John 12:6

ειπεν δε τουτο ουχ οτι περι των πτωχων εμελεν αυτω αλλ αλλα οτι κλεπτης ην και το γλωσσοκομον ειχεν και τα βαλλομενα εβασταζεν
eipen de toyto oych oti peri tōn ptōchōn emelen aytō all alla oti kleptēs ēn kai to glōssokomon eichen kai ta ballomena ebastazen
King James Version (KJV)

This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.

Modern English

Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.
