Mark 14:3-5

31While He was in 2Bethany at the home of Simon the leper, and reclining at the table, there came a woman with an alabaster vial of very 3costly perfume of pure 4nard; and she broke the vial and poured it over His head.

4But some were indignantly remarking to one another, “Why has this perfume been wasted?

5For this perfume might have been sold for over three hundred 5denarii, and the money given to the poor.” And they were scolding her.
