Verse
Luke - ch 7 v 41 - 50
- A certain creditor had two debtors, the one who owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
- And whereas they had not wherewith to pay, he forgave them both. Which therefore of the two loveth him most?
- Simon answering, said: I suppose that he to whom he forgave most. And he said to him: Thou hast judged rightly.
- 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.
- Thou gavest me no kiss; but she, since she came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
- My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she with ointment hath anointed my feet.
- Wherefore I say to thee: Many sins are forgiven her, because she hath loved much. But to whom less is forgiven, he loveth less.
- And he said to her: Thy sins are forgiven thee.
- And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves: Who is this that forgiveth sins also?
- And he said to the woman: Thy faith hath made thee safe, go in peace.
