Martha and Mary

38 Now as they traveled along, he entered into a certain village. And a certain woman ⌊named⌋[fn] Martha welcomed him.[fn] 39 And ⌊she had⌋[fn] a sister named Mary, who also sat at the feet of Jesus[fn] and[fn] was listening to his teaching. 40 But Martha was distracted with much preparation, so she approached and[fn] said, “Lord, is it not a concern to you that my sister has left me alone to make preparations? Then tell her that she should help me!” 41 But the Lord answered and[fn] said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things! 42 But few things are necessary, or only one thing,[fn] for Mary has chosen the better part, which will not be taken away from her.”
