1 G1510.7.6 And were G1161 G1448 approaching G1473 to him G3956 all G3588 the G5057 tax collectors G2532 and G3588 the G268 sinners G191 to hear G1473 him.

2 G2532 And G1234 [⁶complained G3588 ¹the G* ²Pharisees G2532 ³and G3588 ⁴the G1122 ⁵scribes], G3004 saying G3754 that, G3778 This one G268 [²sinners G4327 ¹favorably receives], G2532 and G4906 eats with G1473 them.

3 G2036 And he spoke G1161 G4314 to G1473 them G3588 G3850 this parable, G3778 G3004 saying,

4 G5100 What G444 man G1537 of G1473 you, G2192 having G1540 a hundred G4263 sheep, G2532 and G622 having lost G1520 one G1537 of G1473 them, G3756 leaves not G2641 G3588 the G1767.3 ninety G1767 nine G1722 in G3588 the G2048 wilderness, G2532 and G4198 goes G1909 after G3588 the one G622 being lost, G2193 until G2147 he should find G1473 it?

5 G2532 And G2147 having found, G2007 he places it G1909 upon G3588 G5606 his own shoulders, G1438 G5463 rejoicing.

6 G2532 And G2064 having come G1519 unto G3588 the G3624 house, G4779 he calls together G3588 the G5384 friends G2532 and G3588 the G1069 neighbors, G3004 saying G1473 to them, G4796 Rejoice along with G1473 me! G3754 for G2147 I found G3588 G4263 my sheep, G1473 G3588 the one G622 being lost.

7 G3004 I say G1473 to you G3754 that G3779 thus G5479 [²joy G1510.8.3 ¹there will be] G1722 in G3588 the G3772 heaven G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 repenting, G2228 than G1909 over G1767.3 ninety G1767 nine G1342 just G3748 ones who G3756 [²no G5532 ³need G2192 ¹have] G3341 for repentance.

8 G2228 Or G5100 what G1135 woman G1406 [³drachmas G2192 ¹having G1176 ²ten], G1437 if G622 she should lose G1406 [²drachma G1520 ¹one], G3780 does not G680 light G3088 a lamp, G2532 and G4563 sweeps G3588 the G3614 house, G2532 and G2212 seeks G1960 carefully G2193 until G3748 whenever G2147 she should find it ?

9 G2532 And G2147 having found, G4779 she calls together G3588 the G5384 friends G2532 and G3588 G1069 neighbors, G3004 saying, G4796 Rejoice along with G1473 me! G3754 for G2147 I found G3588 the G1406 drachma G3739 which G622 I lost.

10 G3779 Thus G3004 I say G1473 to you, G5479 joy G1096 takes place G1799 before G3588 the G32 angels G3588 G2316 of God G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 repenting.

11 G2036 And he said, G1161 G444 A certain man G5100 G2192 had G1417 two G5207 sons.

12 G2532 And G2036 [⁴said G3588 ¹the G3501 ²younger G1473 ³of them] G3588 to the G3962 father, G3962 O father, G1325 give G1473 to me G3588 the G1911 assigned G3313 part G3588 of the G3776 wealth. G2532 And G1244 he divided G1473 to them G3588 the G979 livelihood.

13 G2532 And G3326 after G3756 not G4183 many G2250 days G4863 [⁴having gathered G537 ⁵all G3588 ¹the G3501 ²younger G5207 ³son], G589 traveled abroad G1519 unto G5561 a place G3117 afar, G2532 and G1563 there G1287 dispersed G3588 G3776 his wealth G1473 G2198 living G811 carnally.

14 G1159 [³spending G1161 ¹And G1473 ²he] G3956 all, G1096 there became G3042 [²famine G2478 ¹a strong] G2596 in G3588 G5561 that place; G1565 G2532 and G1473 he G756 began G5302 to fail.

15 G2532 And G4198 having gone, G2853 he cleaved G1520 to one G3588 of the G4177 citizens G3588 G5561 of that place; G1565 G2532 and G3992 he sent him forth G1473 G1519 into G3588 G68 his field G1473 G1006 to graze G5519 swine.

16 G2532 And G1937 he was desiring G1072 to fill G3588 G2836 his belly G1473 G575 from G3588 the G2769 husks G3739 which G2068 [³were eating G3588 ¹the G5519 ²swine], G2532 and G3762 no one G1325 gave G1473 to him.

17 G1519 [³to G1438 ⁴himself G1161 ¹And G2064 ²having come], G2036 he said, G4214 How many G3407 hirelings G3588 G3962 of my father G1473 G4052 abound G740 of bread loaves, G1473 but I G1161 G3042 with hunger G622 perish?

18 G450 Having risen up, G4198 I will go G4314 to G3588 G3962 my father, G1473 G2532 and G2046 I will say G1473 to him, G3962 O father, G264 I sinned G1519 unto G3588 the G3772 heaven, G2532 and G1799 before G1473 you;

19 G2532 and G3765 no longer G1510.2.1 am I G514 worthy G2564 to be called G5207 your son; G1473 G4160 make G1473 me G5613 as G1520 one G3588 G3407 of your hirelings! G1473

20 G2532 And G450 having risen up, G2064 he went G4314 to G3588 G3962 his father. G1473 G2089 And still G1161 G1473 he G3112 [²far at a distance G566 ¹being], G1492 [²beheld G1473 ³him G3588 G3962 ¹his father], G1473 G2532 and G4697 was moved with compassion, G2532 and G5143 running G1968 fell G1909 upon G3588 G5137 his neck, G1473 G2532 and G2705 kissed G1473 him.

21 G2036 [⁴said G1161 ¹And G1473 ⁵to him G3588 ²the G5207 ³son], G3962 O father, G264 I sinned G1519 unto G3588 the G3772 heaven, G2532 and G1799 before G1473 you, G2532 and G3765 no longer G1510.2.1 am I G514 worthy G2564 to be called G5207 your son. G1473

22 G2036 [⁴said G1161 ¹But G3588 ²the G3962 ³father] G4314 to G3588 G1401 his servants, G1473 G1627 Bring forth G3588 the G4749 [²apparel G3588 G4413 ¹foremost], G2532 and G1746 put it on G1473 him! G2532 And G1325 give G1146 a ring G1519 for G3588 G5495 his hand, G1473 G2532 and G5266 sandals G1519 for G3588 the G4228 feet!

23 G2532 And G5342 having brought G3588 the G3448 [²calf G3588 G4618 ¹well fed], G2380 sacrifice it! G2532 and G2068 eating G2165 we should be merry;

24 G3754 for G3778 this G3588 G5207 my son G1473 G3498 was dead, G1510.7.3 G2532 and G326 is revived; G2532 and G622 he was lost, G1510.7.3 G2532 and G2147 was found. G2532 And G756 they began G2165 to be merry.

25 G1510.7.3 [⁵was G1161 ¹And G3588 G5207 ⁴son G1473 ²his G3588 G4245 ³elder] G1722 in G68 the field. G2532 And G5613 as G2064 [²coming G1448 ¹he approached] G3588 to the G3614 house, G191 he heard G4858 the harmony of sound G2532 and G5525 dancers.

26 G2532 And G4341 having called on G1520 one G3588 of the G3816 servants, G4441 he inquired about G5100 what G1510.4 these things may be. G3778

27 G3588 And G1161 G2036 he said G1473 to him G3754 that, G3588 G80 Your brother G1473 G2240 is come, G2532 and G2380 [²sacrificed G3588 G3962 ¹your father] G1473 G3588 the G3448 [²calf G3588 G4618 ¹well fed]; G3754 for G5198 being in health G1473 he recovered him. G618

28 G3710 And he was provoked to anger, G1161 G2532 and G3756 did not G2309 want G1525 to enter. G3588 G3767 Then G3962 his father G1473 G1831 having come forth G3870 comforted G1473 him.

29 G3588 And G1161 G611 responding G2036 he said G3588 to the G3962 father, G2400 Behold, G5118 so many G2094 years G1398 I served G1473 you, G2532 and G3763 at no time G1785 [²your command G1473 G3928 ¹passed by]; G2532 and G1473 to me G3763 at no time G1325 did you give G2056 a kid, G2443 that G3326 with G3588 G5384 my friends G1473 G2165 I should be glad.

30 G3753 And when G1161 G3588 G5207 [²your son G1473 G3778 ¹this], G3588 the one G2719 devouring G1473 your G3588 G979 livelihood G3326 with G4204 harlots, G2064 came, G2380 you sacrificed G1473 for him G3588 the G3448 [²calf G3588 G4618 ¹well fed].

31 G3588 And G1161 G2036 he said G1473 to him, G5043 Child, G1473 you G3842 at all times G3326 [²with me G1473 G1510.2.2 ¹are]; G2532 and G3956 all G3588 the things G1699 of mine G4674 are yours. G1510.2.3

32 G2165 But to be merry G1161 G2532 and G5463 rejoice G1163 is necessary; G3754 for G3588 G80 [²your brother G1473 G3778 ¹this] G3498 was dead, G1510.7.3 G2532 and G326 is revived; G2532 and G622 he was lost, G1510.7.3 G2532 and G2147 is found.

1 G1161 Then G3956 all G3588 the G5057 tax collectors G2532 and G3588 the G268 sinners G2258 [G5713] were G1448 [G5723] approaching G846 to him, G191 [G5721] to hear G846 him.

2 G2532 And G5330 the Pharisees G2532 and G1122 scribes G1234 [G5707] murmured, G3004 [G5723] saying, G3754 G3778 This man G4327 [G5736] receiveth G268 sinners, G2532 and G4906 [G5719] eateth G846 with them.

3 G1161 And G2036 [G5627] he spoke G5026 this G3850 parable G4314 to G846 them, G3004 [G5723] saying,

11 G1161 And G2036 [G5627] he said, G5100 { A certain G444 man G2192 [G5707] had G1417 two G5207 sons:}

14 G1161 { And G846 when he G1159 [G5660] had spent G3956 all, G1096 [G5633] there arose G2478 a strong G3042 famine G2596 in G1565 that G5561 region; G2532 and G846 he G756 [G5662] began G5302 [G5745] to be in want.}

15 G2532 { And G4198 [G5679] he went G2853 [G5681] and joined himself G1520 to G4177 a citizen G1565 of that G5561 region; G2532 and G3992 [G5656] he sent G846 him G1519 into G846 his G68 fields G1006 [G5721] to feed G5519 swine.}

16 G2532 { And G1937 [G5707] he was longing G1072 [G5658] to fill G846 his G2836 belly G575 from G3588 the G2769 carob pods G3739 that G3588 the G5519 swine G2068 [G5707] were eating: G2532 and G3762 no man G1325 [G5707] gave G846 to him.}

DouayRheims⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now the publicans and sinners drew near unto him to hear him. ² And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying: This man receiveth sinners and eateth with them. ³ And he spoke to them this parable, saying: ⁴ What man of you that hath an hundred sheep, and if he shall lose one of them, doth he not leave the ninety-nine in the desert and go after that which was lost, until he find it? ⁵ And when he hath found it, lay it upon his shoulders, rejoicing? ⁶ And coming home, call together his friends and neighbours, saying to them: Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost? ⁷ I say to you that even so there shall be joy in heaven upon one sinner that doth penance, more than upon ninety-nine just who need not penance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten groats, if she lose one groat, doth not light a candle and sweep the house and seek diligently until she find it? ⁹ And when she hath found it, call together her friends and neighbours, saying: Rejoice with me, because I have found the groat which I had lost. ¹⁰ So I say to you, there shall be joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance. ¹¹ And he said: A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to his father: Father, give me the portion of substance that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his substance. ¹³ And not many days after, the younger son, gathering all together, went abroad into a far country: and there wasted his substance, living riotously. ¹⁴ And after he had spent all, there came a mighty famine in that country: and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went and cleaved to one of the citizens of that country. And he sent him into his farm to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him. ¹⁷ And returning to himself, he said: How many hired servants in my father's house abound with bread, and I here perish with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise and will go to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee. ¹⁹ I am not worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. ²⁰ And rising up, he came to his father. And when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion and running to him fell upon his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said to him: Father: I have sinned against heaven and before thee I am not now worthy to be called thy son. ²² And the father said to his servants: Bring forth quickly the first robe and put it on him: and put a ring on his hand and shoes on his feet. ²³ And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it: and let us eat and make merry: ²⁴ Because this my son was dead and is come to life again, was lost and is found.

His father therefore coming out began to entreat him. ²⁹ And he answering, said to his father: Behold, for so many years do I serve thee and I have never transgressed thy commandment: and yet thou hast never given me a kid to make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But as soon as this thy son is come, who hath devoured his substance with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. ³¹ But he said to him: Son, thou art always with me; and all I have is thine. ³² But it was fit that we should make merry and be glad: for this thy brother was dead and is come to life again; he was lost, and is found.

2 G2532 And G5330 the Pharisees G2532 and G1122 scribes G1234 murmured [G5707] G3004 , saying [G5723] G3754 , This man G3778 G4327 receiveth [G5736] G268 sinners G2532 , and G4906 eateth [G5719] G846 with them.

3 G1161 And G2036 he spake [G5627] G5026 this G3850 parable G4314 unto G846 them G3004 , saying [G5723] ,

4 G5101 What G444 man G1537 of G5216 you G2192 , having [G5723] G1540 an hundred G4263 sheep G2532 , if G622 he lose [G5660] G1520 one G1537 of G846 them G2641 , doth G3756 not G2641 leave [G5719] G1768 the ninety and nine G1722 in G2048 the wilderness G2532 , and G4198 go [G5736] G1909 after G622 that which is lost [G5756] G2193 , until G2147 he find [G5632] G846 it?

5 G2532 And G2147 when he hath found [G5631] G2007 it, he layeth [G5719] G1909 it on G1438 his G5606 shoulders G5463 , rejoicing [G5723] .

6 G2532 And G2064 when he cometh [G5631] G1519 G3624 home G4779 , he calleth together [G5719] G5384 his friends G2532 and G1069 neighbours G3004 , saying [G5723] G846 unto them G4796 , Rejoice [G5645] G3427 with me G3754 ; for G2147 I have found [G5627] G3450 my G4263 sheep G3588 which G622 was lost [G5756] .

7 G3004 I say [G5719] G5213 unto you G3754 , that G3779 likewise G5479 joy G2071 shall be [G5704] G1722 in G3772 heaven G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 that repenteth [G5723] G2228 , more than G1909 over G1768 ninety and nine G1342 just persons G3748 , which G2192 need [G5719] G5532 G3756 no G3341 repentance.

8 G2228 Either G5101 what G1135 woman G2192 having [G5723] G1176 ten G1406 pieces of silver G1437 , if G622 she lose [G5661] G3391 one G1406 piece G3780 , doth not G681 light [G5719] G3088 a candle G2532 , and G4563 sweep [G5719] G3614 the house G2532 , and G2212 seek [G5719] G1960 diligently G2193 till G3755 G2147 she find [G5632] it ?

10 G3779 Likewise G3004 , I say [G5719] G5213 unto you G1096 , there is [G5736] G5479 joy G1799 in the presence G32 of the angels G2316 of God G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 that repenteth [G5723] .

11 G1161 And G2036 he said [G5627] G5100 , A certain G444 man G2192 had [G5707] G1417 two G5207 sons:

12 G2532 And G3501 the younger G846 of them G2036 said [G5627] G3962 to his father G3962 , Father G1325 , give [G5628] G3427 me G3313 the portion G3776 of goods G1911 that falleth [G5723] G2532 to me . And G1244 he divided [G5627] G846 unto them G979 his living.

13 G2532 And G3756 not G4183 many G2250 days G3326 after G3501 the younger G5207 son G4863 gathered G537 all G4863 together [G5631] G589 , and took his journey [G5656] G1519 into G3117 a far G5561 country G2532 , and G1563 there G1287 wasted [G5656] G846 his G3776 substance G811 with riotous G2198 living [G5723] .

14 G1161 And G846 when he G1159 had spent [G5660] G3956 all G1096 , there arose [G5633] G2478 a mighty G3042 famine G2596 in G1565 that G5561 land G2532 ; and G846 he G756 began [G5662] G5302 to be in want [G5745] .

15 G2532 And G4198 he went [G5679] G2853 and joined himself [G5681] G1520 to G4177 a citizen G1565 of that G5561 country G2532 ; and G3992 he sent [G5656] G846 him G1519 into G846 his G68 fields G1006 to feed [G5721] G5519 swine.

16 G2532 And G1937 he would fain [G5707] G1072 have filled [G5658] G846 his G2836 belly G575 with G2769 the husks G3739 that G5519 the swine G2068 did eat [G5707] G2532 : and G3762 no man G1325 gave [G5707] G846 unto him.

17 G1161 And G2064 when he came [G5631] G1519 to G1438 himself G2036 , he said [G5627] G4214 , How many G3407 hired servants G3450 of my G3962 father's G740 have bread G4052 enough and to spare [G5719] G1161 , and G1473 I G622 perish [G5731] G3042 with hunger!

18 G450 I will arise [G5631] G4198 and go [G5695] G4314 to G3450 my G3962 father G2532 , and G2046 will say [G5692] G846 unto him G3962 , Father G264 , I have sinned [G5627] G1519 against G3772 heaven G2532 , and G1799 before G4675 thee,

19 G2532 And G1510 am [G5748] G3765 no more G514 worthy G2564 to be called [G5683] G4675 thy G5207 son G4160 : make [G5657] G3165 me G5613 as G1520 one G4675 of thy G3407 hired servants.

20 G2532 And G450 he arose [G5631] G2064 , and came [G5627] G4314 to G1438 his G3962 father G1161 . But G846 when he G2089 was yet G3112 a great way G568 off [G5723] G846 , his G3962 father G1492 saw [G5627] G846 him G2532 , and G4697 had compassion [G5675] G2532 , and G5143 ran [G5631] G1968 , and fell [G5627] G1909 on G846 his G5137 neck G2532 , and G2705 kissed [G5656] G846 him.

21 G1161 And G5207 the son G2036 said [G5627] G846 unto him G3962 , Father G264 , I have sinned [G5627] G1519 against G3772 heaven G2532 , and G1799 in G4675 thy G1799 sight G2532 , and G1510 am [G5748] G3765 no more G514 worthy G2564 to be called [G5683] G4675 thy G5207 son.

22 G1161 But G3962 the father G2036 said [G5627] G4314 to G846 his G1401 servants G1627 , Bring forth [G5657] G4413 the best G4749 robe G2532 , and G1746 put it on [G5657] G846 him G2532 ; and G1325 put [G5628] G1146 a ring G1519 on G846 his G5495 hand G2532 , and G5266 shoes G1519 on G4228 his feet:

23 G2532 And G5342 bring hither [G5660] G4618 the fatted G3448 calf G2380 , and kill [G5657] G2532 it; and G5315 let us eat [G5631] G2165 , and be merry [G5686] :

24 G3754 For G3778 this G3450 my G5207 son G2258 was [G5713] G3498 dead G2532 , and G326 is alive again [G5656] G2532 ; G2258 he was [G5713] G622 lost [G5756] G2532 , and G2147 is found [G5681] G2532 . And G756 they began [G5662] G2165 to be merry [G5745] .

25 G1161 Now G846 his G4245 elder G5207 son G2258 was [G5713] G1722 in G68 the field G2532 : and G5613 as G2064 he came [G5740] G1448 and drew nigh [G5656] G3614 to the house G191 , he heard [G5656] G4858 musick G2532 and G5525 dancing.

26 G2532 And G4341 he called [G5666] G1520 one G3816 of the servants G4441 , and asked [G5711] G5101 what G5023 these things G1498 meant [G5751] .

27 G1161 And G2036 he said [G5627] G846 unto him G3754 , G4675 Thy G80 brother G2240 is come [G5719] G2532 ; and G4675 thy G3962 father G2380 hath killed [G5656] G4618 the fatted G3448 calf G3754 , because G618 he hath received [G5627] G846 him G5198 safe and sound [G5723] .

28 G1161 And G3710 he was angry [G5681] G2532 , and G2309 would [G5707] G3756 not G1525 go in [G5629] G3767 : therefore G1831 came G846 his G3962 father G1831 out [G5631] G3870 , and intreated [G5707] G846 him.

29 G1161 And G611 he answering [G5679] G2036 said [G5627] G3962 to his father G2400 , Lo [G5628] G5118 , these many G2094 years G1398 do I serve [G5719] G4671 thee G3763 , neither G3928 transgressed I [G5627] G3763 at any time G4675 thy G1785 commandment G2532 : and G2532 yet G1325 thou G3763 never G1325 gavest [G5656] G1698 me G2056 a kid G2443 , that G2165 I might make merry [G5686] G3326 with G3450 my G5384 friends:

30 G1161 But G3753 as soon as G3778 this G4675 thy G5207 son G2064 was come [G5627] G3588 , which G2719 hath devoured [G5631] G4675 thy G979 living G3326 with G4204 harlots G2380 , thou hast killed [G5656] G846 for him G4618 the fatted G3448 calf.

31 G1161 And G2036 he said [G5627] G846 unto him G5043 , Son G4771 , thou G1488 art [G5748] G3842 ever G3326 with G1700 me G2532 , and G3956 all G1699 that I have G2076 is [G5748] G4674 thine.

