Amplified Bible

Luke 21:1-6 Amplified Bible (AMP)

1. LOOKING UP, [Jesus] saw the rich people putting their gifts into the treasury.

2. And He saw also a poor widow putting in two mites (copper coins).

3. And He said, Truly I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them;

4. For they all gave out of their abundance (their surplus); but she has contributed out of her lack and her want, putting in all that she had on which to live.

5. And as some were saying of the temple that it was decorated with handsome (shapely and magnificent) stones and consecrated offerings [laid up to be kept], He said,

6. As for all this that you [thoughtfully] look at, the time will come when there shall not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.
