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.

Maria Îi toarnă mir pe picioare
12 Cu şase zile înainte de Paşte, Isus a venit în Betania, unde(A) era Lazăr, care fusese mort şi pe care îl înviase din morţi. 2 Acolo, I-au(B) pregătit o cină. Marta slujea, iar Lazăr era unul din cei ce şedeau la masă cu El. 3 Maria(C) a luat un litru cu mir de nard curat, de mare preţ, a uns picioarele lui Isus şi I-a şters picioarele cu părul ei şi s-a umplut casa de mirosul mirului. 4 Unul din ucenicii Săi, Iuda Iscarioteanul, fiul lui Simon, care avea să-L vândă, a zis: 5 „De ce nu s-a vândut acest mir cu trei sute de lei şi să se fi dat săracilor?” 6 Zicea lucrul acesta nu pentru că purta grijă de săraci, ci pentru că era un hoţ şi, ca unul care ţinea(D) punga, lua el ce se punea în ea. 7 Dar Isus a zis: „Lasă-o în pace, căci ea l-a păstrat pentru ziua îngropării Mele. 8 Pe(E) săraci îi aveţi totdeauna cu voi, dar pe Mine nu Mă aveţi totdeauna.”
