1
And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury,
2
and He saw also a certain poor widow putting in two mites.
3
So He said, "Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all;
4
for all these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had."
5
Then, as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and donations, He said,
6
"These things which you see--the days will come in which not one stone shall be left upon another that shall not be thrown down."
7
So they asked Him, saying, "Teacher, but when will these things be? And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place?"
8
And He said: "Take heed that you not be deceived. For many will come in My name, saying, 'I am He,' and, 'The time has drawn near.' Therefore do not go after them.
9
But when you hear of wars and commotions, do not be terrified; for these things must come to pass first, but the end will not come immediately."
