Matthew 26:10–18
10However, knowing this, Jesus said to them,“Why do you trouble the woman? She has done a good work for me.↗
11For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.↗
12For in pouring this ointment on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial.↗
13Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of as a memorial of her.”↗
14Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests↗
15and said, “What are you willing to give me if I deliver him to you?” So they weighed out for him thirty pieces of silver.↗
16From that time he sought opportunity to betray him.↗
17Now on the first day of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying to him, “Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?”↗
18He said,“Go into the city to a certain person, and tell him, ‘The Teacher says, “My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.”’”↗
