The Precious Ointment
6
1
Now
when
Jesus
was in
2
Bethany
, at the
home
of
Simon
the
leper
,
7
3
a
woman
came
to Him with an
alabaster
vial
of
very
costly
perfume
, and she
poured
it on His
head
as He
reclined
at the table.
8
But the
disciples
were
indignant
when they
saw
this, and
said
,
"Why
*
this
waste
?
9
"For
this
perfume
might
have been
sold
for a
high
price
and the money
given
to the
poor
."
10
But
Jesus
,
aware
of this,
said
to them,
"Why
do you
bother
*
the
woman
? For she has
done
a
good
deed
to Me.
11
"For you
always
have
4
the
poor
with you; but you do not
always
have
Me.
12
"For when she
poured
this
perfume
on My
body
, she
did
it
5
to
prepare
Me for
burial
.
13
"Truly
I
say
to you,
6
wherever
*
this
gospel
is
preached
in the
whole
world
,
what
this
woman
has
done
will
also
be
spoken
of in
memory
of her."
