1 Aufblickend aber sah er die Reichen ihre Gaben in den Schatzkasten legen.2 Er sah aber auch eine gewisse arme Witwe zwei Scherflein daselbst einlegen.3 Und er sprach: In Wahrheit sage ich euch, daß diese arme Witwe mehr eingelegt hat als alle.4 Denn alle diese haben von ihrem Überfluß eingelegt zu den Gaben Gottes ; diese aber hat von ihrem Mangel den ganzen Lebensunterhalt, den sie hatte, eingelegt.
Mark 12
41 And he sat down opposite the treasury and watched the people putting money into the offering box. Many rich people put in large sums.42 And a poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which make a penny.43 And he called his disciples to him and said to them, “Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box.44 For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on.”
