47. 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.”
48. And he said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49. And those who were reclining at the table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50. And he said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
