John 12:3-8

3Then Mary took a pound of perfume, pure and expensive nard, anointed Jesus’s feet, and wiped his feet with her hair. So the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

4Then one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot (who was about to betray him), said,

5“Why wasn’t this perfume sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”

6He didn’t say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief. He was in charge of the money-bag and would steal part of what was put in it.

7Jesus answered, “Leave her alone; she has kept it for the day of my burial.

8For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me.”
