctly).

⁴⁴ And he turned to the woman, and said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest no water to my feet (or thou gavest me no water for my feet); but this woman hath moist(en)ed my feet with (her) tears, and wiped (them) with her hairs.

⁴⁵ Thou hast not given to me a kiss; but this woman, since she entered or since I entered, ceased not to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶ Thou anointedest not mine head with oil; but this anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷ For which thing I say to thee, many sins be forgiven to her, for she hath loved much; and to whom is less forgiven, he loveth less.

⁴⁸ And Jesus said to her, Thy sins be forgiven to thee.

⁴⁹ And they that sat together at the meat (or And they who sat together at the meal), began to say within themselves, Who is this that also, (or who even), forgiveth sins.

⁵⁰ But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath made thee safe; go thou in peace, (or Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace).

³⁸ and sche stood bihynde bysidis hise feet, and bigan to moiste hise feet with teeris, and wipide with the heeris of hir heed, and kiste hise feet, and anoyntide with oynement.

³⁹ And the Farise seynge, that hadde clepide hym, seide within hym silf, seiynge, If this were a prophete, he schulde wite, who and what maner womman it were that touchith hym, for sche is a synful womman.

⁴⁰ And Jhesus answeride, and seide to hym, Symount, Y haue sumthing to seie to thee. And he seide, Maistir, seie thou.

⁴¹ And he answeride, Twei dettouris weren to o lener; and oon auyt fyue hundrid pans, and `the other fifti;

⁴² but whanne thei hadden not wherof `thei schulden yeelde, he foryaf to bothe. Who thanne loueth hym more?

⁴³ Symount answeride, and seide, Y gesse, that he to whom he foryaf more. And he answeride to hym, Thou hast demyd riytli.

⁴⁴ And he turnede to the womman, and seide to Symount, Seest thou this womman? I entride into thin hous, thou yaf no watir to my feet; but this hath moistid my feet with teeris, and wipide with hir heeris.

⁴⁵ Thou hast not youun to me a cosse; but this, sithen sche entride, ceesside not to kisse my feet.

⁴⁶ Thou anoyntidist not myn heed with oile; but this anoyntide my feet with oynement.

⁴⁷ For the which thing Y seie to thee, many synnes ben foryouun to hir, for sche hath loued myche; and to whom is lesse foryouun, he loueth lesse.

⁴⁸ And Jhesus seide to hir, Thi synnes ben foryouun to thee.

⁴⁹ And thei that saten to gider at the mete, bigunnen to seie with ynne hem silf, Who is this that foryyueth synnes.

⁵⁰ But he seide to the womman, Thi feith hath maad thee saaf; go thou in pees.

³⁸ and having stood behind, beside his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with the tears, and with the hairs of her head she was wiping, and was kissing his feet, and was anointing with the ointment.

³⁹ And the Pharisee who did call him, having seen, spake within himself, saying, 'This one, if he were a prophet, would have known who and of what kind is the woman who doth touch him, that she is a sinner.'

⁴⁰ And Jesus answering said unto him, 'Simon, I have something to say to thee;' and he saith, 'Teacher, say on.'

⁴¹ 'Two debtors were to a certain creditor; the one was owing five hundred denaries, and the other fifty;

⁴² and they not having wherewith to give back, he forgave both; which then of them, say thou, will love him more?'

⁴³ And Simon answering said, 'I suppose that to whom he forgave the more;' and he said to him, 'Rightly thou didst judge.'

⁴⁴ And having turned unto the woman, he said to Simon, 'Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; water for my feet thou didst not give, but this woman with tears did wet my feet, and with the hairs of her head did wipe;

⁴⁵ a kiss to me thou didst not give, but this woman, from what time I came in, did not cease kissing my feet;

⁴⁶ with oil my head thou didst not anoint, but this woman with ointment did anoint my feet;

⁴⁷ therefore I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven, because she did love much; but to whom little is forgiven, little he doth love.'

⁴⁸ And he said to her, 'Thy sins have been forgiven;'

⁴⁹ and those reclining with him (at meat) began to say within themselves, 'Who is this, who also doth forgive sins?'

⁵⁰ and he said unto the woman, 'Thy faith have saved thee, be going on to peace.'
