4 There were some with indignation within themselves, saying, “Why was this ointment wasted?
5 It might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor.” And they grumbled against her.
6 Jesus said, “Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for Me.
7 You always have the poor with you, and whenever you wish, you may do good to them. But you will not always have Me.
8 She has done what she could. She has come beforehand to anoint My body for burial.
9 Truly I say to you, wherever this gospel will be preached throughout the whole world, what she has done will also be spoken of as a memorial to her.”
10 Then Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Him to them.
