Luke 7:36-47
36But one of the Pharisees begged him that he would eat with him. And entering into the house of the Pharisee he took his place at table;
37and behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, and knew that he was sitting at meat in the house of the Pharisee, having taken an alabaster box of myrrh,
38and 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.
39And 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.
40And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he says, Teacher, say [it].
41There were two debtors of a certain creditor: one owed five hundred denarii and the other fifty;
42but as they had nothing to pay, he forgave both of them [their debt]: [say,] which of them therefore will love him most?
43And Simon answering said, I suppose he to whom he forgave the most. And he said to him, Thou hast rightly judged.
44And 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.
45Thou gavest me not a kiss, but she from the time I came in has not ceased kissing my feet.
46My head with oil thou didst not anoint, but she has anointed my feet with myrrh.
47For which cause I say to thee, Her many sins are forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loves little.
