6 Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
7 a woman came to him having an alabaster jar of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he sat at the table.
8 But when his disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, "Why this waste?
9 For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor."
10 But Jesus, knowing this, said to them, "Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a good work for me.
11 For you always have the poor with you; but you don`t always have me.
12 For in that she poured this ointment on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial.
