5 For this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and been given to the poor.' And they murmured against her.
6 But Jesus said: 'Permit her. What is the reason that you trouble her? She has done a good deed for me.
7 For the poor, you have with you always. And whenever you wish, you are able to do good to them. But you do not have me always.
8 But she has done what she could. She has arrived in advance to anoint my body for burial.
9 Amen I say to you, wherever this Gospel shall be preached throughout the entire world, the things she has done also shall be told, in memory of her.'
