The First Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians 15: 1-11

15:1	Et notum facio vobis, fratres, Evangelium quod praedicavi vobis, quod et tu accepisti, et in quo stas.
15:2	per evangelium, etiam, tu salvaris, si tenes intellectum quod praedicavi tibi, ne frustra credas.
15:3	Tradidi enim vobis, primo, quod et ego accepi: quia Christus mortuus est pro peccatis nostris, secundum scripturas;
15:4	et quia sepultus est; et resurrexit tertia die, secundum scripturas;
15:5	et quod visus est a Cephas, et postea per undecim.
15:6	Tunc plus quingentis fratribus visus est uno tempore, ex quibus plures remanent, usque ad praesens tempus, quamvis quidam dormierunt.
15:7	deinde, visus est a Iacobo, deinde per omnes Apostolos.
15:8	Novissime omnium, visus est etiam mihi, quasi aliquis natus tempore.
15:9	For I am the least of the Apostles. I am not worthy to be called an Apostle, because I persecuted the Church of God.
15:10	Sed, per gratiam dei, I am what I am. And his grace in me has not been empty, since I have labored more abundantly than all of them. Yet it is not I, but the grace of God within me.
15:11	For whether it is I or they: so we preach, and so you have believed

Evangelium'

Lectio sancti Evangelii secundum Lucam 7: 36-50

7:36	Then certain Pharisees petitioned him, so that they might eat with him. And he went into the house of the Pharisee, and he reclined at table.
7:37	Et ecce, a woman who was in the city, peccator, found out that he was reclining at table in the house of the Pharisee, so she brought an alabaster container of ointment.
7:38	And standing behind him, beside his feet, she began to wash his feet with tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, and she kissed his feet, and she anointed them with ointment.
7:39	Then the Pharisee, who had invited him, upon seeing this, spoke within himself, dicens, "Hic vir, if he were a prophet, would certainly know who and what kind of woman is this, who is touching him: that she is a sinner.”
7:40	Et in responsione, Dixit illi Jesus, "Simon", I have something to say to you.” So he said, “Speak, Teacher.”
7:41	“A certain creditor had two debtors: one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
7:42	And since they did not have the ability to repay him, he forgave them both. Sic igitur, which of them loves him more?"
7:43	In responsum, Simon said, “I suppose that it is he to whom he forgave the most.” And he said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
7:44	And turning to the woman, dixit Simoni: “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house. You gave me no water for my feet. But she has washed my feet with tears, and has wiped them with her hair.
7:45	You gave no kiss to me. Sed illa, from the time that she entered, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
7:46	You did not anoint my head with oil. But she has anointed my feet with ointment.
7:47	Quod huius, tibi dico: many sins are forgiven her, because she has loved much. But he who is forgiven less, loves less.”
7:48	Then he said to her, “Your sins are forgiven you.”
7:49	And those who sat at table with him began to say within themselves, "Qui est hic, who even forgives sins?"
7:50	Then he said to the woman: “Your faith has brought you salvation. Go in peace.”
