Mark 12:41-44
411And He sat down opposite 2the treasury, and began observing how the people were 3putting 4money into the treasury; and many rich people were putting in large sums.
42A poor widow came and put in two 5small copper coins, which amount to a 6cent.
43Calling His disciples to Him, He said to them, “Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all 7the contributors to the treasury;
44for they all put in out of their 8surplus, but she, out of her poverty, put in all she owned, 9all she had 10to live on.”
