Mark 14:7

The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them whenever you want. But you will not always have Me.
In context
5 It could have been sold for over three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor.” And they scolded her.
6 But Jesus said, “Leave her alone; why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful deed to Me.
7 The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them whenever you want. But you will not always have Me.
8 She has done what she could to anoint My body in advance of My burial.
9 And truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.”
