Mark 12:29-42 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

29. And Jesus answered him, The first commandment of all is, Hear, Israel: the Lord our God is one Lord;

30. and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thine understanding, and with all thy strength. This is the first commandment.

31. And a second like it is this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is not another commandment greater than these.

32. And the scribe said to him, Right, teacher; thou hast spoken according to the truth. For he is one, and there is none other besides him;

33. and to love him with all the heart, and with all the intelligence, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbour as one's self, is more than all the burnt-offerings and sacrifices.

34. And Jesus, seeing that he had answered intelligently, said to him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no one dared question him any more.

35. And Jesus answering said as he was teaching in the temple, How do the scribes say that the Christ is son of David?

36. for David himself said speaking in the Holy Spirit, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit on my right hand until I put thine enemies as footstool of thy feet.

37. David himself therefore calls him Lord, and whence is he his son? And the mass of the people heard him gladly.

38. And he said to them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, who like to walk about in long robes, and salutations in the marketplaces,

39. and first seats in the synagogues, and first places at suppers;

40. who devour the houses of widows, and as a pretext make long prayers. These shall receive a severer judgment.

41. And Jesus, having sat down opposite the treasury, saw how the crowd was casting money into the treasury; and many rich cast in much.

42. And a poor widow came and cast in two mites, which is a farthing.
