John 12:6 WEB

⁴  Then Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,

⁵  'Why wasn't this ointment sold for three hundred denarii,{300 denarii was about a year's wages for an agricultural laborer.} and given to the poor?'

⁶  Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.

⁷  But Jesus said, 'Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.

⁸  For you always have the poor with you, but you don't always have me.'
