Mark 14:3-6

Mark 14:3-6 CEV

Jesus was eating in Bethany at the home of Simon, who once had leprosy, when a woman came in with a very expensive bottle of sweet-smelling perfume. After breaking it open, she poured the perfume on Jesus' head. This made some of the guests angry, and they complained, “Why such a waste? We could have sold this perfume for more than 300 silver coins and given the money to the poor!” So they started saying cruel things to the woman. But Jesus said: Leave her alone! Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing for me.
