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.

Derhalben sage ich dir: Ihr sind viele Sünden vergeben, denn sie hat viel geliebt; welchem aber wenig vergeben wird, der liebt wenig.
Por lo cual te digo que sus muchos pecados son perdonados, porque amó mucho; mas al que se perdona poco, poco ama.
C'est pourquoi, je te le dis, ses nombreux péchés ont été pardonnés: car elle a beaucoup aimé. Mais celui à qui on pardonne peu aime peu.
Per tanto, io ti dico, che i suoi peccati, che sono in gran numero, le son rimessi, perchè ella ha molto amato; ma a chi poco è rimesso poco ama.
Por isso te digo que os seus muitos pecados lhe são perdoados, porque muito amou; mas aquele a quem pouco é perdoado pouco ama.
所以我告訴你,她許多的罪都赦免了,因為她愛的多;而那少得赦免的,愛的就少。」
