1 Then Iesus, sixe dayes before the Passouer, came to Bethanie, where Lazarus was, which had bene dead, whom hee raised from the dead.
2 There they made him a supper, and Martha serued: but Lazarus was one of them þt sate at the table with him.
3 Then tooke Mary a pound of ointment, of Spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Iesus, & wiped his feet with her haire: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
4 Then saith one of his disciples, Iudas Iscariot, Simons sonne, which should betray him,
5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and giuen to the poore?
6 This he said, not that he cared for the poore: but because hee was a thiefe, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.
7 Then said Iesus, Let her alone, against the day of my burying hath she kept this.
8 For the poore alwayes yee haue with you: but me ye haue not alwayes.
