Seeker Overlay ON

* After two days was the feast of the passover , and of unleavened bread : and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft , and put him to death . * But they said , Not on the feast day , lest there be an uproar of the people . * And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper , as he sat at meat , there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious ; and she brake the box , and poured it on his head . * And there were some that had indignation within themselves , and said , Why was this waste of the ointment made ? * For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence , and have been given to the poor . And they murmured against her . * And Jesus said , Let her alone ; why trouble ye her ? she hath wrought a good work on me . * For ye have the poor with you always , and whensoever ye will ye may do them good : but me ye have not always . * She hath done what she could : she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying . * Verily I say unto you , Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world , this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her . * And Judas Iscariot , one of the twelve , went unto the chief priests , to betray him unto them . * And when they heard it , they were glad , and promised to give him money . And he sought how he might conveniently betray him .
