42 “And when they were unable to repay, he forgave them both. Which of them, then, shall love him more?”
43 And Shim‛on answering, said, “I suppose the one whom he forgave more.” And He said to him, “You have rightly judged.”
44 And turning to the woman He said to Shim‛on, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house – you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has wetted My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 “You gave Me no kiss, but she has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in.
46 “You did not anoint My head with oil, but she anointed My feet with perfume.
47 “Therefore I say to you, her many sins have been forgiven, because she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, he loves little.”
48 And He said to her, “Your sins have been forgiven.”
