⁴⁴And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, ^hthou gavest me no water for my feet: but ⁱshe hath washed my feet with tears, and ^cwiped them with the hairs of her head. ⁴⁵^kThou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet. ⁴⁶^lMy head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment. ⁴⁷Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she ^mloved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. ⁴⁸And he said unto her, ⁿThy sins are forgiven. ⁴⁹And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, ^oWho is this that forgiveth sins also? ⁵⁰And he said to the woman, ^pThy ^mfaith hath ^qsaved thee; ^rgo in peace.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

Then turning toward the woman he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. You gave me no kiss, but from the time I came in she has not ceased to kiss my feet. You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment. Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven—for she loved much. But he who is forgiven little, loves little.” And he said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” Then those who were at table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this, who even forgives sins?” And he said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”

You neglected the courtesy of olive oil to anoint my head, but she has anointed my feet with rare perfume.

You did not give me water for my feet, but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. You did not give me a kiss, but from the time I entered, she has not stopped kissing my feet. You did not anoint my head with olive oil, but she anointed my feet with perfumed oil. For this reason I tell you, her sins—which were many—have been forgiven, for she loved much. But the one to whom little is forgiven loves little.” And he said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” And those who were reclining at the table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?” And he said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you.
