(1) Mark 12:41-44 = Luke 21:1-4
/12:41/ He sat down opposite the treasury, and watched the crowd putting money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums. /12:42/ A poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which are worth a penny. /12:43/ Then he called his disciples and said to them, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the treasury. /12:44/ For all of them have contributed out of their abundance; but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on."
/21:1/ He looked up and saw rich people putting their gifts into the treasury; /21:2/ he also saw a poor widow put in two small copper coins. /21:3/ He said, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them; /21:4/ for all of them have contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on."
