3 And He said, “Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all of them;
3 And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:
3 He said, “Truly I say to you, this poor widow has put in [proportionally] more than all of them;
4 because all the others contributed to the offering out of their surplus, but she, in her poverty, dropped in everything she had to live on."
4 for they all out of their (c)surplus put into the (d)offering; but she out of her poverty put in all (e)that she had (C)to live on.”
4 For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
4 For all these people have put in gifts out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on.”

8 And He said, “See to it that you are not misled; for many will come in My name, saying, ‘(F)I am He,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ (G)Do not go after them.
