Ngokunjalo nabesifazane mabagqoke izingubo ezifaneleyo, bazihlobise ngokuhlonipha nokuqonda , kungabi ngezinwele ezalukiweyo , nangegolide, nangamaparele, nangezambatho ezinemali eningi,

UMariya kwakunguye owagcoba iNkosi ngamafutha , wesula izinyawo zayo ngezinwele zakhe, omnewabo uLazaru wayegula.

UMariya wayesethatha ilitra lamafutha enadi lodwa elinenani elikhulu , wagcoba izinyawo zikaJesu, wesula izinyawo zakhe ngezinwele zakhe ; indlu yagcwala iphunga lamafutha.

wema emuva ngasezinyaweni zakhe ekhala , waqala ukumatisa izinyawo zakhe ngezinyembezi , wazesula ngezinwele zekhanda lakhe , wazanga izinyawo zakhe, wazigcoba ngamafutha.

Ephendukela kowesifazane wathi kuSimoni : Uyambona lo wesifazane na ? Ngingene endlini yakho , awunginikanga amanzi ezinyawo , kepha yena uzimatisile izinyawo zami ngezinyembezi, wazesula ngezinwele zakhe.
