Mark:14:1 @
Now after two days was [
the feast of ]
the passover and the unleavened bread :
and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him with subtlety ,
and kill him :
asv @
Mark:14:2 @
for they said ,
Not during the feast ,
lest haply there shall be a tumult of the people .
asv @
Mark:14:3 @
And while he was in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper ,
as he sat at meat ,
there came a woman having an alabaster cruse of ointment of pure nard very costly ; [
and ]
she brake the cruse ,
and poured it over his head .
asv @
Mark:14:4 @
But there were some that had indignation among themselves , [
saying ],
To what purpose hath this waste of the ointment been made ?
asv @
Mark:14:5 @
For this ointment might have been sold for above three hundred shillings ,
and given to the poor .
And they murmured against her .
asv @
Mark:14:6 @
But Jesus said ,
Let her alone ;
why trouble ye her ?
she hath wrought a good work on me .
asv @
Mark:14:7 @
For ye have the poor always with you ,
and whensoever ye will ye can do them good :
but me ye have not always .
asv @
Mark:14:8 @
She hath done what she could ;
she hath anointed my body beforehand for the burying .
asv @
Mark:14:9 @
And verily I say unto you ,
Wheresoever the gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world ,
that also which this woman hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her .

Mark:14:10 @
And Judas Iscariot ,
he that was one of the twelve ,
went away unto the chief priests ,
that he might deliver him unto them .
asv @
Mark:14:11 @
And they ,
when they heard it ,
were glad ,
and promised to give him money .
And he sought how he might conveniently deliver him [
unto them ].
