Matthew 26:8 CPDV

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.'

¹⁰  But Jesus, knowing this, said to them: 'Why are you bothering this woman? For she has done a good deed to me.
