A woman pours ointment on him at Bethany

베다니 문둥이 시몬의 집에서 한 여자가 향유를 부음

Mark 14:3–9: while Jesus is at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, sitting at the table, a woman comes with an alabaster jar of very costly ointment of pure nard, breaks the jar and pours it over his head. Some are indignant, saying it might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor, and they grumble against her. Jesus tells them to leave her alone: she has done a good work for him; they always have the poor with them, but they will not always have him. She has anointed his body beforehand for the burying, and wherever this Good News is preached throughout the whole world, what she has done will be spoken of for a memorial of her.

³While he was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster jar of ointment of pure nard—very costly. She broke the jar and poured it over his head.
⁴But there were some who were indignant among themselves, saying, “Why has this ointment been wasted?
⁵For this might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor.” So they grumbled against her.
⁶But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for me.
⁷For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want to, you can do them good; but you will not always have me.
⁸She has done what she could. She has anointed my body beforehand for the burying.
⁹Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News may be preached throughout the whole world, that which this woman has done will also be spoken of for a memorial of her.”
