3 And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:
3 "Truly I tell you," he said, "this poor widow has put in more than all the others.
3 And he said, "Truly, I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them.
3 He said, "The plain truth is that this widow has given by far the largest offering today.
3 So He said, "Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all;
3 "I tell you the truth," Jesus said, "this poor widow has given more than all the rest of them.

From the offering of this poor widow, learn that what we rightly give for the relief of the poor, and the support of God's worship, is given unto God; and our Saviour sees with pleasure whatever we have in our hearts to give for the relief of his members, or for his service. Blessed Lord! the poorest of thy servants have two mites, they have a soul and a body; persuade and enable us to offer both unto thee; how happy shall we be in thine accepting of them!
