New Living Translation
Matthew 26:7-12
7While he was eating, a woman came in with a beautiful alabaster jar of expensive perfume and poured it over his head.
8The disciples were indignant when they saw this. “What a waste!” they said.
9“It could have been sold for a high price and the money given to the poor.”
10But Jesus, aware of this, replied, “Why criticize this woman for doing such a good thing to me?
11You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have me.
12She has poured this perfume on me to prepare my body for burial.
