And when Jesus was in Bethania, in the house of Simon the leper, 7There came to him a woman having an alabaster box of precious ointment and poured it on his head as he was at table. 8And the disciples seeing it had indignation, saying: To what purpose is this waste? 9For this might have been sold for much and given to the poor. 10And Jesus knowing it, said to them: Why do you trouble this woman? For she hath wrought a good work upon me. 11For the poor you have always with you: but me you have not always. 12For she in pouring this ointment on my body hath done it for my burial. 13Amen I say to you, wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, that also which she hath done shall be told for a memory of her.
