Mark 14:6-17 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

6. But Jesus said: "Permit her. What is the reason that you trouble her? She has done a good deed for me.

7. For the poor, you have with you always. And whenever you wish, you are able to do good to them. But you do not have me always.

8. But she has done what she could. She has arrived in advance to anoint my body for burial.

9. Amen I say to you, wherever this Gospel shall be preached throughout the entire world, the things she has done also shall be told, in memory of her."

10. And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went away, to the leaders of the priests, in order to betray him to them.

11. And they, upon hearing it, were gladdened. And they promised him that they would give him money. And he sought an opportune means by which he might betray him.

12. And on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they immolate the Passover, the disciples said to him, "Where do you want us to go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?"

13. And he sent two of his disciples, and he said to them: "Go into the city. And you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water; follow him.

14. And wherever he will have entered, say to the owner of the house, 'The Teacher says: Where is my dining room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?'

15. And he will show you a large cenacle, fully furnished. And there, you shall prepare it for us."

16. And his disciples departed and went into the city. And they found it just as he had told them. And they prepared the Passover.

17. Then, when evening came, he arrived with the twelve.
