A odpověděv, řekl jí Ježíš: Marta, Marta, pečlivá jsi, a rmoutíš se při mnohých věcech.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Jesus answered and said unto her,.... Calling her by her name, and repeating it, Martha, Martha, which expresses great intimacy and friendship, and much earnestness, and, as it were, pitying her present situation and circumstances:
thou art careful and troubled about many things; intimating, that she was over anxious, and too solicitous, and more thoughtful and careful than she need be: he did not require such preparations for him, and so much attendance; she gave herself an unnecessary trouble in providing so many things for his entertainment, when less would have sufficed; so that instead of joining with her in her request, he reproves her for her over anxious care and solicitude, to have a nice and plentiful feast. The Persic version gives a sense quite contrary to the design of the text, rendering the words thus, "thou art adorned in all things, and hast the preference above many women".
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Thou art careful - Thou art anxious.
Troubled - Disturbed, distracted, very solicitous.
Many things - The many objects which excite your attention in the family. This was probably designed as a slight reproof, or a tender hint that she was improperly anxious about those things, and that she should, with Mary, rather choose to hear the discourses of heavenly wisdom.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Luke 10:41. Thou art careful and troubled — Thou art distracted, μεÏιμναÏ, thy mind is divided, (Matthew 13:22,) in consequence of which, ÏÏ Ïβαζη, thou art disturbed, thy spirit is thrown into a tumult.
About many things. — Getting a variety of things ready for this entertainment, much more than are necessary on such an occasion.
