And He sat down opposite the treasury, and began observing how the people were putting [fn]money into the treasury; and many rich people were putting in large sums.
(Mark 12:41 NASB)
A poor widow came and put in two [fn]small copper coins, which amount to a cent.
(Mark 12:42 NASB)
Calling His disciples to Him, He said to them, “Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the contributors to the treasury;
(Mark 12:43 NASB)
or they all put in out of their [fn]surplus, but she, out of her poverty, put in all she owned, [fn]all she had to live on.”
(Mark 12:44 NASB)
A certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared the Lord. And the creditor is coming to take my two sons to be his slaves.”(2 Kings 4:1 NKJV)
So Elisha said to her, “What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?” And she said, “Your maidservant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil.”(2 Kings 4:2 NKJV)
Then he said, “Go, borrow vessels from everywhere, from all your neighbors—empty vessels; do not gather just a few.(2 Kings 4:3 NKJV)
“And when you have come in, you shall shut the door behind you and your sons; then pour it into all those vessels, and set aside the full ones.”
(2 Kings 4:4 NKJV)
So she went from him and shut the door behind her and her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured it out.(2 Kings 4:5 NKJV)
Now it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, “Bring me another vessel.” And he said to her, “There is not another vessel.” So the oil ceased.(2 Kings 4:6 NKJV)
Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, “Go, sell the oil **and pay your debt; and you and **your sons live on the rest.”(2 Kings 4:7 NKJV)
