Bible verse
Therefore I tell you, because her many sins have been forgiven, she has loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.”
Luke 7:47 · BSB
The verses around it, from Luke 7.
43 “I suppose the one who was forgiven more,” Simon replied. “You have judged correctly,” Jesus said.
44 And turning toward the woman, He said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? When I entered your house, you did not give Me water for My feet, but she wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.
45 You did not greet Me with a kiss, but she has not stopped kissing My feet since I arrived.
46 You did not anoint My head with oil, but she has anointed My feet with perfume.
47 Therefore I tell you, because her many sins have been forgiven, she has loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.”
48 Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49 But those at the table began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 And Jesus told the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”
