1 Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, which had been dead, whom He raised from the dead.
2 There they made Him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with Him.
3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
4 Then saith one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, which should betray Him,
5 “Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?”
6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.
7 Then said Jesus, “Let her alone: against the day of My burying hath she kept this.”
8 “For the poor always ye have with you; but Me ye have not always.”
