1. Jesus, therefore, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
2. There they made him a supper; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those that sat at the table with him.
3. Then Mary took a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
4. Then said one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, who should betray him,
5. Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarius and given to the poor?
6. This he said, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief and had the bag and would take from what was put therein.
