Luke 7:41-43

41 “Two people owed money to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii,^[a] and the other fifty.

42 Neither of them had the money to pay him back, so he forgave the debts of both. Now which of them will love him more?”

43 Simon replied, “I suppose the one who had the bigger debt forgiven.” “You have judged correctly,” Jesus said.
