Matthew 26:8 ASV

⁶  Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

⁷  there came unto him a woman having an alabaster cruse of exceeding precious ointment, and she poured it upon his head, as he sat at meat.

⁸  But when the disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?

⁹  For this 'ointment' might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.

¹⁰  But Jesus perceiving it said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.
