1
And it was done, when Jesus had ended all these words, he said to his disciples,
2
Ye know, that after two days pask shall be made, and man's Son shall be betaken to be crucified.
3
Then the princes of priests and the elder men of the people were gathered into the hall of the prince of priests, that was said Caiaphas,
4
and made a counsel to hold Jesus with guile, and slay him; [and made a counsel, that they should hold Jesus with guile, and slay him;]
5
but they said, Not in the holiday [soothly they said, Not in the feast day], lest peradventure noise were made in the people.
6
And when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leprous,
7
a woman that had a box of alabaster of precious ointment, came to him [a woman having a box of alabaster of precious ointment, came nigh to him], and shedded it out on the head of him resting.
8
And the disciples seeing had disdain, and said [saying], Whereto is this loss?
9
for it might be sold for much [for this might have been sold for much], and be given to poor men.
10
But Jesus knew, and said to them, What be ye heavy to this woman? for she hath wrought in me a good work [she hath wrought a good work in me].
11
For ye shall ever have poor men with you, but ye shall not always have me. [For why ye shall evermore have poor men with you, but ye shall not all-gates have me.]
12
For this woman sending this ointment into my body, did [for] to bury me.
13
Truly I say to you, where ever this gospel shall be preached in all the world, it shall be said, that she did this, in mind of him [it shall be said and that this woman did, into mind of him].
