路加福音 7:31-50
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
31 主又說：「我用什麼來比擬這個世代的人呢？他們像什麼呢？ 32 他們就如街頭上戲耍的孩童——彼此呼叫，
『我們吹娶親的樂曲，
你們不跳舞；
我們唱送葬的哀歌，
你們不哭泣。』
33 施洗者約翰來了，禁食禁酒，你們就說他被鬼附身了； 34 人子來了，又吃又喝，你們就說，『看啊，祂是個貪吃好酒之徒，與稅吏和罪人爲友！』 35 然而，智慧會在追求智慧的人身上得到驗證。」
罪婦的悔改
36 有一個法利賽人請耶穌到他家裡吃飯，耶穌應邀赴宴。 37 那城裡住著一個女人，生活敗壞。她聽說耶穌在那法利賽人家裡吃飯，就帶了一個盛滿香膏的玉瓶進去。 38 她站在耶穌背後，挨著祂的腳哭，淚水滴濕了祂的腳，就用自己的頭髮擦乾，又連連親祂的腳，並抹上香膏。
39 請耶穌的法利賽人看在眼裡，心想：「如果這人真的是先知，就該知道摸祂的是誰，是個什麼樣的女人，她是個罪人。」
40 耶穌對他說：「西門，我有話跟你說。」
西門答道：「老師，請說。」
41 耶穌說：「有一個債主借給一個人五百個銀幣，又借給另一個人五十個銀幣。 42 二人都沒有能力還債，這位債主就免了他們的債務。你想，哪一位會更愛債主呢？」
43 西門答道：「我相信是那個被免去較多債的人。」
44 耶穌說：「你判斷得對！」隨後轉向那女人，繼續對西門說：「你看見這女人了嗎？我到你家裡來，你沒有拿水給我洗腳，這女人卻用她的眼淚洗我的腳，還親自用頭髮擦乾。 45 你沒有親吻我，但我進來以後，這女人卻不停地吻我的腳。 46 你沒有用油為我抹頭，這女人卻用香膏抹我的腳。 47 所以我告訴你，她眾多的罪都被赦免了，因此她的愛深切；那些獲得赦免少的，他們的愛也少。」
48 耶穌對那女人說：「你的罪都被赦免了。」
49 同席的人彼此議論說：「這人是誰？竟然能赦免人的罪！」
50 耶穌又對那女人說：「你的信心救了你，平安地走吧！」

King James Version
31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
32 They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.
33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
35 But wisdom is justified of all her children.
36 And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat.
37 And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment,
38 And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
40 And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.
41 There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
42 And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?
43 Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.
44 And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
45 Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.
48 And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.
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 saved thee; go in peace.

New King James Version
31 [a]And the Lord said, (A)“To what then shall I liken the men of this generation, and what are they like? 32 They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another, saying:
‘We played the flute for you,
And you did not dance;
We mourned to you,
And you did not weep.’
33 For (B)John the Baptist came (C)neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’ 34 The Son of Man has come (D)eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look, a glutton and a [b]winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ 35 (E)But wisdom is justified by all her children.”
A Sinful Woman Forgiven
36 (F)Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to eat. 37 And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, 38 and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil. 39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, (G)“This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner.”
40 And Jesus answered and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.”
So he said, “Teacher, say it.”
41 “There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred (H)denarii, and the other fifty. 42 And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?”
43 Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one whom he forgave more.”
And He said to him, “You have rightly judged.” 44 Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no (I)water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head. 45 You gave Me no (J)kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in. 46 (K)You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil. 47 (L)Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”
48 Then He said to her, (M)“Your sins are forgiven.”
49 And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, (N)“Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 Then He said to the woman, (O)“Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
