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

⁴¹ And Jesus having sat down over-against the treasury, was beholding how the multitude do put brass into the treasury, and many rich were putting in much, ⁴² and having come, a poor widow did put in two mites, which are a farthing. ⁴³ And having called near his disciples, he saith to them, 'Verily I say to you, that this poor widow hath put in more than all those putting into the treasury; ⁴⁴ for all, out of their abundance, put in, but she, out of her want, all that she had put in -- all her living.'

¹ And having looked up, he saw those who did cast their gifts to the treasury -- rich men, ² and he saw also a certain poor widow casting there two mites, ³ and he said, 'Truly I say to you, that this poor widow did cast in more than all; ⁴ for all these out of their superabundance did cast into the gifts to God, but this one out of her want, all the living that she had, did cast in.'
