St Luke 21:1-8 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

1. AND looking on, he saw the rich men cast their gifts into the treasury.

2. And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in two brass mites.

3. And he said: Verily I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:

4. For all these have of their abundance cast into the offerings of God: but she of her want, hath cast in all the living that she had.

5. And some saying of the temple, that it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said:

6. These things which you see, the days will come in which there shall not be left a stone upon a stone that shall not be thrown down.

7. And they asked him, saying: Master, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when they shall begin to come to pass?

8. Who said: Take heed you be not seduced; for many will come in my name, saying, I am he; and the time is at hand: go ye not therefore after them.
