Gospel: Mark 12:38-44

Douay-Rheims: Mark 12:38-44

³⁸And he said to them in his doctrine: Beware of the scribes, who love to walk in long robes, and to be saluted in the marketplace, ³⁹And to sit in the first chairs, in the synagogues, and to have the highest places at suppers: ⁴⁰Who devour the houses of widows under the pretence of long prayer: these shall receive greater judgment. ⁴¹And Jesus sitting over against the treasury, beheld how the people cast money into the treasury, and many that were rich cast in much. ⁴²And there came a certain poor widow, and she cast in two mites, which make a farthing. ⁴³And calling his disciples together, he saith to them: Amen I say to you, this poor widow hath cast in more than all they who have cast into the treasury. ⁴⁴For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want cast in all she had, even her whole living.

The same passages in the Douay-Rheims Bible (Challoner revision), the translation we use on this site. The words read at Mass come from the Lectionary for Mass and differ. Where a reading begins or ends partway through a verse, the whole verse is shown. For the official text, open the readings on the USCCB site.
