Jesus notices that Martha is trying to do too much, so he kindly says: “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and disturbed about many things. ” He then suggests that just one dish of food would be sufficient.
إِلَّا أَنَّ مَرْثَا تَنْهَمِكُ فِي تَجْهِيزِ وَجْبَةٍ خُصُوصِيَّةٍ وَإِنْجَازِ وَاجِبَاتٍ أُخْرَى حِرْصًا عَلَى رَاحَةِ ضَيْفِهَا .‏
