3 ΒΆ And being in Bethanie, in the house of Simon the leper, as he sate at meat, there came a woman, hauing an Alabaster boxe of oyntment of spikenard very precious, and shee brake the boxe, and powred it on his head.
4 And there were some that had indignation within themselues, and said, Why was this waste of the oyntment made?
5 For it might haue bene solde for more then three hundred pence, and haue bene giuen to the poore: and they murmured against her.
6 And Iesus said, Let her alone, why trouble you her? Shee hath wrought a good worke on me.
7 For ye haue the poore with you alwayes, and whensoeuer ye will yee may doe them good: but me ye haue not alwayes.
8 She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.
9 Uerely I say vnto you, Wheresoeuer this Gospel shalbe preached thorowout the whole world, this also that she hath done, shall be spoken of for a memoriall of her.
