ગુજરાતીમાર્ક ૧૪:૭
કેમ કે ગરીબો સદા તમારી સાથે છે. જયારે તમે ચાહો ત્યારે તેઓનું ભલું કરી શકો છો; પણ હું સદા તમારી સાથે નથી.
हिन्दीमरकुस १४:७
गरीब तुम्हारे साथ सदा रहते हैं और तुम जब चाहो तब उनसे भलाई कर सकते हो; पर मैं तुम्हारे साथ सदा न रहूँगा। (व्यव. 15:11)

In context

5For this might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor.” So they grumbled against her.

6But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for me.

7For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want to, you can do them good; but you will not always have me.

8She has done what she could. She has anointed my body beforehand for the burying.

9Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News may be preached throughout the whole world, that which this woman has done will also be spoken of for a memorial of her.”
