Mark 12:38-44

38He also said in his teaching, “Beware of the scribes, who want to go around in long robes and who want greetings in the marketplaces,

39the best seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at banquets.

40They devour widows’ houses and say long prayers just for show. These will receive harsher judgment.”

41Sitting across from the temple treasury, he watched how the crowd dropped money into the treasury. Many rich people were putting in large sums.

42Then a poor widow came and dropped in two tiny coins worth very little.

43Summoning his disciples, he said to them, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others.

44For they all gave out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had — all she had to live on.”
