John 12:6-8

Young's Literal Translation

⁶ and he said this, not because he was caring for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and what things were put in he was carrying.

⁷ Jesus, therefore, said, `Suffer her; for the day of my embalming she hath kept it,

⁸ for the poor ye have always with yourselves, and me ye have not always.'
