car c'est de leur superflu que tous ceux-là ont mis des offrandes dans le tronc, mais elle a mis de son nécessaire, tout ce qu'elle avait pour vivre.
Perciocchè tutti costoro hanno gettato nelle offerte di Dio di ciò che soprabbonda loro; ma costei vi ha gettato della sua inopia, tutta la sostanza ch’ella avea
Porque todos aqueles deitaram para as ofertas de Deus do que lhes sobeja; mas esta, da sua pobreza, deitou todo o sustento que tinha.
因為眾人都是拿有餘的捐獻,但這寡婦,雖然自己不足,卻把一生所有的都投進去了。」
