John 12:4-6

4 But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (he who was about to betray him), said,

5 “Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii^[a] and ¹given to the poor? ”

6 He said this, not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief, and ²having charge of the moneybag he used to help himself to what was put into it.
