MSB(i)
2 So they hosted a dinner for Jesus there. Martha served, and Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with Him.
3 Then Mary took about a pint of expensive perfume, made of pure nard, and she anointed Jesus’ feet and wiped them with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
4 But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, son of Simon, who was going to betray Him, asked,
5 “Why wasn’t this perfume sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?”
6 Judas did not say this because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money bag, he used to take from what was put into it.
7 “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “She has kept this perfume in preparation for the day of My burial.
8 The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have Me.”
