40:026:003 Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
40:026:004 And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.
40:026:005 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among the people.
40:026:006 Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
40:026:007 There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat.
40:026:008 But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?
40:026:009 For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
40:026:010 When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.
40:026:011 For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.
40:026:012 For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.
