Mark 14:6 ASV

⁴  But there were some that had indignation among themselves, `saying', To what purpose hath this waste of the ointment been made?

⁵  For this ointment might have been sold for above three hundred shillings, and given to the poor. And they murmured against her.

⁶  But Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.

⁷  For ye have the poor always with you, and whensoever ye will ye can do them good: but me ye have not always.

⁸  She hath done what she could; she hath anointed my body beforehand for the burying.