32 G1161 It was G1163 meet [G5713] G2165 that we should make merry [G5683] G2532 , and G5463 be glad [G5646] G3754 : for G3778 this G4675 thy G80 brother G2258 was [G5713] G3498 dead G2532 , and G326 is alive again [G5656] G2532 ; and G2258 was [G5713] G622 lost [G5756] G2532 , and G2147 is found [G5681] .

Mace⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Then many of the Publicans, and people of a bad reputation gather'd about Jesus to hear him; ² at which the Pharisees and Scribes murmured, saying, this man gives access to men of bad character, and eats with them. ³ but he propos'd to them this parable. ⁴ who of you that has an hundred sheep, will not, upon losing one, leave the ninety nine in the desart, to go after that which is lost, till he finds it? ⁵ and when he hath found it, joyfully lay it upon his shoulders? ⁶ and when he comes home, call his friends and neighbours together, and say to them, rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep, that was lost? ⁷ I tell you, that there shall likewise be greater joy in heaven for one sinner that repents, than for ninety nine just persons, that need no repentance. ⁸ or if a woman, that has ten pieces of money, should lose one of them, will she not light a lamp, sweep the house, and carefully search, till she find it? ⁹ and when 'tis found, will she not call her friends aud neighbours together, and say, rejoice with me, for I have found the piece, I had lost? ¹⁰ even so, I assure you, the angels in heaven rejoice, when any one sinner becomes a penitent. ¹¹ Again he said: a certain man had two sons; ¹² the younger of which said to his father, father, give me that portion of the estate which falls to my share. accordingly he divided his estate among them. ¹³ a little while after the younger son turn'd all he had into money, and travell'd into a foreign country, where he squander'd away his fortune in luxurious living. ¹⁴ when he had spent all, there happen'd to be a severe famine in that country; ¹⁵ and he was reduced to want, which forc'd him to make his application to one of the inhabitants there, who sent him to his farm to look after his swine. ¹⁶ for he would have been contented to have liv'd upon the carruways, with which they usually fed the swine: but nobody would supply him. ¹⁷ at length coming to himself, how many, said he, does my father keep in pay, who have bread in abundance, whilst I am dying here with hunger? ¹⁸ I will depart, and go to my father, and say to him, father, I have sinned against heaven, and against thee; ¹⁹ I am no longer worthy to be called your son: treat me as one of your hir'd servants. ²⁰ so he departed and went to his father. but while he was yet at a distance, his father saw him, and mov'd with compassion, ran and threw himself upon his neck, and kissed him. ²¹ then the son said to him, father, I have sinned against heaven, and against you, I am no longer worthy to be called your son. ²² but the father said to his servants, bring hither the finest robe, and put it on him: put a ring on his finger, and shoes on his feet. ²³ take the fatted calf, and kill it: let us eat and be merry: ²⁴ for this son of mine was dead, and is come to life: he was lost, and is found again. and then they began their feast. ²⁵ In the mean time his elder son was in the country. at his return, when he came near home, he heard the musick and dancing: ²⁶ and calling one of the servants, he ask'd what was the occasion of it, ²⁷ who reply'd, your brother is return'd, and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him in good health. ²⁸ upon this he was full of resentment, and refused to go in: and when his father came out to persuade him, he replied to his father, ²⁹ how many years have I serv'd you, without having ever disobey'd your orders? and yet you never bestow'd a kid upon me, to make merry with my friends: ³⁰ whereas this son of yours, who has eat up his fortune among a pack of loose creatures, is no sooner come but you must kill the fatted calf for him. ³¹ son, said he to him, you shall continue to be with me, and all that I have shall be thine. ³² but it was necessary to feast and rejoice, because your brother here was dead, and is again alive: he was lost and is now found.

Whiston⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners to hear him. ² And both the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying that, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. ³ And he spake this parable unto them, ⁴ What man of you shall have an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not he leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and goeth away and seeketh that which is lost, until he find it? ⁵ And when he hath found [it,] he layeth [it] on his shoulders, rejoycing. ⁶ But when he cometh home, he calleth together [his] friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoyce with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost. ⁷ But I say unto you, that likewise joy is in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, who need no repentance. ⁸ Either what woman having ten drachmae, if she shall lose [one,] doth not she light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she shall find [it]? ⁹ And when she hath found [it,] she calleth [her] friends and neighbours together, saying, Rejoyce with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost. ¹⁰ Likewise I say unto you, There shall be joy in the presence of the angels of God, over one sinner that repenteth. ¹¹ And he said, A certain man had two sons: ¹² And the younger of them said to [his] father, Father, give me the portion of substance that falleth to me. And he divided unto them [his] living. ¹³ And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living. ¹⁴ And when he had spent all, there arose a great famine in that land; and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went and joyned himself to a citizen of that country;and he sent him into the fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he would fain have satisfied himself with the husks that the swine did eat: and no one gave unto him. ¹⁷ And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my fathers have bread more than enough, and I here perish with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, ¹⁹ I am no longer worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. ²⁰ And he arose, and came to his father. But while he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee,I am no longer worthy to be called thy son: Make me as one of thy hired servants. ²² But the father said to his servants, Bring forth quickly the best robe, and put [it] on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet. ²³ And bring the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat and be merry. ²⁴ For this my son was dead, and is alive again;he [was] lost, and is now found. And they began to be merry. ²⁵ Now his older son was in the field: But as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing. ²⁶ And he called one of the servants, and asked what could this be? ²⁷ And he said, Thy brother is come;and thy father hath killed the fatted calf for him, because he hath received him sound. ²⁸ And he was angry, and would not go in: But his father came out, and began to intreat him. ²⁹ And he answering, said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment, and yet thou at no time gavest me a kid, out of the goats, that I might dine with my friends: ³⁰ But for thy son who hath devoured all he had with harlots, when he came thou hast killed the fatted calf. ³¹ And he said unto him, Thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine; ³² It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again;was lost, and is found.

Wesley⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Then drew near to him all the publicans and sinners, to hear him. ² And the Pharisees and scribes murmured saying, This man receiveth sinners and eateth with them. ³ And he spake a parable to them, saying, ⁴ Who of you, having an hundred sheep, and losing one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, till he find it? ⁵ And having found it, he layeth it on his shoulders rejoicing. ⁶ And coming home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying to them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. ⁷ I say to you, Thus joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, who do not need repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it? ⁹ And having found it, she calleth her friends and neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the piece which I had lost. ¹⁰ Thus, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God, over one sinner that repenteth. ¹¹ And he said, A certain man had two sons. And the younger of them said to his father; ¹² Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. ¹³ And he divided to them his substance. And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, and took a journey into a far country, and there squandered away his substance, living riotously. ¹⁴ And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that country; and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields, to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine ate: and no man gave to him. ¹⁷ And coming to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread enough and to spare, and I am perishing with hunger? ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee: ¹⁹ I am no more worthy to be called thy son; make me as one of thy hired servants. ²⁰ And he arose and came to his father: But while he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and his bowels yearned, and he ran, and fell on his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. ²² But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet. ²³ And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it, and let us eat and be merry. ²⁴ For this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found. ²⁵ And they began to be merry. Now his elder son was in the field. And as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing. ²⁶ And calling one of the servants, he asked what these things meant? ²⁷ And he told him, Thy brother is come, and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him in good health. ²⁸ But he was angry, and would not go in: therefore his father coming out intreated him. ²⁹ And he answering said to his father, Lo these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I thy commandment at any time, yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But as soon as this thy son was come, who hath devoured thy substance with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. ³¹ And he said to him, Son, thou art always with me, and all that I have is thine. ³² But it was meet to make merry and be glad, for this thy brother was dead and is alive again, and was lost and is found.

Worsley⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Then drew near unto Him all the publicans and other notorious sinners, to hear Him. ² And the pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man entertaineth wicked persons, and eateth with them. ³ But He spake to them this parable, ⁴ saying, What man of you that hath an hundred sheep, and loseth one of them, doth not leave the ninety-nine in the field, and go after that which was lost, till he find it? ⁵ And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders rejoicing: ⁶ and coming home, he calleth his friends and neighbors together and saith unto them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost. ⁷ Thus, I tell you, there shall be joy in heaven over one repenting sinner, more than over ninety-nine righteous persons, that have no need of repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and search carefully till she find it? ⁹ and when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and neighbors together; saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the piece which I had lost. ¹⁰ Thus, I tell you, there is joy among the angels of God over one repenting sinner. ¹¹ And He said, a certain man had two sons: and the younger of them said to his father, ¹² Father, give me the portion that falleth to my share. And he divided his substance between them. ¹³ And not many days after the younger son gathered all together and went abroad into a distant country, and there squandered away his substance by living luxuriously. ¹⁴ And when he had spent all, there happen'd a grievous famine in that country, and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went and let himself to one of the people of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he would gladly have filled his belly with the husks which the swine did eat: and no man relieved him. ¹⁷ But coming to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread enough and to spare, and I am perishing with hunger? ¹⁸ I will rise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee, ¹⁹ and am no longer worthy to be called thy son; make me as one of thy hired servants. ²⁰ And he rose and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion; and he ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And his son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee, and am no longer worthy to be called thy son. ²² But the father said to his servants, bring out the best robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: ²³ and bring hither the fatted calf and kill it, and let us eat and be merry: ²⁴ for this my son was dead, and is alive again, and was lost and is found. And they began to be merry. ²⁵ But his elder son was out in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing: ²⁶ and he called one of the servants to him, and asked what these things meant. ²⁷ And he said to him, Thy brother is come, and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and well: but he was angry, and would not go in. ²⁸ Therefore his father came out and desired him. ²⁹ But he answered and said to his father, Behold so many years as I serve thee, nor have I ever transgressed thy command, and yet thou hast never given me a kid, to be merry with my friends: ³⁰ but as soon as this thy son was come, who hath eaten up thy substance with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. ³¹ And he said unto him, Son, thou art always with me, and all that I have is thine. ³² But it was fit we should be merry and rejoice; for this thy brother was dead, and is come to life again, was lost and is found.

Haweis⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ THEN drew nigh unto him all the tax-farmers and the sinners to hear him. ² And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man entertains sinners, and eateth with them. ³ Then spake he unto them this parable, saying, ⁴ What man is there of you, possessing an hundred sheep, though he lose but one of them, will he not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? ⁵ and when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And coming home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Congratulate me; for I have found that sheep of mine which was lost. ⁷ I tell you, that just so will there be joy in heaven over one repentant sinner, more than over ninety-nine righteous persons, who hold not their need of repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten pieces of silver coin, if she lose one of them, doth she not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and make diligent search until she find it? ⁹ And having found it, she calleth her female friends and neighbours together, saying, Congratulate me; for I have found the silver piece I had lost. ¹⁰ Even so, I tell you, there is joy among the angels of God, over one repentant sinner. ¹¹ Then he said, A certain man had two sons: ¹² and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of substance which falls to my share. And he divided with them his fortune. ¹³ And not many days after, the younger son, collecting his all, travelled into a far distant country, and there dissipated his substance in a life of debauchery. ¹⁴ But when he had spent all, there came a terrible famine in that region; and he began to know want. ¹⁵ And he went and connected himself with one of the citizens of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he eagerly longed to fill his belly with the charob berries which the swine did eat: and no person gave him [a morsel]. ¹⁷ Then coming to himself, he said, How many hirelings of my father abound with loaves of bread, and I am pining away with famine! ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, ¹⁹ and I am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hirelings. ²⁰ And he arose and came to his father. But when he was yet at a considerable distance, his father discovered him, and was moved with compassion, and running, fell on his neck, and kissed him again and again. ²¹ Then said the son unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. ²² But the father said to his servants, Bring out the best robe, and clothe him; and put a ring on his hand, and sandals on his feet: ²³ and bring hither the stall-fed steer, and kill it; and let us eat, and be joyous. ²⁴ For this my son was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found. And they began to be joyous. ²⁵ Now his elder brother had been in the field: and when coming home he drew near the house, he heard a concert of music, and the chorus. ²⁶ And calling one of the servants, he inquired what these things meant. ²⁷ And he said, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed for him the stall-fed steer, because he hath received him in health. ²⁸ Then he was in great wrath, and would not enter the doors: therefore his father came out, and entreated him. ²⁹ But he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years I am serving thee, and never have transgressed thy command: yet to me thou hast never once given a kid, that I might make merry with my friends: ³⁰ but no sooner is this son of thine come, who hath devoured thy substance with whores, than thou hast killed for him the stall-fed steer. ³¹ And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all my possessions are thine. ³² But it was right that we should rejoice, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ As the publicans and sinners were all continually resorting to him to hear him, ² when the Pharisees and the Scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners and eateth with them; ³ he then spake this parable to them, saying, ⁴ What man among you having a hundred sheep, doth not, upon losing one of them, leave the ninety nine in the wilderness and go in search of that which is lost until he find it? ⁵ And having found it, doth he not joyfully lay it on his shoulders; ⁶ and upon coming home call together his friends, and neighbours, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I have found the sheep which was lost? ⁷ Thus, I assure you, there will be greater joy in heaven for one reforming sinner, than for ninety nine righteous persons who have no need of reformation. ⁸ Or what woman having ten drachmas doth not, if she lose one of them, light a lamp, and sweep the house, and search diligently until she find it? ⁹ And having found it, doth she not assemble her female friends and neighbours, saying, Rejoice with me, because I have found the drachma which was lost? ¹⁰ Thus, I assure you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God for one reforming sinner. ¹¹ He said also, a certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me that portion of the estate which falleth to my share. So he divided the moveable estate between them. ¹³ And not many days after, the younger son having gathered all together, took a journey to a distant country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living. ¹⁴ And when he had spent all, there came a grievous famine over all that country, and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ So he went and connected himself with one of the citizens of that country who sent him to his farm to feed swine, ¹⁶ and he was fain to fill his belly with the carob pods which the swine were eating, as nobody gave him any thing. ¹⁷ At length, coming to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread enough and to spare, while I am perishing with hunger? ¹⁸ I will rise and go to my father, and say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight, ¹⁹ and am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. ²⁰ Accordingly he arose and went to his father. But he keeping yet at a distance, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. ²¹ Whereupon the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. ²² But the father said to his servants, Bring out the best robe and put it on him; and put a ring on his finger and shoes on his feet. ²³ And bring out the fatted calf and kill it. And let us eat and be joyful; ²⁴ because this my son was dead and is come to life. He was indeed lost and is now found. So they began to be merry. ²⁵ Now his elder son was in the field. And as he was coming home and drew near the house, he heard the musick and dancing. ²⁶ Whereupon calling one of the servants, he enquired what might be the occasion of this. ²⁷ And he said to him, It is because thy brother is come: and thy father hath killed the fatted calf because he hath received him in good health. ²⁸ At this he was angry and would not go in. His father therefore went out and entreated him. ²⁹ But he answering, said to his father, Behold these many years that I have served thee without ever disobeying thy command, thou hast never given me a kid, that I might be merry with my friends: ³⁰ but soon as this son of thine is come, who hath devoured thy substance with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. ³¹ In reply, to which his father said to him, Son, thou art always with me; and all that I have is thine. ³² But we ought to feast and rejoice because this thy brother was dead and is come to life. He was indeed lost and is now found.

Webster⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Then drew near to him all the publicans and sinners to hear him. ² And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. ³ And he spoke this parable to them, saying, ⁴ What man of you having a hundred sheep, if he loseth one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he findeth it? ⁵ And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. ⁷ I say to you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, who need no repentance. ⁸ Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she loseth one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she findeth it? ⁹ And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbors together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost. ¹⁰ Likewise, I say to you, There is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. ¹¹ And he said, A certain man had two sons: ¹² And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me.

10 G3779 { Likewise G3004 [G5719] , I say G5213 to you G1096 [G5736] , there is G5479 joy G1799 in the presence G32 of the angels G2316 of God G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 [G5723] that repenteth.}

11 G1161 And G2036 [G5627] he said G5100 , { A certain G444 man G2192 [G5707] had G1417 two G5207 sons:}

12 G2532 { And G3501 the younger G846 of them G2036 [G5627] said G3962 to his father G3962 , Father G1325 [G5628] , give G3427 me G3313 the portion G3776 of goods G1911 [G5723] that falleth G2532 to me. And G1244 [G5627] he divided G846 to them G979 his living.}

13 G2532 { And G3756 not G4183 many G2250 days G3326 after G3501 the younger G5207 son G4863 0 gathered G537 all G4863 [G5631] together G589 [G5656] , and took his journey G1519 into G3117 a far G5561 country G2532 , and G1563 there G1287 [G5656] wasted G846 his G3776 substance G811 with riotous G2198 [G5723] living.}

14 G1161 { And G846 when he G1159 [G5660] had spent G3956 all G1096 [G5633] , there arose G2478 a mighty G3042 famine G2596 in G1565 that G5561 land G2532 ; and G846 he G756 [G5662] began G5302 [G5745] to be in want.}

15 G2532 { And G4198 [G5679] he went G2853 [G5681] and joined himself G1520 to G4177 a citizen G1565 of that G5561 country G2532 ; and G3992 [G5656] he sent G846 him G1519 into G846 his G68 fields G1006 [G5721] to feed G5519 swine.}

16 G2532 { And G1937 [G5707] he was longing G1072 [G5658] to fill G846 his G2836 belly G575 with G2769 the husks G3739 that G5519 the swine G2068 [G5707] ate G2532 : and G3762 no man G1325 [G5707] gave G846 to him.}

17 G1161 { And G2064 [G5631] when he came G1519 to G1438 himself G2036 [G5627] , he said G4214 , How many G3407 hired servants G3450 of my G3962 father G740 have bread G4052 [G5719] enough and to spare G1161 , and G1473 I G622 [G5731] am perishing G3042 with hunger!}

20 G2532 { And G450 [G5631] he arose G2064 [G5627] , and came G4314 to G1438 his G3962 father G1161 . But G846 when he G2089 was yet G3112 a great way G568 [G5723] off G846 , his G3962 father G1492 [G5627] saw G846 him G2532 , and G4697 [G5675] had compassion G2532 , and G5143 [G5631] ran G1968 [G5627] , and fell G1909 on G846 his G5137 neck G2532 , and G2705 [G5656] kissed G846 him.}

25 G1161 { Now G846 his G4245 elder G5207 son G2258 [G5713] was G1722 in G68 the field G2532 : and G5613 as G2064 [G5740] he came G1448 [G5656] and drew near G3614 to the house G191 [G5656] , he heard G4858 music G2532 and G5525 dancing.}

26 G2532 { And G4341 [G5666] he called G1520 one G3816 of the servants G4441 [G5711] , and asked G5101 what G5023 these things G1498 [G5751] meant.}

31 G1161 { And G2036 [G5627] he said G846 to him G5043 , Son G4771 , thou G1488 [G5748] art G3842 ever G3326 with G1700 me G2532 , and G3956 all G1699 that I have G2076 [G5748] is G4674 thine.}

Living_Oracles⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now, all the publicans and the sinners resorted to Jesus, to hear him. ² But the Pharisees and the Scribes murmured, saying, This man admits sinners, and eats with them. ³ Then he addressed this similitude to them: ⁴ What man, amongst you, who has a hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the desert, to go after that which is lost, till he find it? ⁵ And having found it, does he not joyfully lay it on his shoulders, ⁶ and when he is come home, convene his friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost? ⁷ Thus, I assure you, there is greater joy in heaven for one sinner who reforms, than for ninety-nine righteous persons, who need no reformation. ⁸ Or what woman, who has ten drachmas, if she lose one, does not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and search carefully till she find it? ⁹ And having found it, does she not assemble her female friends and neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost! ¹⁰ Such joy, I assure you, have the angels of God, when any sinner reforms. ¹¹ He said, also, A certain man had two sons. ¹² and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me my portion of the estate. And he allotted to them their shares. ¹³ Soon after, the younger son gathered all together, and traveled into a distant country, and there wasted his substance in riot. ¹⁴ When all was spent, a great famine came upon that land, and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ Then he applied to one of the inhabitants of the country, who sent him into his fields to keep swine. ¹⁶ And he desired to appease his hunger with the husks on which the swine were feeding; for no person gave him anything. ¹⁷ At length, coming to himself, he said, How many hirelings has my father, who have all more bread than suffices them, while I perish with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise, and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and you, ¹⁹ and am no longer worthy to be called your son. ²⁰ And he arose, and went to his father. When he was yet afar off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and threw himself upon his neck, and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said, Father, I have sinned against heaven and you, and am no longer worthy to be called your son. ²² But the father said to his servants, Bring here the principal robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his finger, and shoes on his feet: ²³ bring also the fatted calf, and kill it, and let us eat, and be merry; ²⁴ for this, my son, was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. So they began to be merry. ²⁵ Now his elder son was in the field, walking home. And as he drew near the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ He, therefore, called one of the servants, and asked the reason of this. ²⁷ He answered, Your brother is returned, and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him in health. ²⁸ And he was angry, and would not go in; therefore, his father came out, and entreated him. ²⁹ He answering, said to his father, These many years I have served you, without disobeying your command in anything; yet you never gave me a kid, that I might entertain my friends; ³⁰ but no sooner did this, your son, return, who had squandered your living on prostitutes, than you killed for him the fatted calf. ³¹ Son, replied the father, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours: ³² it was but reasonable that we should rejoice and be merry; because this, your brother, was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.

