The Widow's Offering

⁴¹^(A)And he sat down opposite ^(B)the treasury and watched the people ^(C)putting money into the offering box. Many rich people put in large sums. ⁴²And a poor widow came and put in two ^(D)small copper coins, which make a penny.^[a] ⁴³And he called his disciples to him and said to them, “Truly, I say to you, ^(E)this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box. ⁴⁴For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her ^(F)poverty has put in everything she had, all ^(G)she had to live on.”
