John 12:1-9

  1. Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom He had raised from the dead.

  2. There they made Him a supper; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with Him.

  3. Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil.

  4. Then one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who would betray Him, said,

  5. "Why was this fragrant oil not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?"

  6. This he said, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the money box; and he used to take what was put in it.

  7. But Jesus said, "Let her alone; she has kept this for the day of My burial.

  8. "For the poor you have with you always, but Me you do not have always."

  9. Now a great many of the Jews knew that He was there; and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might also see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.
