【Mark 14:1-9】

1 It was now two days before the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened (UNLAD-ven-d) Bread. And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to arrest him by stealth (s-DAL-th) and kill him,

2 for they said, “Not during the feast, lest there be an uproar (UP-raw) from the people.”

3 And while he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he was reclining at table, a woman came with an alabaster flask (fast-k) of ointment of pure nard, very costly, and she broke the flask and poured it over his head.

4 There were some who said to themselves indignantly, (IN-dig-land-ly) “Why was the ointment wasted like that?

5 For this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii (DIN-呢-re）and given to the poor.” And they scolded her.

6 But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a beautiful thing to me.

7 For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want, you can do good for them. But you will not always have me.

8 She has done what she could; she has anointed (AN-noy-ed) my body beforehand for burial.

9 And truly, I say to you, wherever the gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will be told in memory of her.
