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.” [[Luke 7]]:37-48</Ref> Mary kisses his feet to and has expensive oil.

== Mary Anoints Jesus at Bethany ==

1 ¶  Then Jesus six days before the [[passover]] came to Bethany, where ''[[Lazarus]]'' was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.

2  There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.

3  Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and [[anoint]]ed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.

4  Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, which should betray him,


=== Ointment sold ===

5  '''Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?'''

6  This he said, not that he [[care]]d for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.

7  Then said Jesus, <span style="color:#FF0000">'''Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this. '''</span>

8  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.'''</span>

== The Plot to Kill Jesus and Lazarus ==

9  Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might see [[Lazarus]] also, whom he had raised from the dead.

10  But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;

11  Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.

== The Triumphal Entry ==

12 ¶  On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

13  Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, '''Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.'''

14  And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,

15  [[Fear not]], daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass’s colt.<Ref name="colt">Matthew 21:1 ¶  And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,2  Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose [them], and bring [them] unto me.3  And if any [man] say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.4  All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,5  Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.6  And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,7  And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set [him] thereon.
: Mark 11:1 ¶  And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,
Mark 11:2  And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring [him].
Mark 11:3  And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.
Mark 11:4  And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.
Mark 11:5  And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt?
Mark 11:6  And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.
Mark 11:7  And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.
: Luke 19:29  And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called [the mount] of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,30  Saying, Go ye into the village over against [you]; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring [him hither]. 31  And if any man aever man sat: loose him, and bring [him hither].sk you, Why do ye loose [him]? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.32  And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.33  And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?34  And they said, The Lord hath need of him.35  And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.
: Zechariah 9:9 ¶  Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he [is] just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. 10  And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion [shall be] from sea [even] to sea, and from the river [even] to the ends of the earth.11  As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein [is] no water.12 ¶  Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare [that] I will render double unto thee;</Ref>

16  These things understood not his [[disciples]] at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.

17  The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.

18  For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.

19  The [[Pharisees]] therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the [[world]] is gone after him.

== Some Greeks Seek Jesus ==

20 ¶  And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to [[worship]] at the [[feast]]:

21  The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.

22  Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.

23  And Jesus answered them, saying, <span style="color:#FF0000">'''The hour is come, that the [[Son of man]] should be glorified.<Ref name="doxaza'">{{1392}}</Ref>'''</span>

24  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.'''</span>

25  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this [[world]] shall keep it unto life eternal.'''</span>

26  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my [[Father]] honour.'''</span>

== The Son of Man Must Be Lifted Up ==

27 ¶  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.'''</span>

28  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.'''</span>

29  The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him.

30  Jesus answered and said, <span style="color:#FF0000">'''This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.'''</span>

31  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this [[world]] be cast out.'''</span>

32  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.'''</span>

33  This he said, signifying what death he should die.

34  The people answered him, '''We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The [[Son of man]] must be lifted up? who is this [[Son of man]]?
'''
35  Then Jesus said unto them, <span style="color:#FF0000">'''Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest [[darkness]] come upon you: for he that walketh in [[darkness]] knoweth not whither he goeth.'''</span>

== The Unbelief of the People ==

36  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light.'''</span> These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.

=== So many miracles ===

37 ¶  But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:

38  That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

39  Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,

40  He hath blinded their eyes,<Ref name="Blindlead'">{{Blindlead}}</Ref> and hardened their heart;<Ref>Like the words of [[Moses]] recited to [[pharaoh]] in [[Exodus]].</Ref> that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

41  These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

=== Less they put out ===

42 ¶  Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the [[Pharisees]] they did not [[confess]] him, lest they should be [[put out]] of the [[synagogue]]:

43  For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

== Jesus Came to Save the World ==

44 ¶  Jesus cried and said, <span style="color:#FF0000">'''He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.'''</span>

45  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.'''</span>

46  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''I am come a light into the [[world]], that whosoever believeth on me should not [[abide]] in [[darkness]].'''</span>

47  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not<Ref name="Bejudged">{{Bejudged}}</Ref>: for I came not to judge<Ref name="Bejudged">{{Bejudged}}</Ref> the [[world]], but to save the [[world]].'''</span>

48  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.'''</span>

49  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''For I have not spoken of myself; but the [[Father]] which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.'''</span>

50  <span style="color:#FF0000">'''And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the [[Father]] said unto me, so I speak.'''</span>
