1
And when Jesus had come to the end of all these words, he said to his disciples,
2
After two days is the Passover, and the Son of man will be given up to the death of the cross.
3
Then the chief priests and the rulers of the people came together in the house of the high priest, who was named Caiaphas.
4
And they made designs together to take Jesus by some trick, and put him to death.
5
But they said, Not while the feast is going on, for fear of trouble among the people.
6
Now when Jesus was in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper,
7
There came to him a woman having a bottle of perfume of great price, and she put the perfume on his head when he was seated at table.
8
But when the disciples saw it they were angry, saying, To what purpose is this waste?
9
For we might have got much money for this and given it to the poor.
