Matthew 26:7-13

71a womanG1135 cameG4334 to Him with an alabasterG211 vialG211 of veryG927 costlyG927 perfumeG3464, and she pouredG2708 it on His headG2776 as He reclinedG345 at the table. 8But the disciplesG3101 were indignantG23 when they sawG3708 this, and saidG3004, “WhyG1519G5101 thisG3778 wasteG684? 9For thisG3778 perfume mightG1410 have been soldG4097 for a highG4183 priceG4183 and the money givenG1325 to the poorG4434.” 10But JesusG2424, awareG1097 of this, saidG3004 to them, “WhyG5101 do you botherG2873G3930 the womanG1135? For she has doneG2038 a goodG2570 deedG2041 to Me. 11For you alwaysG3842 haveG2192 2the poorG4434 with you; but you do not alwaysG3842 haveG2192 Me. 12For when she pouredG906 thisG3778 perfumeG3464 on My bodyG4983, she didG4160 it 3to prepareG1779 Me for burialG1779. 13TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, 4whereverG3699G1437 thisG3778 gospelG2098 is preachedG2784 in the wholeG3650 worldG2889, whatG3739 thisG3778 womanG3778 has doneG4160 will alsoG2532 be spokenG2980 of in memoryG3422 of her.”
