7 There came unto him a woman having an alabaster flask of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat to eat.
8 But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?
9 For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
10 When Jesus knew it, he said unto them,
11 For you have the poor always with you; but me you have not always.
12 For in that she has poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.
13 Verily I say unto you, Wherever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, which this woman has done, be told for a memorial of her.
