Mark 14

5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
For it might have been sold for above three hundred pence, and given to the poor. And they inveighed against her.
6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble all of you her? she has wrought a good work on me.
But Jesus said, Let her alone, why do ye give her uneasiness?
7 For all of you have the poor with you always, and whenever all of you will all of you may do them good: but me all of you have not always.
She has done a kind office to me. For ye have the poor always with you, and may do them good, whenever ye will; but me ye have not always.
8 She has done what she could: she has come beforehand to anoint my body to the burying.
She has done what she could: she has embalmed my body beforehand against the burial.

Verily I tell you, wheresoever this gospel is preached, through all the world, what she hath done shall also be told for a memorial of her.

68 But he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what you say. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew.
but he denied it, saying, I do not know Him, nor do I understand what thou meanest. And he went out into the porch, and the cock crew.

And the maid seeing him again said to them that stood by, This is one of them: and he denied it again.
70 And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely you are one of them: for you are a Galilaean, and your speech agrees thereto.
And a little after, they that stood by, said to Peter again, Thou art certainly one of them: for thou art a Galilean, and thy speech is like theirs.
71 But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom all of you speak.
But he began to curse and swear saying, I do not know this man of whom ye speak: And the cock crowed a second time.
