7 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

36One of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him, and he went into the Pharisee's house, and took his place at table.A Sinful Woman Forgiven Lk.7.36-50 (Capernaum?)Ἠρώτα δέ τις αὐτὸν τῶν Φαρισαίων ἵνα φάγῃ μετ' αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἰσελθὼν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Φαρισαίου κατεκλίθη.
37And behold, a woman of the city, who was a sinner, when she learned that he was at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of ointment, καὶ ἰδοὺ γυνὴ ἡτις ἦν ἐν τῇ πόλει ἀμαρτωλός, καὶ ἐπιγνοῦσα ὅτι κατάκειται ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ τοῦ Φαρισαίου, κομίσασα ἀλάβαστρον μύρου
38and standing behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment. καὶ στᾶσα ὀπίσω παρὰ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ κλαίουσα, τοῖς δάκρυσιν ἠρξατο βρέχειν τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ καὶ ταῖς θριξὶν τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτῆς ἐξέμασσεν, καὶ κατεφίλει τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἠλειφεν τῷ μύρῳ.
39Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, "If this man were a prophet, he would have known who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him, for she is a sinner." ἰδὼν δὲ ὁ Φαρισαῖος ὁ καλέσας αὐτὸν εἶπεν ἐν ἑαυτῷ λέγων, Οὗτος εἰ ἦν προφήτης, ἐγίνωσκεν ἂν τίς καὶ ποταπὴ ἡ γυνὴ ἡτις ἀπτεται αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἀμαρτωλός ἐστιν.
40And Jesus answering said to him, "Simon, I have something to say to you." And he answered, "What is it, Teacher?"  καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν, Σίμων, ἐχω σοί τι εἰπεῖν. ὁ δέ, Διδάσκαλε, εἰπέ, φησίν.
41"A certain creditor had two debtors; one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.  δύο χρεοφειλέται ἦσαν δανιστῇ τινι· ὁ εἷς ὠφειλεν δηνάρια πεντακόσια, ὁ δὲ ἑτερος πεντήκοντα.
42When they could not pay, he forgave them both. Now which of them will love him more?"  μὴ ἐχόντων αὐτῶν ἀποδοῦναι ἀμφοτέροις ἐχαρίσατο. τίς οὖν αὐτῶν πλεῖον ἀγαπήσει αὐτόν;
43Simon answered, "The one, I suppose, to whom he forgave more." And he said to him, "You have judged rightly."  ἀποκριθεὶς Σίμων εἶπεν, Ὑπολαμβάνω ὅτι ᾧ τὸ πλεῖον ἐχαρίσατο. ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, Ὀρθῶς ἐκρινας.
44Then 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.  καὶ στραφεὶς πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα τῷ Σίμωνι ἐφη, Βλέπεις ταύτην τὴν γυναῖκὰ; εἰσῆλθόν σου εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν, ὑδωρ μοι ἐπὶ πόδας οὐκ ἐδωκας· αὑτη δὲ τοῖς δάκρυσιν ἐβρεξέν μου τοὺς πόδας καὶ ταῖς θριξὶν αὑτῆς ἐξέμαξεν.
45You gave me no kiss, but from the time I came in she has not ceased to kiss my feet.  φίλημά μοι οὐκ ἐδωκας· αὑτη δὲ ἀφ' ἧς εἰσῆλθον οὐ διέλιπεν καταφιλοῦσά μου τοὺς πόδας.
46You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.  ἐλαίῳ τὴν κεφαλήν μου οὐκ ἠλειψας· αὑτη δὲ μύρῳ ἠλειψεν τοὺς πόδας μου.
47Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much; but he who is forgiven little, loves little."  οὗ χάριν λέγω σοι, ἀφέωνται αἱ ἀμαρτίαι αὐτῆς αἱ πολλαί, ὅτι ἠγάπησεν πολύ· ᾧ δὲ ὀλίγον ἀφίεται, ὀλίγον ἀγαπᾷ.
48And he said to her, "Your sins are forgiven."  εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῇ, Ἀφέωνταί σου αἱ ἀμαρτίαι.
49Then those who were at table with him began to say among themselves, "Who is this, who even forgives sins?" καὶ ἠρξαντο οἱ συνανακείμενοι λέγειν ἐν ἑαυτοῖς, Τίς οὗτός ἐστιν ὃς καὶ ἀμαρτίας ἀφίησιν;
50And he said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you; go in peace."  εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα, Ἡ πίστις σου σέσωκέν σε· πορεύου εἰς εἰρήνην.

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
