Mark 14 : 3 - 6

Mark 14
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.
