3 Tubah 1741
Mark 14 : 3 - 11
| 3 | And being in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, as He sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster flask of very costly oil of spikenard. Then she broke the flask and poured it on His head. |
| 4 | But there were some who were indignant among themselves, and said, "Why was this fragrant oil wasted? |
| 5 | For it might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor." And they criticized her sharply. |
| 6 | But Jesus said, "Let her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for Me. |
| 7 | For you have the poor with you always, and whenever you wish you may do them good; but Me you do not have always. |
| 8 | She has done what she could. She has come beforehand to anoint My body for burial. |
| 9 | Assuredly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her." |
| 10 | Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Him to them. |
| 11 | And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. So he sought how he might conveniently betray Him. |
