Luke 7:40-50
40And Jesus responded and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” And he 1replied, “Say it, Teacher.”
41“A moneylender had two debtors: the one owed five hundred 23denarii, and the other, fifty.
42When they 4were unable to repay, he canceled the debts of both. So which of them will love him more?”
43Simon answered and said, “I assume the one for whom he canceled the greater debt.” And He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
44And turning toward the woman, He said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you 5gave Me no water for My feet, but she has wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.
45You 67gave Me no kiss; but she has not stopped kissing My feet since the time I came in.
468You did not 9anoint My head with oil, but she anointed My feet with perfume.
47For this reason I say to you, her sins, which are many, have been forgiven, for she loved much; but the one who is forgiven little, loves little.”
48And He said to her, “10Your sins have been forgiven.”
49And then those who were reclining at the table with Him began saying 11to themselves, “12Who is this Man who even forgives sins?”
50And He said to the woman, “13Your faith has saved you; 14go in peace.”
