So whatever you wish that others
would do to you, do also to them,
for this is the Law and the
Prophets.
(Matthew 7:12)
ESV
One of the Pharisees asked him to
eat with him, and he went into the
Pharisee's house and took his
place at the table. And behold, a
woman of the city, who was a
sinner, when she learned that he
was reclining at table in the
Pharisee's house, brought an
alabaster flask of ointment, and
standing behind him at his feet,
weeping, she began to wet his feet
with her tears and wiped them with
the hair of her head and kissed
his feet and anointed them with
the ointment. Now when the
Pharisee who had invited him saw
this, he said to himself, “If this
man were a prophet, he would have
known who and what sort of woman
this is who is touching him, for
she is a sinner.” And Jesus
answering said to him, “Simon, I
have something to say to you.” And
he answered, “Say it, Teacher.”

Be kind to one another,

others more significant than
yourselves.
