Luke 7:41-47
41“A moneylenderG1157 hadG1510 twoG1417 debtorsG5533: the oneG1520 owedG3784 fiveG4001 hundredG4001 12denariiG1220, and the otherG2087, fiftyG4004.
42When they 3were unableG3361G2192 to repayG591, he canceledG5483 the debtsG5483 of bothG297. SoG3767 whichG5101 of them will loveG25 him moreG4183?”
43SimonG4613 answeredG611 and saidG3004, “I assumeG5274 the one for whomG3739 he canceledG5483 the greaterG4183 debtG5483.” And He saidG3004 to him, “You have judgedG2919 correctlyG3723.”
44And turningG4762 towardG4314 the womanG1135, He saidG5346 to SimonG4613, “Do you seeG991 thisG3778 womanG1135? I enteredG1525 your houseG3614; you 4gaveG1325 Me noG3756 waterG5204 for My feetG4228, but she has wetG1026 My feetG4228 with her tearsG1144 and wipedG1591 them with her hairG2359.
45You 56gaveG1325 Me noG3756 kissG5370; but she has not stoppedG1257 kissingG2705 My feetG4228 sinceG575 the time I cameG1525 inG1525.
467You did not 8anointG218 My headG2776 with oilG1637, but she anointedG218 My feetG4228 with perfumeG3464.
47For thisG3739 reasonG5484 I sayG3004 to you, her sinsG266, which are manyG4183, have been forgivenG863, for she lovedG25 muchG4183; but the one whoG3739 is forgivenG863 littleG3641, lovesG25 littleG3641.”
