John 12:3-7

Mary then took a pound of very expensive perfume of pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped His feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

But Judas Iscariot, one of His disciples, the one who intended to betray Him, *said,

“Why was this perfume not sold for three hundred denarii and the proceeds given to poor people?”

Now he said this, not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief, and as he kept the money box, he used to steal from what was put into it.

Therefore Jesus said, “Leave her alone, so that she may keep it for the day of My burial.