Etheridge⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Then drew near to him the publicans and sinners to hear him. ² And the Sophree and Pharishee murmured, and said, This (man) receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. ³ And Jeshu spake to them this parable: ⁴ What man of you, who hath a hundred sheep, if he shall lose one from them, does not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and, going, seeketh that which was lost until he shall have found it? ⁵ And when he hath found it, he rejoiceth and carrieth it upon his shoulders. ⁶ And, coming to his house, he calleth his friends and his neighbours, and saith to them, Rejoice with me; for I have found the sheep which was lost. ⁷ I say to you, that thus shall there be joy in heaven over one sinner who repenteth, more than over the ninety and nine just ones who have no need of repentance. ⁸ Or, who is the woman that hath ten zuzis, and shall lose one of them, (and) does not light a lamp and sweep the house, and seek it diligently, until she shall have found it? ⁹ And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours, and saith to them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my zuzi that I had lost. ¹⁰ I say to you, that so shall there be joy before the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. ¹¹ AND Jeshu said to them again, A certain man had two sons; ¹² and his minor [Zuro, less.] son said to him, My father, give to me my division of the goods of thy house. And he divided to them his substance. ¹³ And after a few days the minor son gathered together his all whatsoever, and went into a distant country, and there dispersed his substance in living profusely. ¹⁴ And when every thing he had was finished, there was a great famine in that country; and he began to want. ¹⁵ And he went and joined himself to one of the sons of the city of that place; and he sent him into the field to tend the swine. ¹⁶ And he had a desire to fill his belly with those karubs* which the swine did eat; and no man gave to him. [* Kurubee, the pods of the karub-tree, ceratonia siliqua.] ¹⁷ And when he came to himself, he said, How many hirelings are there now in my father's house, who have abundance of bread, and I here with hunger am perishing! ¹⁸ I will arise, go to my father, and say to him, My father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee, ¹⁹ and am no more worthy thy son to be called: make me as one of thy hirelings. ²⁰ And he arose, (and) went to his father. And while he was (yet) afar, his father saw him, and had compassion upon him, and ran, fell upon his neck, and kissed him. ²¹ And his son said to him, My father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee, and am not worthy thy son to be called. ²² But his father said to his servants, Bring forth the first [Or, principal.] robe to clothe him, and put a ring upon his hand, and let him be, shod with sandals, ²³ and bring, kill the calf that is fat, and let us eat and be glad; ²⁴ for this my son was dead, and he is alive; he was lost, and is found. And they began to rejoice. ²⁵ But he, the elder son, was in the field; and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard the voice of music; ²⁶ and he called one of the youths, and asked him what this was. ²⁷ He said to him, Thy brother hath come, and thy father hath killed the calf that was fat, because he hath received him well. ²⁸ And he was angry, and would not go in. And his father came forth and besought him. ²⁹ But he said to his father, Behold, how many years have I wrought thee service, and never have I transgressed thy commandment: yet never hast thou given me a kid, that I might feast with my friends. ³⁰ But this thy son, when he hath wasted thy substance with harlots, and hath come, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. ³¹ His father saith to him, My son, thou in all time art with me, and every thing that I have is thine. ³² But to rejoice it behoves us, and to be glad, because this thy brother was dead, and is alive; and was lost, and is found.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And publicans and sinners came to him, to hear him. ² And the Scribes and Pharisees murmured, and said: This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. ³ And Jesus spoke to them this similitude: ⁴ What man among you, that hath a hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the desert, and go and seek for that which is lost, until he find it? ⁵ And when he findeth it, he rejoiceth, and taketh it upon his shoulders; ⁶ and he cometh home, and he calleth together his friends and neighbors, and saith to them: Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep that was lost. ⁷ I say to you, that there will thus be joy in heaven, over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just ones, to whom repentance was not necessary. ⁸ Or what woman is there, who, if she have ten drachmas, and lose one of them, doth not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and search for it carefully, until she find it? ⁹ And when she hath found it, she calleth together her friends and neighbors, and saith to them: Rejoice with me, for I have found my drachma that was lost. ¹⁰ I say to you, That there will thus be joy, before the angels of God, over one sinner that repenteth. ¹¹ And Jesus said to them again: A certain man had two sons. ¹² And his younger son said to him: My father, give me the portion that falleth to me from thy house. And he divided to them his property. ¹³ And after a few days, the younger son collected together all that fell to him, and went to a distant place and there squandered his property, by living in dissipation. ¹⁴ And when he had consumed all that he had, there occurred a great famine in that place; and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went and connected himself with one of the citizens of that place: and he sent him into the field to tend swine. ¹⁶ And he longed to fill his belly with those pods which the swine ate: and no one gave to him. ¹⁷ And when he came to himself, he said: How many hired servants are now at my father's house, who have bread enough, and I am here perishing with hunger. ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and say to him: My father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee; ¹⁹ and am no longer worthy to be called thy son. Make me like one of thy hired servants. ²⁰ And he arose and went towards his father. And he was yet at a distance, when his father saw him; and he pitied him, and ran, and fell upon his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And his son said to him: My father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, and am not worthy to be called thy son. ²² But his father said to his servants: Bring forth the best robe, and clothe him, and put a ring on his hand, and supply him with shoes. ²³ And bring forth and slay the fatted bullock; and let us eat, and be merry. ²⁴ For, this my son was dead, and is alive; he was lost and is found. And they began to be merry. ²⁵ But his elder son was in the field; and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard the sound of the singing of many. ²⁶ And he called to one of the boys, and asked him what it meant. ²⁷ And he said to him: Thy brother hath come; and thy father hath killed the fatted bullock, because he hath received him in health. ²⁸ And he was angry, and would not go in: and his father went out and entreated him. ²⁹ And he said to his father: Lo, these many years have I labored in thy service, and never transgressed thy command; and thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But for this thy son, when he had dissipated thy property with harlots, and came home, thou hast slain the fatted bullock for him. ³¹ His father said to him: My son, thou hast been ever with me, and all that I have, is thine. ³² But it was proper for us to be merry, and to rejoice; because this thy brother was dead, and is alive; he was lost, and is found.

Sawyer⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ ^(20:1) AND all the publicans and sinners came near him to hear him. ² And both the Pharisees and scribes complained, saying, This man receives sinners and eats with them. ³ And he spoke to them this parable; saying, ⁴ What man of you having a hundred sheep, and losing one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the lost sheep till he finds it. ⁵ And finding it, he puts it on his shoulders rejoicing; ⁶ and coming to the house, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying, Congratulate me; for I have found my sheep that was lost. ⁷ So, I tell you, there shall be joy in heaven over one sinner that changes his mind, more than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need a change of mind. ⁸ ^(20:2) Or what woman having ten drachmas [140 cents], if she loses one drachma [14 cents], does not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek carefully till she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it, she calls her female friends and neighbors together, saying, Congratulate me, for I have found the drachma which I lost. ¹⁰ So, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner that changes his mind. ¹¹ ^(20:3) And he said, A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the youngest of them said to the father, Father, give me the portion of the estate that falls to me; and he divided to them his living. ¹³ And not many days after, the youngest son, collecting all his property, went abroad to a distant country; and there wasted his property, living intemperately. ¹⁴ And when he had spent all, there was a severe famine in that country; and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went and attached himself to one of the citizens of that country; and he sent him into his field to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he desired to fill his stomach with the carob pods which the swine eat; and no man gave him. ¹⁷ ^(20:4) And coming to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father abound in bread, but I perish here with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and say to him, Father, I have sinned to Heaven, and before you; ¹⁹ I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired servants. ²⁰ And he arose, and came to his father. But while he was yet far off, his father saw him, and had compassion on him, and ran and fell on his neck, and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned to Heaven, and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your son. ²² But the father said to his servants, Bring out the best robe and put on him; and put a ring on his hand, and sandals on his feet; ²³ and bring the fatted calf and kill it; let us eat, and rejoice; ²⁴ for this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to rejoice. ²⁵ ^(20:5) But his older son was in the field; and when he came and approached the house he heard music and the dancers. ²⁶ And calling one of the servants he inquired what these things meant. ²⁷ And he said to him, Your brother has come; and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him back in health. ²⁸ And he was angry, and would not go in; but his father came out and entreated him. ²⁹ And he answered and said to his father, Behold, l have served you so many years, and have never disobeyed your command; and you have never given me a kid, that I might rejoice with my friends; ³⁰ but when this your son came who has consumed his living with harlots, you killed for him the fatted calf. ³¹ But he said to him, Son, you are always with me, and all mine is yours. ³² We ought also to rejoice and be glad; for this your brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

Diaglott⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Were and drawing near to him all the tax-gathers and the sinners, to hear him. ² And murmured the Pharisees and the scribes, saying: That this sinners receives, and eats with them. ³ He said and to them the parable this, saying: ⁴ What man of you having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, not leaves behind the ninety-nine in the desert, and goes after that having been lost, till he may find it? ⁵ And having found, he lays on the shoulders of himself rejoicing; ⁶ and coming into the house he calls together the friends and the neighbors, saying to them: Rejoice with me, for I found the sheep of me that having been lost. ⁷ I say to you, that thus joy will be in the heaven over one sinner reforming, than over ninety-nine just ones, who no need have of reformation. ⁸ Or what woman, drachmas having ten, if she may lose drachma one, not lights a lamp, and sweeps the house, and seeks carefully, till she finds? ⁹ And having found she calling together the friends and the neighbors, saying: Rejoice with me, for I found the drachma, which I lost. ¹⁰ Thus, I say to you, joy produced in presence of the messengers of the God over one sinner reforming. ¹¹ He said and: A man certain had two sons. ¹² And said to younger of them to the father: O father, give to me the falling to part of the property.

¹¹ And he said, `A certain man had two sons, ¹² and the younger of them said to the father, Father, give me the portion of the substance falling to me, and he divided to them the living. ¹³ `And not many days after, having gathered all together, the younger son went abroad to a far country, and there he scattered his substance, living riotously; ¹⁴ and he having spent all, there came a mighty famine on that country, and himself began to be in want; ¹⁵ and having gone on, he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him to the fields to feed swine, ¹⁶ and he was desirous to fill his belly from the husks that the swine were eating, and no one was giving to him. ¹⁷ `And having come to himself, he said, How many hirelings of my father have a superabundance of bread, and I here with hunger am perishing! ¹⁸ having risen, I will go on unto my father, and will say to him, Father, I did sin—to the heaven, and before thee, ¹⁹ and no more am I worthy to be called thy son; make me as one of thy hirelings. ²⁰ `And having risen, he went unto his own father, and he being yet far distant, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and having ran he fell upon his neck and kissed him; ²¹ and the son said to him, Father, I did sin—to the heaven, and before thee, and no more am I worthy to be called thy son. ²² `And the father said unto his servants, Bring forth the first robe, and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and sandals for the feet; ²³ and having brought the fatted calf, kill it, and having eaten, we may be merry, ²⁴ because this my son was dead, and did live again, and he was lost, and was found; and they began to be merry. ²⁵ `And his elder son was in a field, and as, coming, he drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing, ²⁶ and having called near one of the young men, he was inquiring what these things might be, ²⁷ and he said to him—Thy brother is arrived, and thy father did kill the fatted calf, because in health he did receive him back. ²⁸ `And he was angry, and would not go in, therefore his father, having come forth, was entreating him; ²⁹ and he answering said to the father, Lo, so many years I do serve thee, and never thy command did I transgress, and to me thou didst never give a kid, that with my friends I might make merry; ³⁰ but when thy son—this one who did devour thy living with harlots—came, thou didst kill to him the fatted calf. ³¹ `And he said to him, Child, thou art always with me, and all my things are thine; ³² but to be merry, and to be glad, it was needful, because this thy brother was dead, and did live again, he was lost, and was found.'

And they began to be merry. ²⁵ Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ And he called to him one of the servants, and inquired what these things might be. ²⁷ And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound. ²⁸ But he was angry, and would not go in: and his father came out, and entreated him. ²⁹ But he answered and said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, and I never transgressed a commandment of thine; and [yet] thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends: ³⁰ but when this thy son came, who hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou killedst for him the fatted calf. ³¹ And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that is mine is thine. ³² But it was meet to make merry and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive [again]; and [was] lost, and is found.}

1 G1161 Now G3956 all G5057 the publicans G2532 and G268 sinners G2258 were drawing G1448 near G846 unto him G191 to hear G846 him.

2 G2532 And G5330 both the Pharisees G2532 and G1122 the scribes G1234 murmured, G3754 saying, G3778 This man G4327 receiveth G268 sinners, G2532 and G4906 eateth G846 with them.

3 G1161 And G2036 he spake G4314 unto G846 them G3778 this G3850 parable, G3004 saying,

4 G5101 What G444 man G1537 of G5216 you, G2192 having G1540 a hundred G4263 sheep, G2532 and G622 having lost G1520 one G1537 of G846 them, G2641 doth G3756 not G2641 leave G1768 the ninety and nine G1722 in G2048 the wilderness, G2532 and G4198 go G1909 after G3588 that which G622 is lost, G2193 until G2147 he find G846 it?

5 G2532 And G2147 when he hath found G2007 it, he layeth G1909 it on G1438 his G5606 shoulders, G5463 rejoicing.

6 G2532 And G2064 when he cometh G1519 G3624 home, G4779 he calleth together G5384 his friends G2532 and G1069 his neighbors, G3004 saying G846 unto them, G4796 Rejoice with G3427 me, G3754 for G2147 I have found G3450 my G4263 sheep G3588 which G622 was lost.

7 G3004 I say G5213 unto you, G3754 that G3779 even so G2071 there shall be G5479 joy G1722 in G3772 heaven G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 that repenteth, G2228 more than G1909 over G1768 ninety and nine G1342 righteous persons, G3748 who G2192 G5532 need G3756 no G3341 repentance.

8 G2228 Or G5101 what G1135 woman G2192 having G1176 ten G1406 pieces of silver, G1437 if G622 she lose G1520 one G1406 piece, G681 doth G3780 not G681 light G3088 a lamp, G2532 and G4563 sweep G3614 the house, G2532 and G2212 seek G1960 diligently G2193 until G3755 G2147 she find it?

9 G2532 And G2147 when she hath found G4779 it, she calleth G4779 together G5384 her friends G2532 and G1069 neighbors, G3004 saying, G4796 Rejoice with G3427 me, G3754 for G2147 I have found G1406 the piece G3739 which G622 I had lost.

10 G3779 Even so, G3004 I say G5213 unto you, G1096 there is G5479 joy G1799 in the presence of G32 the angels G2316 of God G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 that repenteth.

11 G1161 And G2036 he said, G5100 A certain G444 man G2192 had G1417 two G5207 sons:

12 G2532 and G3501 the younger G846 of them G2036 said G3962 to G3962 his father, G3962 Father, G1325 give G3427 me G3313 the portion G3776 of thy substance G1911 that falleth G2532 to me. And G1244 he divided G846 unto them G979 his living.

13 G2532 And G3756 not G4183 many G2250 days G3326 after, G3501 the younger G5207 son G4863 gathered G537 all G4863 together G589 and took his journey G1519 into G3117 a far G5561 country; G2532 and G1563 there G1287 he wasted G846 his G3776 substance G811 with riotous G2198 living.

14 G1161 And G846 when he G1159 had spent G3956 all, G1096 there arose G2478 a mighty G3042 famine G2596 in G1565 that G5561 country; G2532 and G846 he G756 began G5302 to be in want.

15 G2532 And G4198 he went G2853 and joined himself G1520 to G4177 one of the citizens G1565 of that G5561 country; G2532 and G3992 he sent G846 him G1519 into G846 his G68 fields G1006 to feed G5519 swine.

16 G2532 And G1937 he would fain G1072 have filled G846 his G2836 belly G575 with G2769 the husks G3739 that G5519 the swine G2068 did eat: G2532 and G3762 no man G1325 gave G846 unto him.

17 G2064 But when he came G1519 to G1438 himself G2036 he said, G4214 How many G3407 hired servants G3450 of my G3962 father's G740 have bread G1161 enough and G4052 to spare, G1161 and G1473 I G622 perish G3042 here with hunger!

18 G450 I will arise G4198 and go G4314 to G3450 my G3962 father, G2532 and G2046 will say G846 unto him, G3962 Father, G264 I have sinned G1519 against G3772 heaven, G2532 and G4675 in thy G1799 sight:

19 G2532 I G1510 am G3765 no more G514 worthy G2564 to be called G4675 your G5207 son: G4160 make G3165 me G5613 as G1520 one G4675 of thy G3407 hired servants.

20 G2532 And G450 he arose, G2064 and came G4314 to G1438 his G3962 father. G1161 But G846 while he G568 was G2089 yet G3112 afar off, G846 his G3962 father G1492 saw G846 him, G2532 and G4697 was moved with compassion, G2532 and G5143 ran, G1968 and fell G1909 on G846 his G5137 neck, G2532 and G2705 kissed G846 him.

21 G1161 And G5207 the son G2036 said G846 unto him, G3962 Father, G264 I have sinned G1519 against G3772 heaven, G2532 and G1799 in G4675 thy G1799 sight: G2532 I G1510 am G3765 no more G514 worthy G2564 to be called G4675 thy G5207 son.

22 G1161 But G3962 the father G2036 said G4314 to G846 his G1401 servants, G1627 Bring forth G4413 quickly the best G4749 robe, G2532 and G1746 put G1746 it on G846 him; G2532 and G1325 put G1146 a ring G1519 on G846 his G5495 hand, G2532 and G5266 shoes G1519 on G4228 his feet:

23 G2532 and G5342 bring G4618 the fatted G3448 calf, G2380 and kill G2532 it, and G5315 let us eat, G2165 and make merry:

24 G3778 for G3778 this G3450 my G5207 son G2258 was G3498 dead, G2532 and G2532 is alive again; G2258 he was G622 lost, G2532 and G2147 is found. G2532 And G756 they began G2165 to be merry.

25 G1161 Now G846 his G4245 elder G5207 son G2258 was G1722 in G68 the field: G2532 and G5613 as G2064 he came G1448 and drew nigh G3614 to the house, G191 he heard G4858 music G2532 and G5525 dancing.

26 G2532 And G4341 he called G1520 to him one G3816 of the servants, G4441 and inquired G846 G5101 what G5023 these things G1498 might be.

27 G1161 And G2036 he said G3754 unto him, G4675 Thy G80 brother G2240 is come; G2532 and G4675 thy G3962 father G2380 hath killed G4618 the fatted G3448 calf, G3754 because G618 he hath received G846 him G5198 safe and sound.

28 G1161 But G3710 he was angry, G2532 and G2309 would G3756 not G1525 go in: G3767 and G846 his G3962 father G1831 came G1831 out, G3870 and entreated G846 him.

29 G1161 But G611 he answered G2036 and said G3962 to G3962 his father, G2400 Lo, G5118 these many G2094 years G1398 do I serve G4671 thee, G2532 and G3928 I G3763 never G1785 transgressed a commandment G4675 of thine; G2532 and G1325 yet thou G3763 never G1325 gavest G1698 me G2056 a kid, G2443 that G2165 I might make merry G3326 with G3450 my G5384 friends:

30 G1161 but G3753 when G3778 this G4675 thy G5207 son G2064 came, G3588 who G2719 hath devoured G4675 thy G979 living G3326 with G4204 harlots, G2380 thou killedst G846 for him G4618 the fatted G3448 calf.

31 G1161 And G2036 he said G846 unto him, G5043 Son, G4771 thou G1488 art G3842 ever G3326 with G1700 me, G2532 and G3956 all G1699 that is mine G2076 is G4674 thine.

32 G1163 But it was meet G2165 to make merry G2532 and G5463 be glad: G3754 for G3778 this G4675 thy G80 brother G2258 was G3498 dead, G2532 and G326 is alive again; G2532 and G2258 was G622 lost, G2532 and G2147 is found.

JPS_ASV_Byz⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the publicans and sinners were drawing near unto him to hear him. ² And both the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. ³ And he spake unto them this parable, saying, ⁴ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? ⁵ And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and his neighbors, saying unto them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost. ⁷ I say unto you, that even so there shall be joy in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine righteous persons, who need no repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek diligently until she find it? ⁹ And when she hath found it, she calleth together her friends and neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the piece which I had lost. ¹⁰ Even so, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. ¹¹ And he said, A certain man had two sons; ¹² and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of thy substance that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. ¹³ And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together and took his journey into a far country, and there he wasted his substance with riotous living. ¹⁴ And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that country, and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat; and no man gave unto him. ¹⁷ But when he came to himself he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish here with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight; ¹⁹ I am no more worthy to be called your son; make me as one of thy hired servants. ²⁰ And he arose, and came to his father.

