Etheridge(i)
3 And when he was at Bethania in the house of Shemun the leper, as he reclined, there came a woman who had with her a vase of the balsam of the choicest nard of great prices; and she opened it, and poured it upon the head of Jeshu.
4 But there were men of the disciples who were displeased among themselves, and said, Why make destruction of this balsam?
5 for it could have been sold for more than three hundred dinoreen, and given to the poor. And they were angry with her.
6 But he, Jeshu, said, Let her alone; why do you trouble her? A good work hath she wrought upon me.
7 For in all time you have the poor with you, and, when you will, you can do them good; but I am not at all time with you.
8 (With) that which was hers she hath done this, and beforehand as for the funeral she hath anointed my body.
