The chief priests and the scribes were looking for a way to arrest Jesus by stealth and kill him ġ4:2 for they said, "Not during the festival, or there may be a riot among the people."ġ4:3 While he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at the table, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very costly ointment of nard, and she broke open the jar and poured the ointment on his head.ġ4:4 But some were there who said to one another in anger, "Why was the ointment wasted in this way?ġ4:5 For this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii, and the money given to the poor." And they scolded her.ġ4:6 But Jesus said, "Let her alone why do you trouble her? She has performed a good service for me.ġ4:7 For you always have the poor with you, and you can show kindness to them whenever you wish but you will not always have me.ġ4:8 She has done what she could she has anointed my body beforehand for its burial.ġ4:9 Truly I tell you, wherever the good news is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will be told in remembrance of her."ġ4:10 Then Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went to the chief priests in order to betray him to them.ġ4:11 When they heard it, they were greatly pleased, and promised to give him money. Mark 14:1-15:47ġ4:1 It was two days before the Passover and the festival of Unleavened Bread. And being found in human form,Ģ:8 he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death- even death on a cross.Ģ:9 Therefore God also highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name,Ģ:10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,Ģ:11 and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:5-11Ģ:5 Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus,Ģ:6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited,Ģ:7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, being born in human likeness. Who are my adversaries? Let them confront me.ĥ0:9a It is the Lord GOD who helps me who will declare me guilty? Psalm 31:9-16ģ1:9 Be gracious to me, O LORD, for I am in distress my eye wastes away from grief, my soul and body also.ģ1:10 For my life is spent with sorrow, and my years with sighing my strength fails because of my misery, and my bones waste away.ģ1:11 I am the scorn of all my adversaries, a horror to my neighbors, an object of dread to my acquaintances those who see me in the street flee from me.ģ1:12 I have passed out of mind like one who is dead I have become like a broken vessel.ģ1:13 For I hear the whispering of many- terror all around!- as they scheme together against me, as they plot to take my life.ģ1:14 But I trust in you, O LORD I say, "You are my God."ģ1:15 My times are in your hand deliver me from the hand of my enemies and persecutors.ģ1:16 Let your face shine upon your servant save me in your steadfast love. Who will contend with me? Let us stand up together. Morning by morning he wakens- wakens my ear to listen as those who are taught.ĥ0:5 The Lord GOD has opened my ear, and I was not rebellious, I did not turn backward.ĥ0:6 I gave my back to those who struck me, and my cheeks to those who pulled out the beard I did not hide my face from insult and spitting.ĥ0:7 The Lord GOD helps me therefore I have not been disgraced therefore I have set my face like flint, and I know that I shall not be put to shame ĥ0:8 he who vindicates me is near.
50:4 The Lord GOD has given me the tongue of a teacher, that I may know how to sustain the weary with a word.
