Mark 12:41-44 - A Poor Widow's Offering

⁴¹ And he sat down opposite the contribution box [and] was observing how the crowd was putting coins into the contribution box. And many rich people were putting in many [coins]. ⁴² And one poor widow came [and] put in two small copper coins (that is, a penny). ⁴³ And summoning his disciples, he said to them, "Truly I say to you that this poor widow put in more than all those who put [offerings] into the contribution box. ⁴⁴ For they all {contributed} out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in everything she had, her whole means of subsistence."

¹ And he looked up [and] saw the rich putting their gifts into the contribution box, ² and he saw a certain poor widow putting in there two small copper coins. ³ And he said, "Truly I say to you that this poor widow put in more than all [of them]. ⁴ For these all put [gifts] into the offering out of their abundance, but this [woman] out of her poverty put in all the means of subsistence that she had."
