Jesus Anointed at Bethany(A)
12 Six days before the Passover,(B) Jesus came to Bethany,(C) where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. 2 Here a dinner was given in Jesus’ honor. Martha served,(D) while Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with him. 3 Then Mary took about a pint[a] of pure nard, an expensive perfume;(E) she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair.(F) And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
4 But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him,(G) objected, 5 “Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages.[b]” 6 He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag,(H) he used to help himself to what was put into it.
7 “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial.(I) 8 You will always have the poor among you,[c](J) but you will not always have me.”

María unge a Jesús
12 (A)Entonces Jesús, seis días antes de la Pascua(B), vino a Betania donde estaba Lázaro[a], al que Jesús había resucitado de entre los muertos(C). 2 Y[b] le hicieron una cena allí, y Marta(D) servía; pero Lázaro era uno de los que estaban[c] a la mesa con Él.
3 Entonces María, tomando unos 300 gramos de perfume de nardo puro(E) que costaba mucho, ungió los pies de Jesús, y se los secó[d] con los cabellos(F), y la casa se llenó con la fragancia del perfume. 4 Y Judas Iscariote, uno de Sus discípulos, el que lo iba a entregar[e](G), dijo*: 5 «¿Por qué no se vendió este perfume por 300 denarios[f] y se dio a los pobres?».
6 Pero dijo esto, no porque se preocupara por los pobres, sino porque era un ladrón, y como tenía la bolsa del dinero(H), sustraía de lo que se echaba en ella(I). 7 Entonces Jesús dijo: «Déjala, para que lo guarde para el día de Mi sepultura[g](J). 8 Porque a los pobres siempre los tendrán[h]con ustedes; pero a Mí no siempre me tendrán[i](K)».

John 12:1-8
King James Version
12 Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
2 There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.
3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
4 Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him,
5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?
6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.
7 Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.
8 For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.