And they began to be merry. ²⁵ Now his elder son was in the field; and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ And he called to him one of the servants, and inquired what these things might be. ²⁷ And he said unto him, Thy brother is come, and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound. ²⁸ But he was angry, and would not go in; and his father came out, and entreated him. ²⁹ But he answered and said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, and I never transgressed a commandment of thine, and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends; ³⁰ but when this thy son came, who hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou killedst for him the fatted calf. ³¹ And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that is mine is thine. ³² But it was meet to make merry and be glad; for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again, and was lost, and is found.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ But all the tax–collectors and the sinners were, unto him, drawing near, to be hearkening unto him; ² and both the Pharisees and the Scribes were murmuring, saying, This man, unto sinners, giveth welcome, and eateth with them. ³ And he spake unto them this parable, saying–– ⁴ What man from among you, having a hundred sheep, and losing, from among them, one, doth not leave the ninety–nine in the wilderness and go his way after the lost one, until he find it? ⁵ And, finding it, he layeth it upon his shoulders, rejoicing; ⁶ and, coming unto his house, calleth together the friends and the neighbours, saying unto them––Rejoice with me! because I have found my sheep that was lost! ⁷ I say unto you––Thus, joy in heaven, will there be, over one sinner repenting, rather than over ninety–nine righteous persons, who indeed have, no need, of repentance. ⁸ Or, what woman, having, ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek carefully, until she find it? ⁹ And, having found it, she calleth together her female friends and neighbours, saying––Rejoice with me! because I have found the piece of silver which I had lost. ¹⁰ Thus, I say unto you, there ariseth joy in presence of the messengers of God, over one sinner repenting.
¹¹ And he said––A certain man, had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said unto the father––Father! give me the share that falleth to me, of what there is. And, he, divided unto them the living. ¹³ And, after not many days, the younger son, gathering all together, left home for a country far away, and, there, squandered his substance with riotous living. ¹⁴ And, when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine throughout that country,––and, he, began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went his way, and joined himself unto one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to be feeding swine. ¹⁶ And he used to long to be filled with the pods which the swine were eating; and, no man, was giving unto him. ¹⁷ But coming, to himself, he said––How many hired servants of my father, have bread enough and to spare, whereas, I, with famine, here, am perishing! ¹⁸ I will arise, and go unto my father, and will say unto him––Father! I have sinned against heaven, and before thee: ¹⁹ No longer, am I worthy to be called a son of thine,––Make me as one of thy hired servants. And he arose, and came unto his own father. ²⁰ Now, while yet he was holding afar off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and, running, fell upon his neck, and tenderly kissed him. ²¹ And the son said unto him––Father! I have sinned against heaven, and before thee: No longer, am I worthy to be called a son of thine,––[make me as one of thy hired servants.] ²² But the father said unto his servants––Quick! bring forth a robe––the best! and put on him, and get out a ring for his hand, and sandals for his feet. ²³ And be bringing the fatted calf, sacrifice! and let us eat and make merry: ²⁴ Because, this my son, was, dead, and hath come to life again, was lost, and is found. And they began to be making merry. ²⁵ But his elder son was in a field; and, as, in coming, he drew near unto the house, he heard music and dancing,–– ²⁶ and, calling near one of the youths, he inquired what these things, could be. ²⁷ And, he, said unto him,––Thy brother, hath come, and thy father hath sacrificed the fatted calf, because, safe and sound, hath he received him back. ²⁸ But he was provoked to anger, and would not go in. And, his father, coming out, began to entreat him. ²⁹ But, he, answering said unto his father––Lo! so many years as these, do I serve thee, and, at no time, a commandment of thine, have I transgressed,––And, unto me, at no time, hast thou given a kid, that, with my friends, I might make merry; ³⁰ But, when, this thy son, who had devoured thy living with harlots, came, thou didst sacrifice, for him, the fatted calf; ³¹ But, he, said unto him––Child! thou, always, art, with me, and, all that is mine, is, thine; ³² But, to make merry and rejoice, there was need, because, this thy brother––was, dead, and hath come to life again, and was lost, and is found.

Twentieth_Century⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ The tax-gatherers and the outcasts were all drawing near to Jesus to listen to him; ² But the Pharisees and the Teachers of the Law found fault. "This man always welcomes outcasts, and takes meals with them!" they complained. ³ So Jesus told them this parable-- ⁴ "What man among you who has a hundred sheep, and has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine out in the open country, and go after the lost sheep till he finds it? ⁵ And, when he has found it, he puts in on his shoulders rejoicing; ⁶ And, on reaching home, he calls his friends and his neighbors together, and says 'Come and rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.' ⁷ So, I tell you, there will be more rejoicing in Heaven over one outcast that repents, than over ninety-nine religious men, who have no need to repent. ⁸ Or again, what woman who has ten silver coins, if she loses one of them, does not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And, when she has found it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, and says 'Come and rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I lost.' ¹⁰ So, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of God's angels over one outcast that repents." ¹¹ Then Jesus continued: "A man had two sons; ¹² And the younger of them said to his father 'Father, give me my share of the inheritance.' So the father divided the property between them. ¹³ A few days later the younger son got together all that he had, and went away into a distant land; and there he squandered his inheritance by leading a dissolute life. ¹⁴ After he has spent all that he had, there was a severe famine through all that country, and he began to be in actual want. ¹⁵ So he went and engaged himself to one of the people of that country, who sent him into his fields to tend pigs. ¹⁶ He even longed to satisfy his hunger with the bean-pods on which the pigs were feeding; and no one gave him anything. ¹⁷ But, when he came to himself, he said 'How many of my father's hired servants have more bread than they can eat, while here am I starving to death! ¹⁸ I will get up and go to my father, and say to him "Father, I sinned against Heaven and against you; ¹⁹ I am no longer fit to be called your son; make me one of your hired servants."' ²⁰ And he got up and went to his father. But, while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was deeply moved; he ran and threw his arms round his neck and kissed him. ²¹ 'Father,' the son said, 'I sinned against Heaven and against you; I am no longer fit to be called your son; make me one of your hired servants.' ²² But the father turned to his servants and said 'Be quick and fetch a robe--the very best--and put it on him; give him a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet; ²³ And bring the fattened calf and kill it, and let us eat and make merry; ²⁴ For here is my son who was dead, and is alive again, was lost, and is found.' So they began making merry. ²⁵ Meanwhile the elder son was out in the fields; but, on coming home, when he got near the house, he heard music and dancing, ²⁶ And he called one of the servants and asked what it all meant. ²⁷ 'Your brother has come back,' the servant told him, 'and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has him back safe and sound.' ²⁸ This made him angry, and he would not go in. But his father came out and begged him to do so. ²⁹ 'No,' he said to his father, 'look at all the years I have been serving you, without ever once disobeying you, and yet you have never given me even a kid, so that I might have a merry-making with my friends. ³⁰ But, no sooner has this son of yours come, who has eaten up your property in the company of prostitutes, than you have killed the fattened calf for him.' ³¹ 'Child,' the father answered, 'you are always with me, and everything that I have is yours. ³² We could but make merry and rejoice, for here is your brother who was dead, and is alive; who was lost, and is found.'"

Godbey⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And all the publicans and sinners were drawing nigh to Him to hear Him. ² And the Pharisees and scribes were murmuring, saying, that, He receives sinners, and eats with them. ³ And He spoke this parable to them, saying, ⁴ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, does not leave the ninety and nine in the desert, and go after the lost one, until he may find it? ⁵ And having found it, places it on his shoulders, rejoicing: ⁶ and having come into the house, calls together the friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep which was lost. ⁷ I say unto you that so there will be joy in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, rather than ninety and nine just persons who have not need of repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten drachmae, if she may lose one drachma, does she not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she may find it? ⁹ And having found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me, because I have found the drachma which I lost. ¹⁰ So, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. ¹¹ And He said, A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to the father, Father, give to me the portion of the estate that falls to me. And he immediately divided unto them his living. ¹³ And not many days afterward the younger son gathering all together, departed into a far-off country; and there wasted his substance living riotously. ¹⁴ And he having expended all, a severe famine came into that country; and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And having gone he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country: and he sent him into his fields to feed swine: ¹⁶ and he was desiring to fill his stomach from the pods, which the swine were eating: and no one gave unto him: ¹⁷ and having come to himself he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread in abundance, but here I perish with hunger! ¹⁸ Having risen I will go to my father, and say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight: ¹⁹ and I am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. ²⁰ And having risen, he came to his father. And he being yet a great way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and having run, fell upon his neck, and kissed him copiously. ²¹ And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight: and I am no more worthy to be called thy son. ²² And the father said to his servants, Bring hither the first robe, and put it on him; and give a ring to his hand, and sandals to his feet: ²³ and bring hither the fatted calf, slay him, and eating, let us be merry: ²⁴ because this my son was dead, and is alive again; was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry. ²⁵ And his elder son was in the field: and while coming he drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ And calling one of the servants, asked him what these things might be. ²⁷ And he said to him, Because thy brother has come; and thy father has slain the fatted calf, because he received him sound. ²⁸ And he was angry, and did not wish to come in: and his father having gone out, continued to intreat him. And responding he said to the father, ²⁹ Behold, I serve thee so many years, and have never transgressed thy commandment: and thou hast never given me a kid, that I may rejoice with my friends: ³⁰ but when this thy son, the one devouring thy living with harlots came, thou hast slain for him the fatted calf. ³¹ And he said to him, Child, thou art always with me, and all mine are thine: ³² and it behooved me to be glad and rejoice; because this thy brother was dead, and is alive; was lost, and is found.

WNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now the tax-gatherers and the notorious sinners were everywhere in the habit of coming close to Him to listen to Him; ² and this led the Pharisees and the Scribes indignantly to complain, saying, "He gives a welcome to notorious sinners, and joins them at their meals!" ³ So in figurative language He asked them, ⁴ "Which of you men, if he has a hundred sheep and has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in their pasture and go in search of the lost one till he finds it? ⁵ And when he has found it, he lifts it on his shoulder, glad at heart. ⁶ Then coming home he calls his friends and neighbours together, and says, 'Congratulate me, for I have found my sheep--the one I had lost.' ⁷ I tell you that in the same way there will be rejoicing in Heaven over one repentant sinner--more rejoicing than over ninety-nine blameless persons who have no need of repentance. ⁸ "Or what woman who has ten silver coins, if she loses one of them, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully till she finds it? ⁹ And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbours, and says, "'Congratulate me, for I have found the coin which I had lost.' ¹⁰ "I tell you that in the same way there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one repentant sinner." ¹¹ He went on to say, "There was a man who had two sons. ¹² The younger of them said to his father, "'Father, give me the share of the property that comes to me.' "So he divided his wealth between them. ¹³ No long time afterwards the younger son got all together and travelled to a distant country, where he wasted his money in debauchery and excess. ¹⁴ At last, when he had spent everything, there came a terrible famine throughout that country, and he began to feel the pinch of want. ¹⁵ So he went and hired himself to one of the inhabitants of that country, who sent him on to his farm to tend swine; ¹⁶ and he longed to make a hearty meal of the pods the swine were eating, but no one gave him any. ¹⁷ "But on coming to himself he said, "'How many of my father's hired men have more bread than they want, while I here am dying of hunger! ¹⁸ I will rise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and before you: ¹⁹ I no longer deserve to be called a son of yours: treat me as one of your hired men.' ²⁰ "So he rose and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and pitied him, and ran and threw his arms round his neck and kissed him tenderly. ²¹ "'Father,' cried the son, 'I have sinned against Heaven and before you: no longer do I deserve to be called a son of yours.' ²² "But the father said to his servants, "'Fetch a good coat quickly--the best one--and put it on him; and bring a ring for his finger and shoes for his feet. ²³ Fetch the fat calf and kill it, and let us feast and enjoy ourselves; ²⁴ for my son here was dead and has come to life again: he was lost and has been found.' "And they began to be merry. ²⁵ "Now his elder son was out on the farm; and when he returned and came near home, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ Then he called one of the lads to him and asked what all this meant. ²⁷ "'Your brother has come,' he replied; 'and your father has had the fat calf killed, because he has got him home safe and sound.' ²⁸ "Then he was angry and would not go in. But his father came out and entreated him. ²⁹ "'All these years,' replied the son, 'I have been slaving for you, and I have never at any time disobeyed any of your orders, and yet you have never given me so much as a kid, for me to enjoy myself with my friends; ³⁰ but now that this son of yours is come who has eaten up your property among his bad women, you have killed the fat calf for him.' ³¹ "'You my dear son,' said the father, 'are always with me, and all that is mine is also yours. ³² We are bound to make merry and rejoice, for this brother of yours was dead and has come back to life, he was lost and has been found.'"

Worrell⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax collectors and sinners were drawing near to Him to hear Him. ² And both the scribes and the Pharisees were murmuring, saying, "This Man receiveth sinners and eateth with them!" ³ And He spake to them this parable, saying, ⁴ "What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and losing one of them, does not leave behind the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after the lost one, until he finds it? ⁵ And, finding it, he places it upon his shoulders, rejoicing: ⁶ and, coming to his house, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me, because I found my sheep, which was lost. ⁷ I say to you, that so there will be joy in Heaven over one sinner that repents, more than over ninety-nine righteous men who have no need of repentance. ⁸ "Or what woman, having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, does not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek diligently, till she finds it? ⁹ And, having found it, she calls together her female friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me; because I found the piece which I lost!' ¹⁰ So, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repents." ¹¹ And He said, "A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger said to his father, 'Father, give me the portion of the estate that falls to me.' And he divided to them his living. ¹³ And, not many days after, gathering all things together, the younger son went abroad into a far country, and there wasted his estate, living riotously. ¹⁴ And, when he spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that country; and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And, going his way, he attached himself to one of the citizens of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he was longing to be filled with the pods which the swine were eating; and no one was giving to him. ¹⁷ But, coming to himself, he said, 'How many hired servants of my father have a superabundance of bread, and I am perishing here with hunger! ¹⁸ Arising, I will go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I sinned against Heaven, and before you; ¹⁹ I am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired servants.' ²⁰ And, arising, he came to his father. But, while he was yet afar off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion; and, running, he fell on his neck, and kissed him much. ²¹ And the son said to the father, 'Father, I sinned against Heaven, and before you; no longer am I worthy to be called your son!' ²² But the father said to his servants, 'Quickly bring forth a robe, the best, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and sandals on his feet; ²³ and bring ye the fatted calf, kill it; and, eating, let us be merry; ²⁴ because this my son was dead, and came to life again; had been lost, and was found.' And they began to be merry. ²⁵ "Now his elder son was in a field; and as, in coming, he drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ And, calling to him one of the young men, he inquired of him, what these things might be. ²⁷ And he said to him, 'Your brother has come; and your father killed the fatted calf, because he received him in sound health.' ²⁸ But he was angry, and was not willing to go in; but his father, coming out, kept entreating him. ²⁹ But he, answering, said to his father, 'Behold, so many years do I serve you; and, at no time, did I transgress a command of yours; and you never gave me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But, when your son—this one who devoured your living with harlots—came, you killed for him the fatted calf!' ³¹ And he said to him, 'Child, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours' ³² But it was meet to make merry, and rejoice; because this your brother was dead, and came to life again; and had been lost, and was found."

Moffatt⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now the tax gatherers and sinners were all approaching him to listen to him, ² but the Pharisees and the scribes complained, "He welcomes sinners and eats along with them!" ³ So he told them this parable, ⁴ "Which of you with a hundred sheep, if he loses one, does not leave the ninety-nine in the desert and go after the lost one till he finds it? ⁵ When he finds it he puts it on his shoulders with joy, ⁶ and when he gets home he gathers his friends and neighbours: 'Rejoice with me,' he says to them, 'for I have found the sheep I lost.' ⁷ So, I tell you, there will be joy in heaven over a single sinner who repents, more than over ninety-nine good people who do not need to repent. ⁸ Or again, suppose a woman has ten shillings. If she loses one of them, does she not light a lamp and scour the house and search carefully till she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it she gathers her women-friends and neighbours, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the shilling I lost.' ¹⁰ So, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over a single sinner who repents." ¹¹ He also said: "There was a man who had two sons, ¹² and the younger said to his father, 'Father, give me the share of the property that falls to me.' So he divided his means among them. ¹³ Not many days later, the younger son sold off everything and went abroad to a distant land, where he squandered his means in loose living. ¹⁴ After he had spent his all, a severe famine set in throughout that land, and he began to feel in want; ¹⁵ so he went and attached himself to a citizen of that land, who sent him to his fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he was fain to fill his belly with the pods the swine were eating; no one gave him anything. ¹⁷ But when he came to his senses he said, 'How many hired men of my father have more than enough to eat, and here am I perishing of hunger! ¹⁸ I will be up and off to my father, and I will say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; ¹⁹ I don't deserve to be called your son any more; only make me like one of your hired men."' ²⁰ So he got up and went off to his father. But when he was still far away his father saw him and felt pity for him and ran to fall upon his neck and kiss him. ²¹ The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; I don't deserve to be called your son any more.' ²² But the father said to his servants, 'Quick, bring the best robe and put it on him, give him a ring for his hand and sandals for his feet, ²³ and bring the fatted calf, kill it, and let us eat and be merry; ²⁴ for my son here was dead and he has come to life, he was lost and he is found.' So they began to make merry. ²⁵ Now his elder son was out in the field, and as he came near the house he heard music and dancing; ²⁶ so, summoning one of the servants, he asked what this meant. ²⁷ The servant told him, 'Your brother has arrived, and your father has killed the fatted calf because he has got him back safe and sound.' ²⁸ This angered him, and he would not go in. His father came out and tried to appease him, ²⁹ but he replied, 'Look at all the years I have been serving you! I have never neglected any of your orders, and yet you have never given me so much as a kid, to let me make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But as soon as this son of yours arrives, after having wasted your means with harlots, you kill the fatted calf for him!' ³¹ The father said to him, 'My son, you and I are always together, all I have is yours. ³² We could not but make merry and rejoice, for your brother here was dead and has come to life again, he was lost but he has been found.' "

Goodspeed⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ All the tax-collectors and irreligious people were crowding up to hear him. ² And the Pharisees and scribes grumbled, and said, "This man welcomes irreligious people, and even eats with them!" ³ So in speaking to them he used this figure: ⁴ "What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep, and loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go in search of the one that is lost, until he finds it? ⁵ And when he finds it, he puts it on his shoulders with joy, ⁶ and when he reaches home, he calls in his friends and neighbors, and says to them, 'Congratulate me, for I have found my lost sheep!' ⁷ I tell you, in just that way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinful person who repents, than over ninety-nine upright people who do not need any repentance. ⁸ Or what woman who has ten silver coins and loses one, does not light the lamp and sweep the house and look carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it, she calls in her friends and neighbors, and says to them, 'Congratulate me, for I have found the coin that I lost!' ¹⁰ In just that way, I tell you, there is joy among the angels of God over one sinful person who repents!" ¹¹ And he said, "A man had two sons. ¹² The younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me my share of the property.' So he divided his property between them. ¹³ Not many days later, the younger son gathered up all he had, and went away to a distant country, and there he squandered his property by fast living. ¹⁴ After he had spent it all, a severe famine arose in that country, and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went and hired himself out to a resident of the country, and he sent him into his fields to tend pigs. ¹⁶ And he was ready to fill himself with the pods the pigs were eating, and no one would give him anything. ¹⁷ When he came to himself he said, 'How many hired men my father has, who have more than enough to eat, and here I am, dying of hunger! ¹⁸ I will get up, and go to my father, and say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your eyes; ¹⁹ I no longer deserve to be called your son; treat me like one of your hired men!" ' ²⁰ And he got up and went to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him, and pitied him, and ran and fell on his neck, and kissed him. ²¹ His son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your eyes; I no longer deserve to be called your son; treat me like one of your hired men!' ²² But his father said to his slaves, 'Make haste and get out the best robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet; ²³ and get the calf we are fattening, and kill it, and let us feast and celebrate, ²⁴ for my son here was dead, and he has come to life; he was lost, and he is found!' So they began to celebrate. ²⁵ But his elder son was in the field. When he came in and approached the house, he heard music and dancing, ²⁶ and he called one of the servants to him and asked him what it meant. ²⁷ He said to him, 'Your brother has come, and your father has killed the calf he has been fattening, because he has gotten him back alive and well.' ²⁸ But he was angry and would not go into the house. And his father came out and urged him. ²⁹ And he said to his father, 'Here I have served you all these years, and have never disobeyed an order of yours, and you have never given me a kid, so that I could entertain my friends. ³⁰ But when your son here came, who has eaten up your property with women of the street, for him you killed the calf you have been fattening!' ³¹ But he said to him, 'My child, you have been with me all the time, and everything I have is yours. ³² But we had to celebrate and be glad, because your brother was dead, and has come to life, and was lost and is found!' "

Riverside⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ ALL the tax collectors and sinners were drawing near to him in order to hear him. ² The Pharisees and the scribes grumbled to one another, "This man welcomes sinners and eats with them." ³ He gave them this illustration: ⁴ "What man of you, if he has a hundred sheep and has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the lost one until he has found it? ⁵ And when he has found it he lays it on his shoulders with joy, ⁶ and when he comes home he calls together his friends and neighbors and says, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost!' ⁷ I tell you there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner whose heart is changed than over ninety-nine righteous men who have no need to change. ⁸ "Or what woman who has ten shillings, if she loses one shilling, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and look for it carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it, she calls together her friends and neighbors and says, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the shilling that I lost.' ¹⁰ So I tell you there springs joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner whose heart is changed." ¹¹ He said further, "A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the portion of the property that is coming to me.' So he divided his wealth between them. ¹³ Not many days later, the younger son got everything together and went away to a far country and there squandered his property in a dissolute life. ¹⁴ When he had spent everything, there came a terrible famine in that land and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ So he went and attached himself to one of the citizens of that country who sent him into his fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he would fain have filled his stomach with the pods the swine were eating, but no one gave him anything. ¹⁷ Then, coming to himself, he said, 'How many hired men of my father have bread more than enough, and here I am perishing with famine. ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. ¹⁹ I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired men.' ²⁰ And he arose and came to his father. But while he was still far off, his father saw him and pitied him, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him tenderly. ²¹ The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son' — ²² But the father said to his servants, 'Bring out quickly the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet; ²³ and bring the fattened calf and kill it, and let us eat and make merry. ²⁴ For this, my son, was dead and has come to life; he was lost and has been found.' And they began to be merry. ²⁵ Now his older son was in the field, and when on returning he drew near the house he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ Calling to him one of the servants, he inquired what this was. The servant said to him, ²⁷ 'Your brother has come and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has received him back in health.' ²⁸ But he grew angry, and would not go in. Then his father came out and begged him. ²⁹ But he answered his father, 'See, all these years I have been serving you, and I never broke a command of yours, yet you have never given me a kid to make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But when this son of yours, who has wasted your property with bad women, came, you have killed for him the fattened calf.' ³¹ But the father said to him, 'Child, you are always with me and all that I have is yours. ³² We could not but make merry and rejoice, for your brother here was dead and has come to life; he was lost and is found.'

MNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax-gatherers and sinners continued to draw near him, and to listen to him. ² And the Pharisees and Scribes began to complain, saying, "He is welcoming sinners and eating with them!" ³ And he told them a parable. ⁴ "Which one of you men, if he has a hundred sheep, and has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety and nine in the desert and go after the lost one until he finds it? ⁵ "And after he has found it, he lays it on his shoulder, rejoicing. ⁶ "When he gets home he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying, "Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost.' ⁷ "I say to you that even so there shall be joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, more than over ninety and nine just persons who need no repentance. ⁸ "Or, again, suppose a woman has ten coins. If she loses one, does she not light a lamp and sweep the house, and search anxiously until she finds it? ⁹ "And when she has found it, she calls together her woman friends and neighbors and say, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I had lost.' ¹⁰ "Even so I tell you there is joy in the presence of the angels for God over one sinner who repents." ¹¹ And he said: "There was a man who had two sons. ¹² "The younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the share of your property which is coming to me.' So he divided his means among them. ¹³ "Not many days after that the younger son gathered everything together and took his journey into a distant country; and there he wasted his money on living unsavingly. ¹⁴ "After he had spent everything there came a terrible famine in the land, and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ "So he went and hired to one of the citizens of that land, who sent him out into the fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ "And he was longing to be filled with the husks which the swine were eating, but no one gave him any. ¹⁷ "When he came to himself he said: "'How many of my father's hired men have bread enough and to spare, while I am perishing of hunger! ¹⁸ "'I will rise and go to my father, and say to him. "Father, I have sinned against Heaven and in your sight, ¹⁹ "'"I am no more worthy to be called your son; only make me like one of your hired men."' ²⁰ "So he arose and went to his father; but while he was yet a great way off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. ²¹ "The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight and am no more worthy to be called your son.' ²² "'Fetch the best robe, quick,' said the father to his slaves, 'and put it on him, and give him a ring on his finger, and shoes on his feet. ²³ "'Bring that fatted calf and kill it, and let us eat and make merry, ²⁴ "'for this son of mine was dead and is alive again—he was lost and is found.' ²⁵ "So they began to make merry. But his elder son was in the field, and as he drew near to the house he heard music and dancing, ²⁶ "and he summoned one of the slaves, and began to inquire of him what all this meant. ²⁷ "'Your brother is come,' he replied, 'and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has him safe and sound.' ²⁸ "But he was angry and would not go in; so his father came out, and attempted to plead with him; but he said to his father. ²⁹ "'All these years I have been slaving for you and never disobeyed a command of yours. Yet you never gave me even a kid so that I might make merry with my friends. ³⁰ "'But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your property with harlots, you have killed him the fatted calf.' ³¹ "'My dear son,' answered his father, 'you are always with me and all that is mine is yours. ³² "'But it was fitting that we should make merry and rejoice, for this brother of yours was dead and is alive; he was lost and is found.'"

Lamsa⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ THEN the publicans and sinners drew near to him to hear him. ² And the scribes and Pharisees murmured, saying, He receives even the sinners and eats with them. ³ So Jesus told them this parable, ⁴ What man among you has one hundred sheep, and if one of them should get lost, would he not leave the ninety and nine in the open, and go in search of the one which is lost, until he finds it? ⁵ And when he finds it he rejoices, and he takes it on his shoulders. ⁶ And he comes to his house, and invites his friends and neighbors, and says to them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost. ⁷ I say to you, that such will be the joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety and nine righteous, who need no repentance. ⁸ Or what woman who has ten coins, and should lose one of them, would not light a lamp and sweep the house, and search for it carefully, until she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it, she calls her women friends and neighbors, and says to them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my coin which was lost. ¹⁰ I say to you, that such will be the joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents. ¹¹ And Jesus said to them again, A man had two sons; ¹² And his younger son said to him, My father, give me the portion, which is coming to me from your house. And he divided to them his possessions. ¹³ And after a few days, his younger son gathered everything that was his share, and went to a far-away country, and there he scattered his wealth in extravagant living. ¹⁴ And when all he had was gone, there was a severe famine in that country; and he began to be in need. ¹⁵ So he went and got acquainted with one of the men of the city of that country; and he sent him to the field to feed the swine. ¹⁶ And he craved to fill his stomach with the husks that the swine were eating; and yet no man would give him. ¹⁷ And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired workers are now in my fatherÆs house, who have plenty of bread, and I am here perishing with hunger! ¹⁸ I will rise and go to my father, and say to him, My father, I have sinned before heaven, and before you; ¹⁹ And I am no longer worthy to be called your son; just make me like one of your hired workers. ²⁰ And he rose up and came to his father. And while he was yet at a distance, his father saw him, and had compassion on him, and he ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And his son said to him, My father, I have sinned before heaven and before you, and I am not worthy to be called your son. ²² But his father said to his servants, Bring the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet; ²³ And bring and kill the fat ox, and let us eat and be merry; ²⁴ For this my son was dead, and has come to life; he was lost and is found. And they began to be merry. ²⁵ But his elder son was in the field; and as he came near the house, he heard the voice of the singing of many. ²⁶ And he called one of the boys, and asked him what it was all about. ²⁷ He said to him, Your brother has come; and your father has killed the fat ox, because he received him safe and well. ²⁸ And he became angry and would not go in; so his father came out and besought him. ²⁹ But he said to his father, Behold, how many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed your commandment; and yet you never gave me even a kid, that I might make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But for this son of yours, after he had wasted your wealth with harlots and come back, you have killed the fat ox. ³¹ His father said to him, My son, you are always with me, and everything which is mine is yours. ³² It was right for us to make merry and rejoice; for this your brother was dead and has come to life; and was lost and is found.

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tribute collectors and sinners were coming near Him to be hearing Him. ² And both the Pharisees and the scribes grumbled, saying that "This man sinners is receiving, and is eating with them!" ³ Now He told them this parable, saying, ⁴ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and losing one of them, is not leaving the ninety-nine in the wilderness and is going after the lost one, till he may be finding it? ⁵ And finding it, he is placing it on his shoulders, rejoicing." ⁶ And, coming into the house, he is calling together the friends and the neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice together with me that I found my sheep that was lost!'" ⁷ I am saying to you that thus there will be joy in heaven over one sinner repenting, more than over the ninety-nine just persons who have no need of repentance." ⁸ Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she should ever be losing one drachma, is not lighting a lamp and sweeping the house and seeking carefully till she may be finding it? ⁹ And, finding it, she is calling together the friends and the neighbors, saying 'Rejoice together with me that I found the drachma which I lose!'" ¹⁰ Thus, I am saying to you, there is coming to be joy in the sight of the messengers of God over one sinner repenting." ¹¹ Now He said, "A certain man had two sons." ¹² And the younger of them said to the father, 'Father, give me the part of the estate accruing to me.' Now he apportioned to them the livelihood." ¹³ And, after not many days, gathering all together, the younger son travels into a far country and there dissipates his estate, living profligately." ¹⁴ Now, he spending all, a severe famine occurred in that country, and he begins to be in want." ¹⁵ And, going, he was joined to one of the citizens of that country, and he sends him into his fields to graze hogs." ¹⁶ And he yearned to be satisfied with the little carob pods which the hogs ate, and no one gave to him." ¹⁷ Now, coming to himself, he averred, 'How many of my father's hired men are being cloyed with bread, yet I am perishing here of famine!" ¹⁸ Rising, I will go to my father and declare to him, "Father, I sinned against heaven and in your sight." ¹⁹ No longer am I worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired men."'" ²⁰ And rising, he came to his father. "Now, at his being still far away, his father perceived him and has compassion, and running, falls on his neck and fondly kisses him." ²¹ Now the son said to him, 'Father, I sinned against heaven and in your sight. No longer am I worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired men.'" ²² Yet the father said to his slaves, 'Quick! Bring forth the first robe, and put it on him, and give him a ring for his hand and sandals for his feet." ²³ And bring the grain-fed calf, sacrifice it, and, eating, we may make merry, ²⁴ for this my son was dead and revives; he was lost and was found.' And they begin to make merry. ²⁵ Now his elder son was in the field, and, coming, as he nears the house, he hears music and choral dancing." ²⁶ And, calling one of the boys to him, he inquired to ascertain whatever this may be." ²⁷ Now he said to him that 'Your brother is arriving, and your father sacrifices the grain-fed calf, seeing that he got him back sound.'" ²⁸ Now he is indignant and would not enter. Yet his father, coming out, entreated him." ²⁹ Now he, answering, said to his father, 'Lo! so many years am I slaving for you, and I never passed by your precept, and you never give me a kid that I may make merry with my friends." ³⁰ Yet when this son of yours came, who is devouring your livelihood with prostitutes, you sacrifice for him the grain-fed calf!'" ³¹ Now he said to him, 'Child, you are always with me, and all mine is yours." ³² Yet we must be merry and rejoice, seeing that this your brother was dead and revives, and was lost and was found.'"

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax-collectors and notorious sinners were crowding around Him to listen to Him. ² And so the Pharisees and scribes continually grumbled, and said, "This fellow is welcoming notorious sinners, and even eating with them." ³ So He told them the following story: ⁴ "What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep, and if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the desert and continue to look for the lost one until he finds it? ⁵ And when he finds it, with joy he puts it on his shoulders, ⁶ and when he reaches home he calls in his friends and neighbors, and says to them, 'Rejoice with me, because I have found my lost sheep!' ⁷ Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinful person who repents than over ninety-nine upright people who do not need any repentance. ⁸ "Or what woman, if she has ten silver coins and loses one of them, does not light a lamp and sweep the house, and look carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it, she calls in her friends and neighbors, and says, 'Rejoice with me, because I have found the coin which I lost!' ¹⁰ Just so, I tell you, there is joy among the angels of God over one sinful person who repents!" ¹¹ Then He said: "There was a man who had two sons. ¹² The younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the share of the property that falls to me.' So he divided his property between them. ¹³ Not many days after that, the younger son got together all he had and went away to a distant country, and there he squandered all his property by living in dissipation. ¹⁴ After he had spent it all, a severe famine struck that country, and he began to suffer want. ¹⁵ So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, and he sent him to his fields to feed hogs. ¹⁶ And often he craved to fill himself with the carob-pods which the hogs were eating, and nobody gave him a bite. ¹⁷ Then he came to himself and said, 'How many of my father's hired men have more to eat than they need, and here I am dying of hunger! ¹⁸ I will get up and go to my father, and say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your opinion; ¹⁹ I no longer deserve to be called your son; just treat me like one of your hired men."' ²⁰ So he got up and went to his father. But, while he was still a long way off, his father saw him, and his heart was moved with pity for him, and he ran and fell on his neck, and kissed him affectionately. ²¹ His son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your opinion; I no longer deserve to be called your son; just treat me like one of your hired men.' ²² But his father said to his slaves, 'Bring out at once a robe, yes, the finest one, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and shoes on his feet; ²³ take the fattening calf and kill it, and let us feast and celebrate, ²⁴ because this son of mine was dead and has come to life, was lost and has been found!' So they began to celebrate. ²⁵ "Now his elder son was in the field. So, on coming in, as he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ Then he called one of the servant-boys and asked him what this meant. ²⁷ He said to him, 'Your brother has come back, and your father has killed the fattening calf, because he has gotten him back safe and sound.' ²⁸ So he became angry and would not go into the house. Then his father came out and began to plead with him. ²⁹ But he answered his father, 'See! I have served you all these years and have never disobeyed a command of yours, but you have never given me even a kid, so that I could celebrate with my friends. ³⁰ But when this son of yours arrives, who has eaten up your property with immoral women, you have killed for him the fattening calf.' ³¹ Then he said to him, 'My child, you have been with me all the time, and all I have is yours. ³² But we just had to celebrate and rejoice, because this brother of yours was dead and has come to life, was lost and has been found.'"

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax-farmers and sinners came near to give ear to him. ² And the Pharisees and scribes were angry, saying, This man gives approval to sinners, and takes food with them. ³ And he made a story for them, saying, ⁴ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if one of them gets loose and goes away, will not let the ninety-nine be in the waste land by themselves, and go after the wandering one, till he sees where it is? ⁵ And when he has got it again, he takes it in his arms with joy. ⁶ And when he gets back to his house, he sends for his neighbours and friends, saying to them, Be glad with me, for I have got back my sheep which had gone away. ⁷ I say to you that even so there will be more joy in heaven when one sinner is turned away from his wrongdoing, than for ninety-nine good men, who have no need of a change of heart. ⁸ Or what woman, having ten bits of silver, if one bit has gone from her hands, will not get a light, and go through her house, searching with care till she sees it? ⁹ And when she has it again, she gets her friends and neighbours together, saying, Be glad with me, for I have got back the bit of silver which had gone from me. ¹⁰ Even so, I say to you, There is joy among the angels of God, when one sinner is turned away from his wrongdoing. ¹¹ And he said, A certain man had two sons: ¹² And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me that part of your property which will be mine. And he made division of his goods between them. ¹³ And not long after, the younger son got together everything which was his and took a journey into a far-away country, and there all his money went in foolish living. ¹⁴ And when everything was gone, there was no food to be had in that country, and he was in need. ¹⁵ And he went and put himself into the hands of one of the people of that country, and he sent him into his fields to give the pigs their food. ¹⁶ And so great was his need that he would have been glad to take the pigs' food, and no one gave him anything. ¹⁷ But when he came to his senses, he said, What numbers of my father's servants have bread enough, and more, while I am near to death here through need of food! ¹⁸ I will get up and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have done wrong, against heaven and in your eyes: ¹⁹ I am no longer good enough to be named your son: make me like one of your servants. ²⁰ And he got up and went to his father. But while he was still far away, his father saw him and was moved with pity for him and went quickly and took him in his arms and gave him a kiss. ²¹ And his son said to him, Father, I have done wrong, against heaven and in your eyes: I am no longer good enough to be named your son. ²² But the father said to his servants, Get out the first robe quickly, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and shoes on his feet: ²³ And get the fat young ox and put it to death, and let us have a feast, and be glad. ²⁴ For this, my son, who was dead, is living again; he had gone away from me, and has come back. And they were full of joy. ²⁵ Now the older son was in the field: and when he came near the house, the sounds of music and dancing came to his ears. ²⁶ And he sent for one of the servants, questioning him about what it might be. ²⁷ And he said to him, Your brother has come; and your father has had the young ox put to death because he has come back safely. ²⁸ But he was angry and would not go in; and his father came out and made a request to him to come in. ²⁹ But he made answer and said to his father, See, all these years I have been your servant, doing your orders in everything: and you never gave me even a young goat so that I might have a feast with my friends: ³⁰ But when this your son came, who has been wasting your property with bad women, you put to death the fat young ox for him. ³¹ And he said to him, Son, you are with me at all times, and all I have is yours. ³² But it was right to be glad and to have a feast; for this your brother, who was dead, is living again; he had gone away and has come back.

MKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And all the tax-collectors and sinners drew near to Him in order to hear Him. ² And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receives sinners and eats with them. ³ And He spoke this parable to them, saying, ⁴ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after that which is lost until he finds it? ⁵ And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost. ⁷ I say to you that likewise joy shall be in Heaven over one sinner who repents, more than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she loses one drachma, does she not light a lamp and sweep the house, and seek carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And when she has found it, she calls her friends and her neighbors together, saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost. ¹⁰ Likewise I say to you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents. ¹¹ And He said, A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that is coming to me. And he divided his living to them. ¹³ And not many days afterward, the younger son gathered all together and went away into a far country. And there he wasted his property, living dissolutely. ¹⁴ And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land. And he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country. And he sent him into his fields to feed pigs. ¹⁶ And he was longing to fill his belly with the husks that the pigs ate, and no one gave to him. ¹⁷ And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father abound in loaves, and I perish with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and before you ¹⁹ and am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants. ²⁰ And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and before you, and am no more worthy to be called your son. ²² But the father said to his servants, Bring the best robe and put it on him. And put a ring on his hand and shoes on his feet. ²³ And bring the fattened calf here and kill it. And let us eat and be merry, ²⁴ for this my son was dead and is alive again, he was lost and is found. And they began to be merry. ²⁵ And his elder son was in the field. And as he came and drew near the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ And he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. ²⁷ And he said to him, Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has received him safe and sound. ²⁸ And he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and entreated him. ²⁹ And answering he said to his father, Lo, these many years I have served you, neither did I transgress your commandment at any time. And yet you never gave me a kid so that I might make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your living with harlots, you have killed for him the fattened calf. ³¹ And he said to him, Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours. ³² It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And all the tax collectors and sinners were coming near to Him, to hear Him. ² And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, This one receives sinners and eats with them. ³ And He spoke to them this parable, saying, ⁴ What man of you having a hundred sheep, and losing one of them, does not leave the ninety nine in the deserted place and go after the lost one until he finds it? ⁵ And finding it, he puts it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And coming to the house, he calls together the friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that had been lost. ⁷ I say to you that so is joy in Heaven over one sinner repenting, than over ninety nine righteous ones who have no need of repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she loses one drachma does not light a lamp and sweep the house, and look carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And finding it, she calls together the friends and neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I lost. ¹⁰ I say to you, so there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner repenting. ¹¹ And He said, A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to the father, Father give me that part of the property falling to me . And he divided the living to them. ¹³ And not many days after, gathering up all things, the younger son went away to a distant country. And there he wasted his property, living dissolutely. ¹⁴ But having spent all his things, a severe famine came throughout that country, and he began to be in need. ¹⁵ And going, he was joined to one of the citizens of that country. And he sent him into his fields to feed pigs. ¹⁶ And he longed to fill his stomach from the husks which the pigs ate, but no one gave to him. ¹⁷ But coming to himself he said, How many servants of my father have plenty of loaves, and I am perishing with famine. ¹⁸ Rising up, I will go to my father, and I will say to him, Father, I sinned against Heaven and before you, ¹⁹ and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired servants. ²⁰ And rising up, he came to his father. But he yet being far away, his father saw him and was moved with pity. And running, he fell on his neck and fervently kissed him. ²¹ And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and before you, and no longer am I worthy to be called your son. ²² But the father said to his slaves, Bring out the best robe and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand and sandals for his feet. ²³ And bring the fattened calf, slaughter and let us eat and be merry; ²⁴ for this son of mine was dead, and lived again, and was lost, and was found. And they began to be merry. ²⁵ But the older son was in a field. And having come, as he drew near to the house, he heard music and dances. ²⁶ And having called one of the children, he inquired what this may be. ²⁷ And he said to him, Your brother came, and your father killed the fattened calf, because he received him back in health. ²⁸ But he was angry and did not desire to go in. Then coming out, his father begged him. ²⁹ But answering, he said to the father, Behold, so many years I serve you, and never have I transgressed a command of you. And you never gave a goat to me, so that I might be merry with my friends. ³⁰ But when this son of yours came, the one devouring your living with harlots, you killed the fattened calf for him. ³¹ But he said to him, Child, you are always with me, and all of my things are yours. ³² But to be merry and to rejoice was right, for this brother of yours was dead, and lived again; and being lost, also he was found.

