44. And turning to the woman, he said unto Simon: Dost thou see this woman? I entered into thy house, thou gavest me no water for my feet; but she with tears hath washed my feet, and with her hairs hath wiped them.
45. Thou gavest me no kiss; but she, since she came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46. My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she with ointment hath anointed my feet.
47. Wherefore I say to thee: Many sins are forgiven her, because she hath loved much. But to whom less is forgiven, he loveth less.
48. And he said to her: Thy sins are forgiven thee.
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 made thee safe, go in peace.
