5 But they said, 'Not during the feast, lest a riot occur among the people.'
6 Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
7 a woman came to him having an alabaster jar of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he sat at the table.
8 But when his disciples saw this, they were indignant, saying, 'Why this waste?
9 For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.'