ECB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹
YAH SHUA ON THE LOST SHEEP
And all the customs agents and sinners approach to hear him: ² and the Pharisees and scribes murmur, wording, This one awaits sinners and eats with them. ³ And he words this parable to them, speaking, ⁴ What human of you, having a hundred sheep, and loses one of them, leaves not the ninety-nine in the wilderness and goes after the lost, until he finds it? ⁵ And when he finds it, he puts it on his shoulders, cheering: ⁶ and when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, wording to them, Rejoice with me; for I found my sheep - the lost. ⁷ I word to you, that likewise cheer becomes in the heavens over one sinner who repents - more than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance. ⁸
YAH SHUA ON THE LOST DRACHMA
Or what woman, having ten drachmas, whenever she loses one drachma, does not indeed light a candle and sweep the house and seeks carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it, she calls her friends and her neighbors together, wording, Rejoice with me; for I found the drachma I lost. ¹⁰ Likewise, I word to you, cheer becomes in the sight of the angels of Elohim over one sinner who repents. ¹¹
YAH SHUA ON THE LOST SON
And he says, A human has two sons: ¹² and the younger of them says to his father, Father, give me the portion of substance laid up. - and he distributes his subsistence to them. ¹³ And not many days after the younger son gathers all together and goes abroad to a distant region; and there squanders his substance with dissipative living ¹⁴ and he spends it all: and a mighty famine becomes in that region; and he begins to lack: ¹⁵ and he goes and joins himself to a citizen of that region: and he sends him into his fields to graze swine: ¹⁶ and he pants to fill his belly with the pods the swine eat: and no one gives him. ¹⁷ And he comes to himself, and says, How many hirelings of my father have super abundant bread, and I destruct with famine! ¹⁸ I rise and go to my father, and say to him, Father, I sinned against the heavens and in your sight; ¹⁹ and am no more worthy to be called your son: make me as one of your hirelings. ²⁰ And he rises, and comes to his father. and still being afar, his father sees him and has a sympathetic spleen and runs and falls on his neck and ardently kisses him: ²¹ - and the son says to him, Father, I sinned against the heavens and in your sight and am no more worthy to be called your son. ²² But the father says to his servants, Bring the preeminent stole and endue him; and give a finger ring on his hand and shoes on his feet; ²³ and bring the fatted calf and sacrifice; and eat, and rejoice: ²⁴ for this my son was dead, and relives; he was lost, and is found. - and they begin to rejoice. ²⁵ And his elder son is in the field: and as he comes and approaches the house he hears symphony and chorus: ²⁶ and he calls one of the lads, and asks what these be. ²⁷ And he says to him, Your brother is come; and your father sacrifices the fatted calf because he takes him safe and sound. ²⁸ - and he is wroth and wills to not enter. So his father comes out to console him: ²⁹ and he answers his father, saying, Behold, so many years I serve you, never ever passed I over your misvah: and yet you never ever gave me a goat to rejoice with my friends: ³⁰ but as soon as this - your son comes - who devoured your subsistence with whores, for him you sacrifice the fatted calf. ³¹ And he says to him, Child, you are ever with me; and all I have is yours. ³² It is necessary to rejoice, and cheer: for this your brother was dead and relives; and was lost, and is found.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now the tax collectors and worldly people were all gathering around Jesus to listen to Him. ² And the Pharisees and experts in the law of Moses both complained, saying, “This man welcomes worldly people and [even] eats with them.” ³ So, Jesus told them this parable, saying, ⁴ “Which one of you who has a hundred sheep, and loses one of them, would not leave the ninety-nine in a deserted place and go looking for the lost one until he finds it? ⁵ And when he finds it, he places it on his shoulders [i.e., to return it], and is so glad. ⁶ And when he gets home, he calls his friends and neighbors together and says to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I found my sheep that was lost.’ ⁷ I tell you that, in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinful person who repents [i.e., changes his heart and life], than over ninety-nine persons who do not need to repent. ⁸ Or what woman, who has ten silver coins [Note: These coins each amounted to about one day of a farm laborer’s pay, or about $60-$84 in 1994], and if she loses one of them, would not light a lamp, sweep the house and search for it diligently until she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I found the coin I had lost.’ ¹⁰ In the same way, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels [i.e., in heaven ?] over one sinful person who repents.” ¹¹ Then Jesus said, “A certain man had two sons. ¹² The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, [please] give me my share of your property that I have coming.’ So, the father divided up what he had to live on [with his two sons]. ¹³ And a few days later, this younger son gathered everything together and traveled to a distant country where he squandered his possessions in wild living. ¹⁴ And when he had spent everything [he had], a severe famine occurred in that country and he became desperate for food. ¹⁵ So, he went to work for one of the citizens of that country who sent him to his fields to feed his hogs. ¹⁶ Now he wanted to fill his stomach with the [carob] pods the hogs were eating, but no one gave him any [or perhaps, anything else]. ¹⁷ But when he came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have more than enough bread to eat, and here I am, dying from hunger! ¹⁸ I will get up and go to my father and say to him, Father, I have sinned against [the God of] heaven and against you. ¹⁹ I do not deserve to be called your son [anymore]. Consider me as [just] one of your hired servants.’ ²⁰ So, he got up and went to his father. But while he was still some distance [from the house], his father saw him and felt deep pity [for him], so ran and embraced him and kissed him [enthusiastically]. ²¹ Then the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against [the God of] heaven and against you. I do not deserve to be called your son.’ ²² But the father said to his slaves, ‘Quickly, bring out the best robe and put it on him. And put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. ²³ And bring the fattened calf, kill it and let us eat and enjoy ourselves. ²⁴ For my son here was dead [spiritually], but is [now] alive again. He was lost [from me], but [now] is found.’ And they began to celebrate. ²⁵ Now the father’s older son was [out] in the field. And when he came in and got close to the house he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ So, he called one of the servants to him and asked what was going on. ²⁷ And the servant said to him, ‘Your brother has come [home] and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he welcomed him back safe [from harm].’ ²⁸ But the older son got angry and refused to go into [the house]. So, his father came out and pleaded with him [i.e., to come in and join the celebration]. ²⁹ But he replied to his father, ‘Look, I have served you [as a slave] for all these years and have never disobeyed any of your orders, yet you never gave me [even] a young goat, so I could enjoy myself with my friends. ³⁰ But when this son of yours came [home], after having squandered all you gave him on prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.’ ³¹ And the father replied, ‘Son, you are always [here] with me, and everything I have is yours. ³² But it was [only] proper that we celebrate and have a good time, for this brother of yours was dead [spiritually], but is [now] alive again; he was lost [from me] but [now] is found.’”

ACV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax collectors and sinners were approaching him to hear him. ² And the Pharisees and the scholars murmured, saying, This man receives sinners and eats with them. ³ And he spoke this parable to them, saying, ⁴ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, does not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go for that which was lost until he finds it? ⁵ And when he finds it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he comes to the house, he calls together his men friends and his men neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost. ⁷ I say to you, that thus there will be joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous men who have no need of repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she lose one drachma, does not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek diligently until she finds it? ⁹ And when she has found it, she calls together her lady friends and lady neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me, because I found the drachma that I lost. ¹⁰ Thus I say to you, there becomes joy in the presence of the agents of God over one sinner who repents. ¹¹ And he said, A certain man had two sons, ¹² and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me. And he divided to them his living. ¹³ And not many days after, the younger son, having gathered all together, journeyed into a distant country, and there he squandered his wealth living recklessly. ¹⁴ And when he spent all, a mighty famine developed in that country, and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And having gone, he was joined to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he longed to fill his belly from the husks that the swine ate, and no man gave to him. ¹⁷ But when he came to himself, he said, How many hired men of my father's have abundance of loaves, but I am perishing with hunger. ¹⁸ After rising, I will go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight. ¹⁹ I am no more worthy to be called thy son. Make me as one of thy hired men. ²⁰ And having risen, he went to his father. But while he was still distant, afar off, his father saw him and felt compassion. And having ran, he fell on his neck, and kissed him much. ²¹ And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight. I am no more worthy to be called thy son. ²² But the father said to his bondmen, Bring forth the best robe and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and shoes for his feet. ²³ And having brought the fatted calf, kill it, and having eaten, we will be cheerful, ²⁴ because this my son was dead, and became alive again. And he was lost, and is found. And they began to be cheerful. ²⁵ But his elder son was in a field. And while coming, having approached the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ And having summoned one of the boys, he inquired what these things might be. ²⁷ And he said to him, Thy brother arrived, and thy father has killed the fatted calf, because he received him back healthy. ²⁸ But he was angry, and would not go in. Therefore, his father having come out, he called him. ²⁹ But having answered, he said to his father, Lo, so many years do I serve thee, and I never passed by a commandment of thine, and yet thou never gave me a goat that I might be merry with my friends. ³⁰ But when this thy son came, who has devoured thy living with harlots, thou killed for him the fatted calf. ³¹ And he said to him, Child, thou are always with me, and all my things are yours. ³² But it was needful to make merry and be glad, because this thy brother was dead, and became alive again, and was lost, and was found.

Common⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now the tax collectors and sinners were all drawing near to hear him. ² And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, "This man receives sinners and eats with them." ³ So he told them this parable: ⁴ "What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost until he finds it? ⁵ And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.' ⁷ I tell you that in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance. ⁸ "Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I had lost.' ¹⁰ In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents." ¹¹ Then he said: "There was a man who had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the share of property that falls to me.' So he divided his living between them. ¹³ Not many days after, the younger son gathered together all he had and took his journey into a far country, and there he squandered his property in loose living. ¹⁴ And when he had spent everything, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ So he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he would gladly have filled his stomach with the pods that the swine ate, and no one gave him anything. ¹⁷ But when he came to himself, he said, 'How many of my father's hired servants have bread enough and to spare, and here I perish with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father and will say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. ¹⁹ I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants."' ²⁰ And he arose and came to his father. But while he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion for him, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your son.' ²² But the father said to his servants, 'Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet. ²³ And bring the fatted calf and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; ²⁴ for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' And they began to be merry. ²⁵ "Now his older son was in the field. And as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ So he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. ²⁷ And he said to him, 'Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him safe and sound.' ²⁸ But he was angry and refused to go in. So his father came out and pleaded with him. ²⁹ But he answered his father, 'Behold, these many years I have been serving you, and I never disobeyed your command; yet you never gave me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your living with harlots, you killed for him the fatted calf!' ³¹ And he said to him, 'Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours. ³² It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for this your brother was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.'"

WEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming close to him to hear him. ² The Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, “This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them.” ³ He told them this parable. ⁴ “Which of you men, if you had one hundred sheep, and lost one of them, wouldn’t leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one that was lost, until he found it? ⁵ When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ When he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’ ⁷ I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance. ⁸ Or what woman, if she had ten drachma coins, if she lost one drachma coin, wouldn’t light a lamp, sweep the house, and seek diligently until she found it? ⁹ When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost.’ ¹⁰ Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting.” ¹¹ He said, “A certain man had two sons. ¹² The younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of your property.’ He divided his livelihood between them. ¹³ Not many days after, the younger son gathered all of this together and traveled into a far country.

1 G1161 Now G3956 all G5057 the tax collectors G2532 and G268 sinners G2258 were coming G1448 close G846 to him G191 to hear G846 him.

2 G2532 The G5330 Pharisees G2532 and G1122 the scribes G1234 murmured, G3754 saying, G3778 "This man G4327 welcomes G268 sinners, G2532 and G4906 eats G846 with them."

3 G2036 He told G846 them G3778 this G3850 parable.

4 G5101 "Which G1537 of G5216 you G444 men, G2192 if you had G1540 one hundred G4263 sheep, G2532 and G622 lost G1520 one G1537 of G846 them, G2641 G3756 wouldn't G2641 leave G1768 the ninety-nine G1722 in G2048 the wilderness, G2532 and G4198 go G1909 after G3588 the one that G622 was lost, G2193 until G2147 he found G846 it?

5 G2532 When G2147 he has found G2007 it, he carries G1909 it on G1438 his G5606 shoulders, G5463 rejoicing.

6 G2532 When G2064 he comes G1519 G3624 home, G4779 he calls together G5384 his friends G2532 and G1069 his neighbors, G3004 saying G846 to them, G4796 ‘Rejoice with G3427 me, G3754 for G2147 I have found G3450 my G4263 sheep G3588 which G622 was lost!'

7 G3004 I tell G5213 you G3754 that G3779 even so G2071 there will be G5479 more joy G1722 in G3772 heaven G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3748 who G2228 repents, than G1909 over G1768 ninety-nine G1342 righteous people G3748 who G2192 G5532 need G3756 no G3341 repentance.

8 G2228 Or G5101 what G1135 woman, G1437 if G2192 she had G1176 ten G1406 drachma coins, G1437 if G622 she lost G1520 one G1406 drachma coin, G681 G3780 wouldn't G681 light G3088 a lamp, G4563 sweep G3614 the house, G2532 and G2212 seek G1960 diligently G2193 until G3755 G2147 she found it?

9 G2532 When G2147 she has found G4779 it, she calls G4779 together G5384 her friends G2532 and G1069 neighbors, G3004 saying, G4796 ‘Rejoice with G3427 me, G3754 for G2147 I have found G1406 the drachma G3739 which G622 I had lost.'

10 G3779 Even so, G3004 I tell G5213 you, G1096 there is G5479 joy G1799 in the presence of G32 the angels G1799 of G2316 God G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner repenting."

11 G1161 He G2036 said, G5100 "A certain G444 man G2192 had G1417 two G5207 sons.

12 G2532 The G3501 younger G846 of them G2036 said G3962 to G3962 his father, G3962 ‘Father, G1325 give G3427 me G1911 my G3313 share G3776 of your property.' G2532 He G1244 divided G979 his livelihood G846 between them.

13 G2532 G3756 Not G4183 many G2250 days G3326 after, G3501 the younger G5207 son G4863 gathered G537 all G4863 of this together G2532 and G589 traveled G1519 into G3117 a far G5561 country. G1563 There G1287 he wasted G846 his G3776 property G811 with riotous G2198 living.

14 G1161 When G846 he G1159 had spent G3956 all G1096 of it, there arose G2478 a severe G3042 famine G2596 in G1565 that G5561 country, G2532 and G846 he G756 began G5302 to be in need.

15 G2532 He G4198 went G2853 and joined himself G1520 to G4177 one of the citizens G1565 of that G5561 country, G2532 and G3992 he sent G846 him G1519 into G846 his G68 fields G1006 to feed G5519 pigs.

16 G2532 He G1937 wanted G1072 to fill G846 his G2836 belly G575 with G2769 the husks G3739 that G5519 the pigs G2068 ate, G2532 but G3762 no one G1325 gave G846 him any.

17 G1161 But G2064 when he came G1519 to G1438 himself G2036 he said, G4214 ‘How many G3407 hired servants G3450 of my G3962 father's G740 have bread G4052 enough to spare, G1161 and G1473 I'm G622 dying G3042 with hunger!

18 G450 I will get up G4198 and go G4314 to G3450 my G3962 father, G2532 and G2046 will tell G846 him, G3962 "Father, G264 I have sinned G1519 against G3772 heaven, G2532 and G4675 in your G1799 sight.

19 G2532 I G1510 am G3765 no more G514 worthy G2564 to be called G4675 your G5207 son. G4160 Make G3165 me G5613 as G1520 one G4675 of your G3407 hired servants."'

20 G2532 "He G450 arose, G2064 and came G4314 to G1438 his G3962 father. G1161 But G846 while he G568 was G2089 still G3112 far off, G846 his G3962 father G1492 saw G846 him, G2532 and G4697 was moved with compassion, G2532 and G5143 ran, G1968 and fell G1909 on G846 his G5137 neck, G2532 and G2705 kissed G846 him.

21 G1161 The G5207 son G2036 said G846 to him, G3962 ‘Father, G264 I have sinned G1519 against G3772 heaven, G2532 and G1799 in G4675 your G1799 sight. G2532 I G1510 am G3765 no longer G514 worthy G2564 to be called G4675 your G5207 son.'

22 G1161 "But G3962 the father G2036 said G4314 to G846 his G1401 servants, G1627 ‘Bring out G4413 the best G4749 robe, G2532 and G1746 put G1746 it on G846 him. G2532 G1325 Put G1146 a ring G1519 on G846 his G5495 hand, G2532 and G5266 shoes G1519 on G4228 his feet.

23 G2532 G5342 Bring G4618 the fattened G3448 calf, G2380 kill G2532 it, and G5315 let us eat, G2532 and celebrate;

24 G3778 for G3778 this, G3450 my G5207 son, G2258 was G3498 dead, G2532 and G2532 is alive again. G2258 He was G622 lost, G2532 and G2147 is found.' G2532 They G756 began G2165 to celebrate.

25 G1161 "Now G846 his G4245 elder G5207 son G2258 was G1722 in G68 the field. G2532 G5613 As G2064 he came G1448 near G3614 to the house, G191 he heard G4858 music G2532 and G5525 dancing.

26 G2532 He G4341 called G1520 one G3816 of the servants G4441 to him, and asked G846 G5101 what G5023 was going G1498 on.

27 G1161 He G2036 said G3754 to him, G4675 ‘Your G80 brother G2240 has come, G2532 and G4675 your G3962 father G2380 has killed G4618 the fattened G3448 calf, G3754 because G618 he has received G846 him G5198 back safe and healthy.'

28 G1161 But G3710 he was angry, G2532 and G2309 would G3756 not G1525 go in. G3767 Therefore G846 his G3962 father G1831 came G1831 out, G3870 and begged G846 him.

29 G1161 But G611 he answered G3962 his father, G2036 G2400 ‘Behold, G5118 these many G2094 years G3928 I G1398 have served G4671 you, G2532 and G3928 I G3763 never G1785 disobeyed a commandment G4675 of yours, G2532 but G1325 you G3763 never G1325 gave G1698 me G2056 a goat, G2443 that G2165 I might celebrate G3326 with G3450 my G5384 friends.

30 G1161 But G3753 when G3778 this, G4675 your G5207 son, G2064 came, G3588 who G2719 has devoured G4675 your G979 living G3326 with G4204 prostitutes, G2380 you killed G4618 the fattened G3448 calf G846 for him.'

31 G1161 "He G2036 said G846 to him, G5043 ‘Son, G4771 you G1488 are G3842 always G3326 with G1700 me, G2532 and G3956 all G2076 that is mine G2076 is G4674 yours.

32 G1163 But it was appropriate G2165 to celebrate G2532 and G2165 be glad, G3754 for G3778 this, G4675 your G80 brother, G2258 was G3498 dead, G2532 and G326 is alive again. G2532 He G2258 was G622 lost, G2532 and G2147 is found.'"

NHEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming close to him to hear him. ² The Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, "This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them." ³ He told them this parable. ⁴ "Which one of you, if you had one hundred sheep, and lost one of them, would not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one that was lost, until he found it? ⁵ When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ When he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.' ⁷ I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance. ⁸ Or what woman, if she had ten drachma coins, if she lost one drachma coin, would not light a lamp, sweep the house, and seek diligently until she found it? ⁹ When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost.' ¹⁰ Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting." ¹¹ He said, "A certain man had two sons. ¹² The younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me my share of your property.'

AKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Then drew near to him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him. ² And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receives sinners, and eats with them. ³ And he spoke this parable to them, saying, ⁴ What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, does not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? ⁵ And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. ⁷ I say to you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repents, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. ⁸ Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, does not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it? ⁹ And when she has found it, she calls her friends and her neighbors together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost. ¹⁰ Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repents. ¹¹ And he said, A certain man had two sons: ¹² And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me.

1 G1161 Then G1448 drew near G3956 to him all G5057 the publicans G268 and sinners G191 for to hear him.

2 G5330 And the Pharisees G1122 and scribes G1234 murmured, G3004 saying, G3778 This G4327 man receives G268 sinners, G4906 and eats with them.

3 G2036 And he spoke G5026 this G3850 parable G3004 to them, saying,

4 G5101 What G444 man G2192 of you, having G1540 an hundred G4263 sheep, G622 if he lose G1520 one G2641 of them, does not leave G1768 the ninety G1768 and nine G2048 in the wilderness, G4198 and go G1909 after G622 that which is lost, G2193 until G2147 he find it?

5 G2147 And when he has found G2007 it, he lays G1909 it on G5606 his shoulders, G5463 rejoicing.

6 G2064 And when he comes G3624 home, G4779 he calls G4779 together G5384 his friends G1069 and neighbors, G3004 saying G4796 to them, Rejoice G2147 with me; for I have found G4263 my sheep G3588 which G622 was lost.

7 G3004 I say G3779 to you, that likewise G5479 joy G3772 shall be in heaven G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 that repents, G2228 more than G1909 over G1768 ninety G1768 and nine G1342 just G3748 persons, which G2192 need G5532 G3756 no G3341 repentance.

8 G2228 Either G5101 what G1135 woman G2192 having G1176 ten G1406 pieces G1406 of silver, G1437 if G622 she lose G3391 one G1406 piece, G681 does not light G3088 a candle, G4563 and sweep G3614 the house, G2212 and seek G1960 diligently G2193 till G2147 she find it?

9 G2147 And when she has found G4779 it, she calls G5384 her friends G1069 and her neighbors G4779 together, G3004 saying, G4796 Rejoice G2147 with me; for I have found G1406 the piece G3739 which G622 I had lost.

10 G3779 Likewise, G3004 I say G5479 to you, there is joy G1799 in the presence G32 of the angels G2316 of God G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 that repents.

11 G2036 And he said, G5100 A certain G444 man G2192 had G1417 two G5207 sons:

12 G3501 And the younger G2036 of them said G3962 to his father, G3962 Father, G1325 give G3313 me the portion G3776 of goods G1911 that falls G1244 to me. And he divided G979 to them his living.

