⁷¹ And some of the heads of families gave into the store for the work twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand, two hundred pounds of silver.

¹⁹ Who has no respect for rulers, and who gives no more attention to those who have wealth than to the poor, for they are all the work of his hands.

¹ And looking up, he saw the men of wealth putting their offerings in the money-box.

² And he saw a certain poor widow putting in a farthing.

³ And he said, Truly I say to you, This poor widow has given more than all of them:

⁴ For they gave out of their wealth, having more than enough for themselves: but she, even out of her need, has put in all her living.

¹² For if there is a ready mind, a man will have God's approval in the measure of what he has, and not of what he has not.
