³⁸Factum est autem, dum irent, et ipse intravit in quoddam castellum: et mulier quædam, Martha nomine, excepit illum in domum suam, ³⁹et huic erat soror nomine Maria, quæ etiam sedens secus pedes Domini, audiebat verbum illius. ⁴⁰Martha autem satagebat circa frequens ministerium: quæ stetit, et ait: Domine, non est tibi curæ quod soror mea reliquit me solam ministrare? dic ergo illi ut me adjuvet. ⁴¹Et respondens dixit illi Dominus: Martha, Martha, sollicita es, et turbaris erga plurima, ⁴²porro unum est necessarium. Maria optimam partem elegit, quæ non auferetur ab ea.
