The Message Bible MSG

1 When Jesus finished saying these things, he told his disciples,

2 "You know that Passover comes in two days. That's when the Son of Man will be betrayed and handed over for crucifixion."

3 At that very moment, the party of high priests and religious leaders was meeting in the chambers of the Chief Priest named Caiaphas,

4 conspiring to seize Jesus by stealth and kill him.

5 They agreed that it should not be done during Passover Week. "We don't want a riot on our hands," they said.

6 When Jesus was at Bethany, a guest of Simon the Leper,

7 a woman came up to him as he was eating dinner and anointed him with a bottle of very expensive perfume.

8 When the disciples saw what was happening, they were furious. "That's criminal!

9 This could have been sold for a lot and the money handed out to the poor."

10 When Jesus realized what was going on, he intervened. "Why are you giving this woman a hard time? She has just done something wonderfully significant for me.

New International Version NIV

1 When Jesus had finished saying all these things, he said to his disciples,

2 “As you know, the Passover is two days away—and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.”

3 Then the chief priests and the elders of the people assembled in the palace of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas,

4 and they schemed to arrest Jesus secretly and kill him.

5 “But not during the festival,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”

6 While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of Simon the Leper,

7 a woman came to him with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, which she poured on his head as he was reclining at the table.

8 When the disciples saw this, they were indignant. “Why this waste?” they asked.

9 “This perfume could have been sold at a high price and the money given to the poor.”

10 Aware of this, Jesus said to them, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful thing to me.
