Mark 14:4-30
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 14
4But there were some indignantly remarking to one another, 'Why has this perfume been wasted? 5For this perfume could have been sold for over three hundred denarii, and the money given to the poor.' And they were scolding her. 6But Jesus said, 'Leave her alone! Why are you bothering her? She has done a good deed for Me. 7For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want, you can do good to them; but you do not always have Me. 8She has done what she could; she has anointed My body beforehand for the burial. 9Truly I say to you, wherever the gospel is preached in the entire world, what this woman has done will also be told in memory of her.'
10Then Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went off to the chief priests in order to betray Him to them.
11They were delighted when they heard this, and promised to give him money. And he began seeking how to betray Him at an opportune time.
12On the first day of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb was being sacrificed, His disciples *said to Him, 'Where do You want us to go and prepare for You to eat the Passover?'
13And He *sent two of His disciples and *said to them, 'Go into the city, and a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you; follow him;
14and wherever he enters, say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says, 'Where is My guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?'?’
15And he himself will show you a large upstairs room furnished and ready; prepare for us there.'
16The disciples left and came to the city, and found everything just as He had told them; and they prepared the Passover.
17When it was evening He *came with the twelve.
18And as they were reclining at the table and eating, Jesus said, 'Truly I say to you that one of you will betray Me— one who is eating with Me.'
19They began to be grieved and to say to Him one by one, 'Surely not I?'
20But He said to them, 'It is one of the twelve, the one who dips bread with Me in the bowl.
21For the Son of Man is going away just as it is written about Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born.'
22While they were eating, He took some bread, and after a blessing He broke it, and gave it to them, and said, 'Take it; this is My body.'
23And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, and they all drank from it.
24And He said to them, 'This is My blood of the covenant, which is being poured out for many.
25Truly I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine again, until that day when I drink it, new, in the kingdom of God.'
27And Jesus *said to them, 'You will all fall away, because it is written: ‘I WILL STRIKE THE SHEPHERD, AND THE SHEEP WILL BE SCATTERED.’
28But after I am raised, I will go ahead of you to Galilee.'
29But Peter said to Him, 'Even if they all fall away, yet I will not!'
30And Jesus *said to him, 'Truly I say to you, that this very night, before a rooster crows twice, you yourself will deny Me three times.'
King James Version
Chapter 14
4And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made? 5For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her. 6And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her she hath wrought a good work on me. 7For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always. 8She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying. 9Verily 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.
10And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them.
11And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.
12And 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?
13And 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.
14And 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?
15And he will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared: there make ready for us.
16And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
17And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.
18And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.
19And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I?
20And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish.
22And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.
23And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it.
24And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.
25Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.
26And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
27And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.
28But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.
29But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I.
30And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.

4But some were expressing indignation to one another: "Why has this perfume been wasted? 5For this perfume might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor." And they began to scold her.
6Jesus replied, "Leave her alone. Why are you bothering her? She has done a noble thing for me.
7You always have the poor with you, and you can do what is good for them whenever you want, but you do not always have me.
8She has done what she could; she has anointed my body in advance for burial.
9Truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her."
10Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.
11And when they heard this, they were glad and promised to give him money. So he started looking for a good opportunity to betray him.
13So he sent two of his disciples and told them, "Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him.
14Wherever he enters, tell the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says, "Where is my guest room where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?"’
15He will show you a large room upstairs, furnished and ready. Make the preparations for us there."
16So the disciples went out, entered the city, and found it just as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
17When evening came, he arrived with the Twelve.
18While they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me—one who is eating with me."
20He said to them, "It is one of the Twelve—the one who is dipping bread in the bowl with me.
21For the Son of Man will go just as it is written about him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for him if he had not been born."

24He said to them, "This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.
25Truly I tell you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God."
New Living Translation
Chapter 14
4Some of those at the table were indignant. 'Why waste such expensive perfume?' they asked. 5It could have been sold for a year’s wages and the money given to the poor!' So they scolded her harshly.
6But Jesus replied, 'Leave her alone. Why criticize her for doing such a good thing to me?
7You will always have the poor among you, and you can help them whenever you want to. But you will not always have me.
8She has done what she could and has anointed my body for burial ahead of time.
9I tell you the truth, wherever the Good News is preached throughout the world, this woman’s deed will be remembered and discussed.'
10Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve disciples, went to the leading priests to arrange to betray Jesus to them.
11They were delighted when they heard why he had come, and they promised to give him money. So he began looking for an opportunity to betray Jesus.
13So Jesus sent two of them into Jerusalem with these instructions: 'As you go into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him.
14At the house he enters, say to the owner, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples?’
15He will take you upstairs to a large room that is already set up. That is where you should prepare our meal.'
16So the two disciples went into the city and found everything just as Jesus had said, and they prepared the Passover meal there.
17In the evening Jesus arrived with the Twelve.
18As they were at the table eating, Jesus said, 'I tell you the truth, one of you eating with me here will betray me.'
20He replied, 'It is one of you twelve who is eating from this bowl with me.
21For the Son of Man must die, as the Scriptures declared long ago. But how terrible it will be for the one who betrays him. It would be far better for that man if he had never been born!'
23And he took a cup of wine and gave thanks to God for it. He gave it to them, and they all drank from it.
24And he said to them, 'This is my blood, which confirms the covenant between God and his people. It is poured out as a sacrifice for many.
25I tell you the truth, I will not drink wine again until the day I drink it new in the Kingdom of God.'

4There were some who said to themselves indignantly, "Why was the ointment wasted like that? 5For this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor." And they scolded her. 6But Jesus said, "Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. 7For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want, you can do good for them. But you will not always have me. 8She has done what she could; she has anointed my body beforehand for burial. 9And truly, I say to you, wherever the gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will be told in memory of her."

4But there were some who were indignant among themselves, and said, “Why was this fragrant oil wasted? 5For it might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor.” And they criticized her sharply.
6But Jesus said, “Let her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for Me.
7For you have the poor with you always, and whenever you wish you may do them good; but Me you do not have always.
