Matthew 26:7 CPDV

⁵  But they said, 'Not on the feast day, lest perhaps there may be a tumult among the people.'

⁶  And when Jesus was in Bethania, in the house of Simon the leper,

⁷  a woman drew near to him, holding an alabaster box of precious ointment, and she poured it over his head while he was reclining at table.

⁸  But the disciples, seeing this, were indignant, saying: 'What is the purpose of this waste?

⁹  For this could have been sold for a great deal, so as to be given to the poor.'
