Luke 21:1-4

The Widow's Gift

1(A)And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury.

2And He saw a poor widow putting in (B)two small copper coins.

3And He said, "Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all of them;

4for they all out of their surplus put into the offering; but she out of her poverty put in all that she had (C)to live on."
