Mark Chapter 14 Verse 7‹For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.›

[For the Son of man is] ‹as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.›

‹Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:›

‹Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.›

‹And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.›

After two days was [the feast of] the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put [him] to death.

But they said, Not on the feast [day], lest there be an uproar of the people.

And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured [it] on his head.

And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?

For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.

And Jesus said, ‹Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.›

‹She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.›

‹Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world,› [this] ‹also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.›

And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them.

And when they heard [it], they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.

And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?

And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, ‹Go ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him.›

‹And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the house, The Master saith, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?›

‹And he will shew you a large upper room furnished› [and] ‹prepared: there make ready for us.›

And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.
