6. But Jesus said, “Leave her alone! Why are you bothering her? She has done a fine and beautiful thing for me.
7. You will always have poor people with you, and any time you want to, you can help them. But you will not always have me.
8. She did what she could; she poured perfume on my body to prepare it ahead of time for burial.
9. Now, I assure you that wherever the gospel is preached all over the world, what she has done will be told in memory of her.”
