"Widow's mite" = Đồng tiền trinh của một quả phụ -> Lòng thảo của người nghèo, của ít lòng nhiều.
Ví dụ
With his widow's mite, he has been able to stock the libraries at the senior high school and basic schools with the right books which have improved the level of literacy (sự biết viết, biết đọc) and education in the Ekumfi District.
There are a number of biblical (thuộc Kinh Thánh) stories that consider such religious visual or visible prayers, including the infamous “widow’s mite” that Jesus observed as the offering was presented during a temple service (Luke 21:1-3). Centuries earlier, a Prophet hoped in faith, “It may be that God will look upon my misery and restore to me the covenant (giao ước) blessing instead of the curse (lời nguyền rủa)” (II Samuel 16:12).
By any measure, our MP has failed. He has not done what he promised to do; he has not done what we expected him to do, and he has no excuses. There is still time for us to find someone else who can represent us better than he is doing if we are to retain the seat for the NPP and regain the trust of the entire constituency in the party. Honourable Joe Mensah has to go and if he is concerned about the “investment” that he is yet to recoup (bù lại), as we have heard he is concerned about, some of us will be ready to contribute our widow’s mite to top up the ex-gratia (vì lòng hảo tâm) that he will receive at the end of his term.
