Mark 14:3-8

3And being in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, as He sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster flask of very costly oil of spikenard. Then she broke the flask and poured it on His head.

4But there were some who were indignant among themselves, and said, “Why was this fragrant oil wasted?

5For it might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor.” And they criticized her sharply.

6But Jesus said, “Let her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for Me.

7For you have the poor with you always, and whenever you wish you may do them good; but Me you do not have always.

8She has done what she could. She has come beforehand to anoint My body for burial.
