Mark 14:3-5

International Standard Version

A Woman Anoints Jesus^(A)

³ While Jesus^[a] was in Bethany sitting at the table in the home of Simon the leper, a woman arrived with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume made from pure nard. She broke open the jar and poured the perfume on his head. ⁴ Irritated, some who were there asked one another, “Why was the perfume wasted like this? ⁵ This perfume could have been sold for more than 300 denarii^[b] and the money^[c] given to the destitute.” So they got extremely angry with her.
