Mark 14:1-15

CLV(i) 1 Now it was the Passover and the unleavened bread after two days. And the chief priests and the scribes sought how, laying hold of Him by guile, they should be killing Him." 2 For they said, "Not in the festival, lest at some time there will be a tumult of the people." 3 And at His being in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, at His lying down, a woman came, having an alabaster vase of veritable nard attar, costly. And crushing the alabaster vase, she pours it down on His head." 4 Now some were resenting this to themselves and saying, "For what has this destruction of the attar occurred? 5 For this attar could have been disposed of for over three hundred denarii, and given to the poor.And they muttered against her." 6 Yet Jesus said, "Leave her! Why are you affording her weariness? For it is an ideal work she works in Me." 7 For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you may be wanting, you can always do well to them, yet Me you have not always." 8 What she had she makes use of. She gets beforehand to anoint My body with attar for burial. 9 Now verily I am saying to you, Wheresoever this evangel may be heralded in the whole world, that also which she does shall be spoken of for a memorial of her." 10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, came away to the chief priests that he may be giving Him up to them." 11 Now those who hear him rejoice, and promise to give him silver. And he sought how he may be opportunely giving Him up." 12 And on the first day of unleavened bread, when they sacrificed the passover, His disciples are saying to Him, "Where dost Thou want us to come away that we should be making ready, that Thou mayest eat the passover? 13 And He is dispatching two of His disciples and is saying to them, "Go into the city, and a man will be meeting you, bearing a jar of water. Follow him." 14 And wheresoever he may be entering, say to the householder that 'The Teacher is saying, "Where is My caravansary, where I may be eating the passover with My disciples?'" 15 And he will be showing you a large upper room, ready with places spread, and there make ready for us."
