John 12:5-7

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

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

⁶ Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and having the purse, carried the things that were put therein.

⁷ Jesus therefore said: Let her alone, that she may keep it against the day of my burial.
