John 12:3-8

³Mary therefore took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.

⁴But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, that should betray him, saith,

⁵Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred shillings, and given to the poor?

⁶Now this he said, not because he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and having the bag took away what was put therein.

⁷Jesus therefore said, Suffer her to keep it against the day of my burying.

⁸For the poor ye have always with you; but me ye have not always.
