3
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.
4
And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?
5
For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
6
And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.
7
For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.
8
She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.
9
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.
10
And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them.
11
And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.
43
And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.
44
And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely.
45
And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and saith, Master, master; and kissed him.
46
And they laid their hands on him, and took him.
47
And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
48
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and with staves to take me?
49
I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled.
