Mark 14:3-5
31While He was in 2Bethany at the home of Simon 3the Leper, He was reclining at the table, and a woman came with an alabaster vial of very 4expensive perfume of pure 5nard. She broke the vial and poured the perfume over His head.
4But there were some indignantly remarking to one another, “Why has this perfume been wasted?
5For this perfume could have been sold for over three hundred 6denarii, and the money given to the poor.” And they were scolding her.
