46 Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;

1 And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting in their gifts into the treasury;
2 And saw also, a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.
3 And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all.
4 For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God; but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
5 And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones, and gifts, he said,
6 These things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be lift one stone upon another, which shall not be thrown down.
7 And the disciples asked him, saying, Master, when shall these things be? And what sign wilt thou show, when these things shall come to pass?
8 And he said, The time draweth near, and therefore take heed that ye be not deceived; for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; go ye not therefore after them.
