* Then Jesus six days before the passover came (5627 ) to Bethany , where Lazarus was (5713 ) which had been dead (5761 ), whom he raised (5656 ) from the dead . * There they made (5656 ) him a supper ; and Martha served (5707 ): but Lazarus was (5713 ) one of them that sat at the table (5740 ) with him . * Then took (5631 ) Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard , very costly , and anointed (5656 ) the feet of Jesus , and wiped (5656 ) his feet with her hair : and the house was filled (5681 ) with the odour of the ointment . * Then saith (5719 ) one of his disciples , Judas Iscariot , Simons son , which should (5723 ) betray (5721 ) him , * Why was not this ointment sold (5681 ) for three hundred pence , and given (5681 ) to the poor ? * This he said (5627 ), not that he cared (5707 ) for the poor ; but because he was (5713 ) a thief , and had (5707 ) the bag , and bare (5707 ) what was put therein (5746 ). * Then said (5627 ) Jesus , Let her alone (5628 ): against the day of my burying hath she kept (5758 ) this . * For the poor always ye have (5719 ) with you ; but me ye have (5719 ) not always . * Much people of the Jews therefore knew (5627 ) that he was (5748 ) there : and they came (5627 ) not for Jesus sake only , but that they might see (5632 ) Lazarus also , whom he had raised (5656 ) from the dead . * But the chief priests consulted (5662 ) that they might put Lazarus also to death (5725 ); * Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away (5707 ), and believed (5707 ) on Jesus .
