Mark 14:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ And when he was in Bethania, in the house of Simon the leper, and was at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of precious spikenard: and breaking the alabaster box, she poured it out upon his head.

⁴ Now there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said: Why was this waste of the ointment made?

⁵ For this ointment might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
