CH. VII. 36-50.
36 And one of the Pharisees
desired him that he would eat
with him. And he went into the
Pharisee’s house, and sat down
to meat.
37 And behold, a woman in the
city, which was a sinner, when
she knew that _Jesus_ sat at
meat in the Pharisee’s house,
brought an alabaster-box of
ointment,
38 And stood at his feet
behind _him_ weeping, and
began to wash his feet with
tears, and did wipe _them_
with the hairs of her head,
and kissed his feet, and
anointed _them_ with the
ointment.
39 Now, when the Pharisee
which had bidden him, saw
_it_, he spake within himself,
saying, This man, if he were a
prophet, would have known who,
and what manner of woman _this
is_ that toucheth him: for she
is a sinner.
40 And Jesus answering, said
unto him, Simon, I have
somewhat to say unto thee. And
he saith, Master, say on.
41 There was a certain
creditor, which had two
debtors: the one owed five
hundred pence, and the other
fifty.
42 And when they had nothing
to pay, he frankly forgave
them both. Tell me, therefore,
which of them will love him
most?
43 Simon answered and said, I
suppose that _he_, to whom he
forgave most. And he said unto
him, Thou hast rightly judged.
44 And he turned to the woman,
and said unto Simon, Seest
thou this woman? I entered
into thine house, thou gavest
me no water for my feet: but
she hath washed my feet with
tears, and wiped _them_ with
the hairs of her head.
45 Thou gavest me no kiss: but
this woman, since the time I
came in, hath not ceased to
kiss my feet.
46 My head with oil thou didst
not anoint: but this woman
hath anointed my feet with
ointment.
47 Wherefore I say unto thee,
Her sins which are many, are
forgiven; for she loved much:
but to whom little is
forgiven, _the same_ loveth
little.
48 And he said unto her, Thy
sins are forgiven.
49 And they that sat at meat
with him, began to say within
themselves, Who is this that
forgiveth sins also?
50 And he said to the woman,
Thy faith hath saved thee; go
in peace.
§ 47. Jesus, with the Twelve, makes a second circuit in Galilee.
Luke.
CH. VIII. 1-3.
And it came to pass afterward,
that he went throughout every
city and village, preaching
and shewing the glad tidings
of the kingdom of God: and the
twelve were with him.
2 And certain women, which had
been healed of evil spirits
and infirmities, Mary called
Magdalene, out of whom went
seven devils,
3 And Joanna the wife of
Chuza, Herod’s steward, and
Susanna, and many others,
which ministered unto him of
their substance.
