Luke 7:43

7:43 Simon answered, ¹  “I suppose the one who had the bigger debt canceled.” ²  Jesus ³  said to him, “You have judged rightly.”

Mark 12:34

12:34 When Jesus saw that he had answered thoughtfully, he said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” Then no one dared any longer to question him.

¹ tn Grk “answering, said.” This is redundant in contemporary English and has been simplified to “answered.”

² tn Grk “the one to whom he forgave more” (see v. 42).

³ tn Grk “He”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
