John 12:1-5 American Standard Version (ASV)

2. So they made him a supper there: and Martha served; but Lazarus was one of them that sat at meat with him.

3. Mary therefore took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.

4. But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, that should betray him, saith,

5. Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred shillings, and given to the poor?