13 G4183 And not many G2250 days G3326 after G3501 the younger G5207 son G4863 gathered G537 all G4863 together, G589 and took G589 his journey G1519 into G3117 a far G5561 country, G1563 and there G1287 wasted G3776 his substance G811 with riotous G2198 living.

14 G1159 And when he had spent G3956 all, G1096 there arose G2478 a mighty G3042 famine G5561 in that land; G756 and he began G5302 to be in want.

15 G4198 And he went G2853 and joined G1438 himself G4177 to a citizen G5561 of that country; G3992 and he sent G1519 him into G68 his fields G1006 to feed G5519 swine.

16 G1937 And he would fain G1072 have filled G2836 his belly G2769 with the husks G5519 that the swine G2068 did eat: G3762 and no G3762 man G1325 gave to him.

17 G2064 And when he came G1438 to himself, G2036 he said, G4214 How G4214 many G3407 hired G3407 servants G3962 of my father’s G740 have bread G4052 enough G4052 and to spare, G622 and I perish G3042 with hunger!

18 G450 I will arise G4198 and go G3962 to my father, G2046 and will say G3962 to him, Father, G264 I have sinned G1519 against G3772 heaven, G1799 and before you,

19 G1510 And am G3765 no G3765 more G514 worthy G2564 to be called G5207 your son: G4160 make G1520 me as one G3407 of your hired G3407 servants.

20 G450 And he arose, G2064 and came G3962 to his father. G2089 But when he was yet G3112 a great G3112 way G568 off, G3962 his father G1492 saw G4697 him, and had compassion, G5143 and ran, G1968 and fell G1909 on G5137 his neck, G2705 and kissed him.

21 G5207 And the son G2036 said G3962 to him, Father, G264 I have sinned G1519 against G3772 heaven, G1799 and in your sight, G1510 and am G3765 no G3765 more G514 worthy G2564 to be called G5207 your son.

22 G3962 But the father G2036 said G1401 to his servants, G1627 Bring G1627 forth G4413 the best G4749 robe, G1746 and put G1746 it on G1325 him; and put G1146 a ring G1519 on G5495 his hand, G5266 and shoes G1519 on G4228 his feet:

23 G5342 And bring G5602 here G4618 the fatted G3448 calf, G2380 and kill G5315 it; and let us eat, G2165 and be merry:

24 G3778 For this G5207 my son G3498 was dead, G326 and is alive G326 again; G622 he was lost, G2147 and is found. G756 And they began G2165 to be merry.

25 G1161 Now G4245 his elder G5207 son G68 was in the field: G2064 and as he came G1448 and drew near G3614 to the house, G191 he heard G4858 music G5525 and dancing.

26 G4341 And he called G1520 one G3816 of the servants, G4441 and asked G5101 what G5023 these G1498 things meant.

27 G2036 And he said G80 to him, Your brother G2240 is come; G3962 and your father G2380 has killed G4618 the fatted G3448 calf, G3754 because G618 he has received G5198 him safe G5198 and sound.

28 G3710 And he was angry, G2309 and would G1525 not go G3767 in: therefore G1831 came G3962 his father G3870 out, and entreated him.

29 G611 And he answering G2036 said G3962 to his father, G2400 See, G5118 these G5118 many G2094 years G1398 do I serve G3763 you, neither G3928 transgressed G3763 I at G3763 any G1785 time your commandment: G3763 and yet you never G1325 gave G2056 me a kid, G2165 that I might make G2165 merry G5384 with my friends:

30 G3753 But as soon G3778 as this G5207 your son G2064 was come, G3588 which G2719 has devoured G979 your living G4204 with harlots, G2380 you have killed G4618 for him the fatted G3448 calf.

31 G2036 And he said G5043 to him, Son, G1488 you are G3842 ever G3956 with me, and all G1699 that I have G4674 is yours.

32 G1163 It was meet G2165 that we should make G2165 merry, G5463 and be glad: G3778 for this G80 your brother G3498 was dead, G326 and is alive G326 again; G622 and was lost, G2147 and is found.

1 G1161 Then G2258 G1448 drew near G846 to him G3956 all G5057 the tax collectors G2532 and G268 sinners G191 to hear G846 him.

2 G2532 And G5330 the Pharisees G2532 and G1122 scribes G1234 murmured, G3754 saying, G3778 This man G4327 receives G268 sinners, G2532 and G4906 eats G846 with them.

3 G1161 And G2036 he spoke G3778 this G3850 parable G4314 to G846 them, G3004 saying,

4 G5101 Which G444 one G1537 of G5216 you, G2192 having G1540 a hundred G4263 sheep, G2532 if G622 he loses G1520 one G1537 of G846 them, G2641 does G3756 not G2641 leave G1768 the ninety and nine G1722 in G2048 the wilderness, G2532 and G4198 go G1909 after G3588 that which G622 is lost, G2193 until G2147 he finds G846 it?

5 G2532 And G2147 when he has found G2007 it, he lays G1909 it on G1438 his G5606 shoulders, G5463 rejoicing.

6 G2532 And G2064 when he comes G1519 G3624 home, G4779 he calls together G5384 his friends G2532 and G1069 neighbors, G3004 saying G846 to them, G4796 Rejoice with G3427 me; G3754 for G2147 I have found G3450 my G4263 sheep G3588 which G622 was lost.

7 G3004 I say G5213 to you, G3754 that G3779 likewise G5479 joy G2071 shall be G1722 in G3772 heaven G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 that repents, G2228 more than G1909 over G1768 ninety and nine G1342 righteous people, G3748 who G2192 G5532 need G3756 no G3341 repentance.

8 G2228 Or G5101 what G1135 woman G2192 having G1176 ten G1406 pieces of silver, G1437 if G622 she lose G1520 one G1406 piece, G681 does G3780 not G681 light G3088 a candle, G2532 and G4563 sweep G3614 the house, G2532 and G2212 seek G1960 diligently G2193 until G3755 G2147 she finds it?

9 G2532 And G2147 when she has found G4779 it, she calls G5384 her friends G2532 and G1069 her neighbors G4779 together, G3004 saying, G4796 Rejoice with G3427 me; G3754 for G2147 I have found G1406 the piece G3739 which G622 I had lost.

10 G3779 Likewise, G3004 I say G5213 to you, G1096 there is G5479 joy G1799 in the presence of G32 the angels G2316 of God G1909 over G1520 one G268 sinner G3340 that repents.

11 G1161 And G2036 he said, G5100 A certain G444 man G2192 had G1417 two G5207 sons:

12 G2532 And G3501 the younger G846 of them G2036 said G3962 to G3962 his father, G3962 Father, G1325 give G3427 me G3313 the portion G3776 of goods G1911 that falls G2532 to me. And G1244 he divided G846 to them G979 his living.

13 G2532 And G3756 not G4183 many G2250 days G3326 later G3501 the younger G5207 son G4863 gathered G537 all G4863 together, G589 and took his journey G1519 into G3117 a far G5561 country, G2532 and G1563 there G1287 wasted G846 his G3776 substance G811 with riotous G2198 living.

14 G1161 And G846 when he G1159 had spent G3956 all, G1096 there arose G2478 a mighty G3042 famine G2596 in G1565 that G5561 land; G2532 and G846 he G756 began G5302 to be in need.

15 G2532 And G4198 he went G2853 and joined himself G1520 to G4177 a citizen G1565 of that G5561 country; G2532 and G3992 he sent G846 him G1519 into G846 his G68 fields G1006 to feed G5519 pigs.

16 G2532 And G1937 he would wanted G1072 to fill G846 his G2836 belly G575 with G2769 the husks G3739 that G5519 the pigs G2068 ate: G2532 and G3762 no man G1325 gave G846 to him.

17 G1161 And G2064 when he came G1519 to G1438 himself, G2036 he said, G4214 How many G3407 hired servants G3450 of my G3962 father's G740 have bread G4052 enough and to spare, G1161 and G1473 I G622 perish G3042 with hunger!

18 G450 I will arise G4198 and go G4314 to G3450 my G3962 father, G2532 and G2046 will say G846 to him, G3962 Father, G264 I have sinned G1519 against G3772 heaven, G2532 and G1799 before G4675 you,

19 G2532 And G1510 am G3765 no more G514 worthy G2564 to be called G4675 your G5207 son: G4160 make G3165 me G5613 as G1520 one G4675 of your G3407 hired servants.

20 G2532 And G450 he arose, G2064 and came G4314 to G1438 his G3962 father. G1161 But G846 when he G568 was G2089 yet G3112 a great way off, G846 his G3962 father G1492 saw G846 him, G2532 and G4697 had compassion, G2532 and G5143 ran, G1968 and fell G1909 on G846 his G5137 neck, G2532 and G2705 kissed G846 him.

21 G1161 And G5207 the son G2036 said G846 to him, G3962 Father, G264 I have sinned G1519 against G3772 heaven, G2532 and G1799 in G4675 your G1799 sight, G2532 and G1510 am G3765 no more G514 worthy G2564 to be called G4675 your G5207 son.

22 G1161 But G3962 the father G2036 said G4314 to G846 his G1401 servants, G1627 Bring forth G4413 the best G4749 robe, G2532 and G1746 put G1746 it on G846 him; G2532 and G1325 put G1146 a ring G1519 on G846 his G5495 hand, G2532 and G5266 shoes G1519 on G4228 his feet:

23 G2532 And G5342 bring here G4618 the fatted G3448 calf, G2380 and kill G2532 it; and G5315 let us eat, G2165 and be merry:

24 G3778 For G3778 this G3450 my G5207 son G2258 was G3498 dead, G2532 and G2532 is alive again; G2258 he was G622 lost, G2532 and G2147 is found. G2532 And G756 they began G2165 to be merry.

25 G1161 Now G846 his G4245 elder G5207 son G2258 was G1722 in G68 the field: G2532 and G5613 as G2064 he came G1448 and drew near G3614 to the house, G191 he heard G4858 music G2532 and G5525 dancing.

26 G2532 And G4341 he called G1520 one G3816 of the servants, G4441 and asked G846 G5101 what G5023 these things G1498 meant.

27 G1161 And G2036 he said G3754 to him, G4675 Your G80 brother G2240 is come; G2532 and G4675 your G3962 father G2380 has killed G4618 the fatted G3448 calf, G3754 because G618 he has received G846 him G5198 safe and sound.

28 G1161 And G3710 he was angry, G2532 and G2309 would G3756 not G1525 go in: G3767 therefore G1831 came G846 his G3962 father G1831 out, G3870 and begged G846 him.

29 G1161 And G611 he answering G2036 said G3962 to G3962 his father, G2400 Behold, G5118 these many G2094 years G1398 do I serve G4671 you, G2532 neither G3928 transgressed I G3763 at any time G4675 your G1785 commandment: G2532 and G1325 yet you G3763 never G1325 gave G1698 me G2056 a kid, G2443 that G2165 I might make merry G3326 with G3450 my G5384 friends:

30 G1161 But G3753 as soon as G3778 this G4675 your G5207 son G2064 was come, G3588 which G2719 has devoured G4675 your G979 living G3326 with G4204 harlots, G2380 you have killed G846 for him G4618 the fatted G3448 calf.

31 G1161 And G2036 he said G846 to him, G5043 Son, G4771 you G1488 are G3842 ever G3326 with G1700 me, G2532 and G3956 all G1699 that I have G2076 is G4674 your.

32 G1163 It is good G2165 that we should make merry, G2532 and G5463 be glad: G3754 for G3778 this G4675 your G80 brother G2258 was G3498 dead, G2532 and G326 is alive again; G2532 and G2258 was G622 lost, G2532 and G2147 is found.

RYLT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And all the tax-gatherers and the sinners were coming near to him, to hear him, ² and the Pharisees and the scribes were murmuring, saying -- This one does receive sinners, and does eat with them.' ³ And he spake unto them this simile, saying, ⁴ 'What man of you having a hundred sheep, and having lost one out of them, does not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go on after the lost one, till he may find it? ⁵ and having found, he does lay it on his shoulders rejoicing, ⁶ and having come to the house, he does call together the friends and the neighbours, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I found my sheep -- the lost one. ⁷ 'I say to you, that so joy shall be in the heaven over one sinner reforming, rather than over ninety-nine righteous men, who have no need of reformation. ⁸ 'Or what woman having ten drachms, if she may lose one drachma, does not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek carefully till that she may find? ⁹ and having found, she does call together the female friends and the neighbours, saying, Rejoice with me, for I found the drachma that I lost. ¹⁰ 'So I say to you, joy does come before the messengers of God over one sinner reforming.' ¹¹ And he said, 'A certain man had two sons, ¹² and the younger of them said to the father, Father, give me the portion of the substance falling to me, and he divided to them the living. ¹³ 'And not many days after, having gathered all together, the younger son went abroad to a far country, and there he scattered his substance, living riotously; ¹⁴ and he having spent all, there came a mighty famine on that country, and himself began to be in want; ¹⁵ and having gone on, he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him to the fields to feed swine, ¹⁶ and he was desirous to fill his belly from the husks that the swine were eating, and no one was giving to him. ¹⁷ 'And having come to himself, he said, How many hirelings of my father have a superabundance of bread, and I here with hunger am perishing! ¹⁸ having risen, I will go on unto my father, and will say to him, Father, I did sin -- to the heaven, and before you, ¹⁹ and no more am I worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hirelings. ²⁰ 'And having risen, he went unto his own father, and he being yet far distant, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and having ran he fell upon his neck and kissed him; ²¹ and the son said to him, Father, I did sin -- to the heaven, and before you, and no more am I worthy to be called your son. ²² 'And the father said unto his servants, Bring forth the first robe, and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and sandals for the feet; ²³ and having brought the fatted calf, kill it, and having eaten, we may be merry, ²⁴ because this my son was dead, and did live again, and he was lost, and was found; and they began to be merry. ²⁵ 'And his elder son was in a field, and as, coming, he drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing, ²⁶ and having called near one of the young men, he was inquiring what these things might be, ²⁷ and he said to him -- Your brother is arrived, and your father did kill the fatted calf, because in health he did receive him back. ²⁸ 'And he was angry, and would not go in, therefore his father, having come forth, was entreating him; ²⁹ and he answering said to the father, Lo, so many years I do serve you, and never your command did I transgress, and to me you did never give a kid, that with my friends I might make merry; ³⁰ but when your son -- this one who did devour your living with harlots -- came, you did kill to him the fatted calf. ³¹ 'And he said to him, Child, you are always with me, and all my things are yours; ³² but to be merry, and to be glad, it was needful, because this your brother was dead, and did live again, he was lost, and was found.'

EJ2000⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ ¶ Then all the publicans and sinners drew near unto him to hear him. ² And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receives sinners and eats with them. ³ And he spoke this parable unto them, saying, ⁴ What man of you having a hundred sheep if he lose one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after that which is lost until he finds it? ⁵ And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost. ⁷ I say unto you that likewise there shall be more joy in heaven over one sinner that repents than over ninety-nine just persons, who need no repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she loses one drachma, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek diligently until she finds it? ⁹ And when she has found it, she calls her friends and her neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost. ¹⁰ Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repents. ¹¹ ¶ And he said, A certain man had two sons; ¹² and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of the estate that falls to me. And he divided unto them his living. ¹³ And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together and took his journey into a far country and there wasted his estate with riotous living. ¹⁴ And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want. ¹⁵ And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he longed to fill his belly with the husks that the swine ate, but no one gave them unto him. ¹⁷ And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have abundance of bread, and I perish here with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee ¹⁹ and am no longer worthy to be called thy son; make me as one of thy hired servants. ²⁰ And he arose and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight and am no longer worthy to be called thy son. ²² But the father said to his slaves, Bring forth the best robe and put it on him and put a ring on his hand and shoes on his feet ²³ and bring here the fatted calf and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; ²⁴ for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found. And they began to be merry. ²⁵ Now his elder son was in the field, and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ And he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. ²⁷ And he said unto him, Thy brother is come, and thy father has killed the fatted calf because he has received him safe and sound. ²⁸ And he was angry and would not go in, therefore his father came out and intreated him. ²⁹ And he, answering, said to his father, Behold, these many years I have served thee, neither at any time have I transgressed thy commandment; and yet thou never gavest me a kid that I might make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But as soon as this thy son was come who has devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed the fatted calf for him. ³¹ And he said unto him, Son, thou art always with me, and all that I have is thine. ³² It was necessary that we should make merry and be glad, for this thy brother was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.

CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax collectors and the sinners were drawing near to Him to hear Him. ² And the Pharisees and scribes were grumbling, saying, "This man receives sinners and eats with them." ³ And He told them this parable, saying: ⁴ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and loses one of them, does not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and goes after the one having been lost until he finds it? ⁵ And having found it, he puts it on his own shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And coming into the house, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!' ⁷ I say to you that likewise there shall be more joy in heaven over one sinner repenting than over ninety-nine righteous who need no repentance. ⁸ "Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I lost!' ¹⁰ Just so, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents." ¹¹ Then He said: "A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give to me the share of the wealth which falls to me.' So he divided to them his livelihood. ¹³ And not many days after, having gathered together all things, the younger son went on a journey to a distant country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living. ¹⁴ But when he had spent everything, there arose a severe famine throughout that country, and he began to be in need. ¹⁵ Then he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he was longing to fill his stomach with the carob pods which the swine were eating, and no one gave him anything. ¹⁷ But having come to himself, he said, 'How many of my father's hired servants have an abundance of bread, and I am perishing with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you, ¹⁹ and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants." ' ²⁰ And he arose and went to his father. But when he was still far off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion, and he ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you, and am no longer worthy to be called your son.' ²² But the father said to his servants, 'Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet. ²³ And bring the fatted calf here and slaughter it, and let us eat and be merry; ²⁴ for this my son was dead and came to life, and he was lost and was found.' And they began to be merry. ²⁵ Now his older son was in the field. And as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ And having summoned one of the servants, he was inquiring what these things might be. ²⁷ And he said to him, 'Your brother has come, and because he has received him back in good health, your father has killed the fatted calf.' ²⁸ But he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and began to plead with him. ²⁹ So he answered and said to his father, 'Lo, so many years I have been serving you and I never transgressed your commandment; and yet you never gave me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your livelihood with prostitutes, you slaughtered the fatted calf for him.' ³¹ And he said to him, 'Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours. ³² But it was necessary to be merry and to rejoice, because your brother was dead and is alive again, and was lost and is found.' "

WPNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Then all the tax collectors and ‘sinners’ were getting close to Him to hear Him. ² Well the Pharisees and the scribes started complaining, saying, “This man welcomes ‘sinners’ and eats with them”. ³ So He told them this parable, saying: ⁴ “What man among you, having a hundred sheep and losing one of them, does not abandon the ninety-nine in the wild and go after the lost one until he finds it? ⁵ And upon finding it he joyfully puts it on his shoulders. ⁶ And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost!’ ⁷ I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous ones who have no need of repentance. ⁸ “Or what woman having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it, she calls together her friends and neighbors saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin that I lost!’ ¹⁰ Just so, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” ¹¹ Then He said: “A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger one said to the father, ‘Father, give me the appropriate share of the estate’. So he divided the property between them. ¹³ Not many days later the younger son, having converted it all, journeyed to a distant country; and there he squandered his wealth living dissolutely. ¹⁴ But when he had spent it all, there was a severe famine throughout that country, and he began to be in need. ¹⁵ Then he went and attached himself to a citizen of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed pigs. ¹⁶ He would gladly have filled his stomach with the carob pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything. ¹⁷ But when he came to himself he said: ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have an abundance of bread, while I am dying of hunger! ¹⁸ I will get up and go to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you, ¹⁹ and I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired servants.’ ²⁰ “So he got up and went to his own father. But while he was still a good ways off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion—he ran and fell on his neck and kissed him! ²¹ Then the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you, and I am no longer worthy to be called your son’. ²² But the father said to his slaves: ‘Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet. ²³ And bring in and kill the fatted calf, and let us eat and celebrate; ²⁴ because this son of mine was dead and came to life; he was lost and is found!’ So they began to celebrate. ²⁵ “Now his older son was in the field; and as he came approaching the house he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ So he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. ²⁷ He said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him back safe and sound’. ²⁸ So he became angry and refused to go in. Then his father came out and began to plead with him. ²⁹ But in answer he said to the father: ‘Just look at how many years I have been serving you without ever transgressing your commandment; yet you never gave me even a young goat that I might celebrate with my friends. ³⁰ But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your livelihood with prostitutes, you killed the fatted calf for him!’ ³¹ So he said to him: ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours. ³² But it was right that we celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and came to life; he was lost and is found.’”

JMNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax collection contractors (or: governmental customs and tribute agents) and outcasts (cultural, religious and legal failures; those who by habit and lifestyle miss the mark; sinners) were progressively drawing near to Him to continue listening and hearing Him, ² Consequently both the Pharisees and the scribes (scholars; theologians of the Law) kept on privately grumbling, muttering complaint and discontent among themselves, one after another saying "This man is constantly receiving and giving welcoming-hospitality to outcasts (sinners; etc.) and is habitually eating with them." ³ So He spoke this illustration (parable) to them, presently saying, ⁴ "What person from among you folks, presently owning (possessing) one hundred sheep and then upon losing one of them, is not normally leaving the ninety-nine down within the wilderness (open range; desolate and uninhabited place) and then continuing on his way upon [the track of] the lost one – until he can (or: may) find it? ⁵ "Later, after finding [it], he proceeds to place (or: lay) it on his shoulders, amidst rejoicing! ⁶ "And so, upon coming into the house, he proceeds calling together [his] friends and neighbors, saying to them in turn, 'Celebrate (or: Be glad and caused to rejoice) together with me, because I have found my lost sheep!' ⁷ "I am now saying to you folks that in this way there will continue being joy within the heaven (or: the atmosphere) upon (or: on the occasion of) a progressive changing of the mind (or: a continued change in thinking and perspective, [accompanied by a return to the Lord]) by one outcast (habitual failure; person who constantly makes mistakes; sinner) – [more] than upon ninety-nine 'righteous and just folks' (or: people who are fair, equitable and in rightwised relationships in the Way pointed out) who continue having no need (or: necessity) of a change of mind [or a return to Yahweh]. ⁸ "Or then, what woman (or: wife) presently possessing (having) ten drachma coins, if she should lose one drachma, does not proceed to light a lamp and then continue sweeping the house and carefully looking and searching for [it] until she can (or: may) find it? ⁹ "And later, after finding [it], she proceeds calling together her women friends and neighbors, saying [to them] in turn, 'Celebrate (or: Be glad and caused to rejoice) together with me, because I have found the drachma which I lost!' ¹⁰ "In this way, I am now saying to you folks, joy is habitually birthed (or: constantly happens) in the sight and presence of God's agents (or: messengers) upon (or: on the occasion of) a progressive changing of the mind (or: a continued change in thinking and perspective, [accompanied by a return to the Lord]) by one outcast (habitual failure; person who constantly makes mistakes; sinner)." ¹¹ Now He said, "There was a certain man having two sons. ¹² "And the younger of them said to [his] father, 'Father, give to me the part of the estate (the existing substance; the property; the essence) normally falling upon [me].' So he apportioned (divided in two parts and distributed) to (or: for; between) them the livelihood (or: [the means of] living). [note: Jewish law allotted one-half as much to the younger as to the older] ¹³ "Later, after not many days, upon gathering everything together the younger son traveled from his homeland into a far country – and there he squandered (thoroughly scattered; dissipated) his substance for existing (or: essence; or: property; [portion of] the estate), constantly living as one having no chance of safety or preservation (one not being in a condition of health, wholeness or salvation; the disposition and life of one who is abandoned and reckless). ¹⁴ "Now after his expending everything (= using up all his money and possessions), a severe famine was birthed down on that country (or: occurred that extended throughout that region), and he himself began to be caused to progressively fall behind so as to be in want and need (= he became nearly destitute, facing starvation). ¹⁵ "And so, after making his way [from place to place around the area], he was joined (glued together) to one (= put in the service of a person) of the citizens of that country, and [that person] sent him into his fields to continue tending and grazing young pigs (hogs; swine). ¹⁶ "As time went on, he kept on having a strong desire to be fed, until satisfied, from out of the little horn-shaped pods of the carob trees which the young pigs were habitually eating – and still, no one was giving [anything] to him. ¹⁷ "Now at some point, coming into (or: to) himself, he affirmed, 'How many of my father's hired workers are surrounded by an abundance of bread – yet I, myself, am progressively perishing (loosing myself away) in a famine (or: by deprivation of food)! ¹⁸ "'Upon rising, I will continue traveling (journeying on) to my father, and then I will proceed saying to him, "O father, I failed to hit the target [leading] into the heaven (or: I missed my aim into the sky; or: I sinned in regard to heaven), as well as in your sight and before you. ¹⁹ "'"I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired workers."' ²⁰ "And so, upon rising, he went toward his father. Now while he continued being still a long way off (or: But during his progressive holding off yet far away), his father saw him and was moved with compassion. Then, after running, [his father] fell upon his neck and tenderly kissed him (or: expressed affection down on him). ²¹ "So the son said to him, 'O father, I failed to hit the target [leading] into the heaven (or: I missed my aim into the sky; or: I sinned in regard to heaven; or: I [sowed] failure into the atmosphere), as well as in your sight and before you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired workers.' ²² "But the father said to his slaves, 'Quickly! Bring out the first robe – the one that signifies the first arrangement with the first equipment and which places him in first place – and clothe him! Then give a ring into his hand, and sandals unto (= for) [his] feet. ²³ "'Next, you folks proceed in bringing the grain-fed young animal (e.g.: fat and choice calf): at once slaughter (or: sacrifice) [it], and, after eating, we can be put in a good and easy frame of mind (or: we should be given thoughts of well-being, cheer and celebration), ²⁴ "'because this one, my son, was existing being dead – and now he becomes back alive again (or: lives up, again); he was existing being one having been destroyed and lost – and now he is found!' And so they began to be progressively put in a good and easy frame of mind and were continually given thoughts of well-being and cheer. ²⁵ "Now his older son was continuing being in the midst of a field. Later, while progressively coming – as he drew near to the house – he heard [the sound] of a symphony (a concert of musical instruments) and choruses (or: = music and choral dancing). ²⁶ "And so, calling one of the servants to him, he began inquiring so as to ascertain what these things might be (or: mean). ²⁷ "So the man told him, 'Your brother is now arriving, and your father slaughtered the grain-fed young animal (= the fat and choice calf), seeing that he got him back being still sound and healthy.' ²⁸ "But now the [older brother] swelled with internal teeming, expressing his natural disposition with agitation and irritation (or: grew angry or enraged), and then was not willing (or: wanting; intending) to enter. So his father, upon coming out, began calling him to his side and continued entreating him. ²⁹ "Yet the [older brother], making a judging reply, said to his father, 'Look, and think about it! For so many years I constantly slaved for (or: worked as a slave to) you, and not even once did I transgress (go to the side of) your implanted goal (impartation of the finished product within; inward directive) – and yet not even once did you give to (or: for) me a kid (a young goat), so that I could be put in a good and easy frame of mind (or: should be given thoughts of well-being, cheer and celebration) with my friends. ³⁰ "'But when this son of yours came – the one eating down (or: devouring) your livelihood with prostitutes – you slaughtered (sacrificed) the grain-fed young animal (e.g.: fat and choice calf)!' ³¹ "So now the [father] said to him, 'Child, you yourself continue being with me always – and all my things continue being yours (or: everything [that is] mine is yours). ³² "'But it continued being binding and necessary to at once be in a good and easy frame of mind (or: be given thoughts of well-being, cheer and celebration) and to rejoice, because this one – your brother – was existing being dead, and now he comes to life; and was one having been lost and destroyed – and now he is found!'"

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ One day a large number of tax collectors and other outcasts came to listen to Jesus. ² Pharisees and teachers of the Law complained: »This man welcomes sinners and even eats with them!« ³ Then Jesus told them an illustration: ⁴ »If you have a hundred sheep and lose one of them, what do you do? You leave the other ninety-nine sheep in the pasture and go looking for the one you lost until you find it. ⁵ »When you find it you are happy. You carry it on your shoulders. ⁶ »You bring it back home. You invite your friends and neighbors together to celebrate. You say, ‘I am so happy I found my lost sheep.’ ⁷ »It is the same. I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine good people who do not need to repent. ⁸ »Suppose a woman with ten silver coins loses one of them. What does she do? She lights a lamp and sweeps her house. She looks carefully everywhere until she finds it. ⁹ »When she finds it she calls her friends and says let us celebrate. I am happy I found the lost coin. ¹⁰ »I tell you, it is the same for the angels of God who rejoice over one sinner who repents.« ¹¹ Jesus said: »A man had two sons. ¹² »The younger one said to him, Father I want my share of the property. He divided his property between his two sons. ¹³ »In a short time the younger son sold his share of the property. He left home with the money and traveled to a far away country where he wasted his money in reckless living. ¹⁴ »He spent everything! When a famine spread over that country he was left with nothing. ¹⁵ »He went to work for a citizen of that country who sent him to his farm to take care of the pigs. ¹⁶ He wanted to eat the Carob bean pods the pigs ate, but no one gave him anything to eat. ¹⁷ »Finally it dawned on him, my father’s hired workers have more than they can eat and I am about to starve! ¹⁸ »I will go to my father and say: ‘Father I have sinned against God and against you. ¹⁹ »I am not fit to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired workers.’ ²⁰ »He went to his father. He was a long way from home when his father saw him. His heart filled with pity. He ran and threw his arms around his son and kissed him. ²¹ »Father, the son said: ‘I have sinned against God and against you. I am not fit to be called your son.’ ²² »The father called his servants. He said: ‘Hurry and bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and shoes on his feet. ²³ »‘Get the prize calf and kill it. Let us celebrate with a feast! ²⁴ »‘My son was dead. Now he is alive. He was lost. Now he has been found. The feasting began.’ ²⁵ »The older son was out in the field. When he came close to the house he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ »He asked one of the servants what was happening? ²⁷ »Your brother returned home, the servant answered. Your father killed the prize calf because he has returned safely. ²⁸ »The older brother was so angry he would not enter the house. His father came out and begged him to come in. ²⁹ »He spoke to his father in anger. All these years I have worked like a slave for you. I have never disobeyed you. What have you given me?

ISV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ The Parable about the Faithful Shepherd
Now all the tax collectors and sinners kept coming to listen to Jesus. ² But the Pharisees and the scribes kept complaining, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.” ³ So he told them this parable:
⁴ “Suppose one of you has 100 sheep and loses one of them. He leaves the 99 in the wilderness and looks for the one that is lost until he finds it, doesn’t he? ⁵ When he finds it, he puts it on his shoulders and rejoices. ⁶ Then he goes home, calls his friends and neighbors together, and says to them, ‘Rejoice with me, because I’ve found my lost sheep!’ ⁷ In the same way, I tell you that there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over 99 righteous people who don’t need to repent.”
⁸ The Story of the Diligent Housewife“Or suppose a woman has ten coins and loses one of them. She lights a lamp, sweeps the house, and searches carefully until she finds it, doesn’t she? ⁹ When she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me, because I have found the coin that I lost!’ ¹⁰ In the same way, I tell you that there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”
¹¹ The Story of the Loving FatherThen Jesus said, “A man had two sons. ¹² The younger one told his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So the father divided his property between them. ¹³ A few days later, the younger son gathered everything he owned and traveled to a distant country. There he wasted it all on wild living. ¹⁴ After he had spent everything, a severe famine took place throughout that country, and he began to be in need. ¹⁵ So he went out to work for one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed pigs. ¹⁶ No one would give him anything, even though he would gladly have filled himself with the husks the pigs were eating.
¹⁷ “Then he came to his senses and said, ‘How many of my father’s hired men have more food than they can eat, and here I am starving to death! ¹⁸ I will get up, go to my father, and say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and you. ¹⁹ I don’t deserve to be called your son anymore. Treat me like one of your hired men.”’
²⁰ “So he got up and went to his father. While he was still far away, his father saw him and was filled with compassion. He ran to his son, threw his arms around him, and kissed him affectionately. ²¹ Then his son told him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and you. I don’t deserve to be called your son anymore.’ ²² But the father told his servants, ‘Hurry! Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. ²³ Bring the fattened calf and kill it, and let’s eat and celebrate! ²⁴ Because my son was dead and has come back to life. He was lost and has been found.’ And they began to celebrate.
²⁵ “Now the father’s older son was in the field. As he was coming back to the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ So he called to one of the servants and asked what was happening. ²⁷ The servant told him, ‘Your brother has come home, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he got him back safely.’
²⁸ “Then the older son became angry and wouldn’t go into the house. So his father came out and began to plead with him. ²⁹ But he answered his father, ‘Listen! All these years I’ve worked like a slave for you. I’ve never disobeyed a command of yours. Yet you’ve never given me so much as a young goat for a festival so I could celebrate with my friends. ³⁰ But this son of yours spent your money on prostitutes, and when he came back, you killed the fattened calf for him!’
³¹ “His father told him, ‘My child, you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. ³² But we had to celebrate and rejoice, because this brother of yours was dead and has come back to life. He was lost and has been found.’”

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax collectors and the sinners were drawing near to hear him. ² And both the Pharisees and the scribes were complaining, saying, "This man welcomes sinners and eats with them!" ³ So he told them this parable, saying, ⁴ "What man of you, having a hundred sheep and losing one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the grassland and go after the one that was lost until he finds it? ⁵ And when he* has found it,* he places it* on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he* returns to his* home, he calls together his* friends and neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost!' ⁷ I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need of repentance. ⁸ Or what woman who has ten drachmas, if she loses one drachma, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it?* ⁹ And when she* has found it,* she calls together her* friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me, because I have found the drachma that I had lost!' ¹⁰ In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents." ¹¹ And he said, "A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to his* father, 'Father, give me the share of the property that is coming to me.' So he divided his* assets between them. ¹³ And after not many days, the younger son gathered everything and* went on a journey to a distant country, and there he squandered his wealth by* living wastefully. ¹⁴ And after* he had spent everything, there was a severe famine throughout that country, and he began to be in need. ¹⁵ And he went and* hired himself out to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to tend pigs. ¹⁶ And he was longing to fill his stomach with* the carob pods that the pigs were eating, and no one was giving anything* to him. ¹⁷ "But when he* came to himself, he said, 'How many of my father's hired workers have an abundance _⌊of food_⌋,* and I am dying here from hunger! ¹⁸ I will set out and* go to my father and will say to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and _⌊in your sight_⌋!* ¹⁹ I am no longer worthy to be called your son! Make me like one of your hired workers.' ²⁰ And he set out and* came to his own father. But while* he was still a long way away, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran _⌊and embraced him_⌋* and kissed him. ²¹ And his* son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and _⌊in your sight_⌋!* I am no longer worthy to be called your son!' ²² But his* father said to his slaves, 'Quickly bring out the best robe and put it* on him, and put a ring on his finger* and sandals on his* feet! ²³ And bring the fattened calf—kill it* and let us eat and* celebrate, ²⁴ because this son of mine was dead, and is alive again! He was lost and is found!' And they began to celebrate. ²⁵ "Now his older son was in the field, and when he came and* approached the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ And he summoned one of the slaves and* asked what these things meant. ²⁷ And he said to him, 'Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has gotten him back healthy.' ²⁸ But he became angry and did not want to go in. So his father came out and* began to implore* him. ²⁹ But he answered and* said to his father, 'Behold, so many years I have served you, and have never disobeyed your command! And you never gave me a young goat so that I could celebrate with my friends! ³⁰ But when this son of yours returned—who has consumed your assets with prostitutes—you killed the fattened calf for him!' ³¹ But he said to him, 'Child, you are always with me, and _⌊everything I have belongs to you_⌋.* ³² But it was necessary to celebrate and to rejoice, because this brother of yours was dead, and is alive, and was lost, and is found!'"

BLB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax collectors and the sinners were drawing near to Him to hear Him. ² And both the Pharisees and the scribes were grumbling saying, “This man receives sinners and eats with them.” ³ And He spoke to them this parable, saying, ⁴ “What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, does not leave the ninety nine in the open field, and go after the one having been lost, until he finds it? ⁵ And having found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And having come to the house, he calls together the friends and the neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep, the one having been lost!’ ⁷ I say to you that in the same way there will be joy in heaven over one sinner repenting, rather than over ninety nine righteous ones who have no need of repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she should lose one drachma, does not light a lamp and sweep the house, and seek carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And having found it, she calls together the friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma that I lost.’ ¹⁰ Thus I say to you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner repenting.” ¹¹ And He said, “A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to the father, ‘Father, give to me the portion of the property falling to me.’ And he divided the property between them. ¹³ And not many days later, the younger son having gathered together all, went away into a distant country, and there he wasted his estate, living prodigally. ¹⁴ But of him having spent all, there arose a severe famine throughout that country, and he began to be in need. ¹⁵ And having gone, he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed pigs. ¹⁶ And he was longing to fill his belly from the pods that the pigs were eating, and no one was giving to him. ¹⁷ But having come to himself, he was saying, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have abundance of bread, but here I am perishing with hunger? ¹⁸ Having risen up, I will go to my father, and I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; ¹⁹ no longer am I worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your servants.”’ ²⁰ And having risen up, he went to his father. And he still being far distant, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and having run, fell upon his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; no longer am I worthy to be called your son.’ ²² And the father said to his servants, ‘Quickly bring out the best robe and clothe him, and give him a ring for his hand and sandals for his feet; ²³ and having brought the fattened calf, kill it, and having eaten, let us be merry. ²⁴ For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry. ²⁵ And his elder son was in the field, and while coming up, he drew near to the house; he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ And having called near one of the servants, he began inquiring what these things might be. ²⁷ And he said to him, ‘Your brother is come, and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has received him in good health.’ ²⁸ But he was angry, and was not willing to go in. And his father, having gone, was begging him. ²⁹ And answering, he said to his father, ‘Behold, so many years I serve you, and never did I disobey a commandment of yours; and never did you give to me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends. ³⁰ But when this son of yours came, the one having devoured your living with prostitutes, you have killed the fattened calf for him!’ ³¹ And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours. ³² But it was fitting to make merry and to rejoice, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; and he was lost and is found.’”

BSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax collectors and sinners were gathering around to listen to Jesus. ² So the Pharisees and scribes began to grumble: “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.” ³ Then Jesus told them this parable: ⁴ “What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep and loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the pasture and go after the one that is lost, until he finds it? ⁵ And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders, ⁶ comes home, and calls together his friends and neighbors to tell them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost sheep!’ ⁷ In the same way, I tell you that there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous ones who do not need to repent. ⁸ Or what woman who has ten silver coins and loses one of them does not light a lamp, sweep her house, and search carefully until she finds it? ⁹ And when she finds it, she calls together her friends and neighbors to say, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost coin.’ ¹⁰ In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.” ¹¹ Then Jesus said, “There was a man who had two sons. ¹² The younger son said to him, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them. ¹³ After a few days, the younger son got everything together and journeyed to a distant country, where he squandered his wealth in wild living. ¹⁴ After he had spent all he had, a severe famine swept through that country, and he began to be in need. ¹⁵ So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed the pigs. ¹⁶ He longed to fill his belly with the pods the pigs were eating, but no one would give him a thing. ¹⁷ Finally he came to his senses and said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have plenty of food? But here I am, starving to death! ¹⁸ I will get up and go back to my father and say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. ¹⁹ I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.”’ ²⁰ So he got up and went to his father. But while he was still in the distance, his father saw him and was filled with compassion. He ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. ²¹ The son declared, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ ²² But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. ²³ Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let us feast and celebrate. ²⁴ For this son of mine was dead and is alive again! He was lost and is found!’ So they began to celebrate. ²⁵ Meanwhile the older son was in the field, and as he approached the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶ So he called one of the servants and asked what was going on. ²⁷ ‘Your brother has returned,’ he said, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has him back safe and sound.’ ²⁸ The older son became angry and refused to go in. So his father came out and pleaded with him. ²⁹ But he answered his father, ‘Look, all these years I have served you and never disobeyed a commandment of yours. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. ³⁰ But when this son of yours returns from squandering your wealth with prostitutes, you kill the fattened calf for him!’ ³¹ ‘Son, you are always with me,’ the father said, ‘and all that is mine is yours. ³² But it was fitting to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’”

MLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now all the tax collectors and sinners were drawing near to him to hear him. ² And the Pharisees and the scribes were murmuring, saying, This man accepts sinners and eats together with them.

³ Now he spoke to them this parable, saying: ⁴ What man out of you, having a hundred sheep and having lost one out of them, does not leave the ninety nine in the wilderness and travel to what has been lost, until he should find it? ⁵ And having found it, he places it upon his own shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he comes to his house, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice together with me, because I have found my sheep which has been lost. ⁷ I say to you thus, that there will be joy in heaven over one repenting sinner, more than over ninety nine righteous ones, who have no need of repentance.
⁸ Or what woman having ten two-denarii coins, if she loses one two-denarii coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house, and seek carefully until she should find it? ⁹ And having found it, she calls together her friends and her neighbors, saying, Rejoice together with me, because I have found the two-denarii coin which I had lost. ¹⁰ Even so, I say to you, There becomes joy in the sight of the messengers of God over one repenting sinner.
¹¹ Now he said, A certain man had two sons. ¹² And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the part of the estate that would be put toward me. And he sections off his livelihood to them. ¹³ And not many days after, the younger son gathered it all together and went-abroad into a far region, and he squandered his estate with riotous living there. ¹⁴ Now having spent all, there became a mighty famine throughout that region, and he began to have lack of things. ¹⁵ And he traveled and joined himself to one of the citizens of that region, and he sent him into his field to feed swine. ¹⁶ And he was desiring to fill his belly from the carob pods that the swine were eating, and no one was giving anything to him. ¹⁷ Now having come to himself, he said, How many of my father’s hired servants are abounding, even of bread? But I am perishing here in famine! ¹⁸ After having risen up, I will be traveling to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned at heaven, and in your sight. ¹⁹ I am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants. \ulnone\nosupersub ²⁰ And standing up, he came to his father. But while he was still distant, far from him, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell upon his neck and kissed him. ²¹ But the son said to him, Father, I have sinned at heaven, and in your sight. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.
²² But the father said to his bondservants, Bring out the foremost robe and clothe him, and give him a ring for his hand and shoes for his feet; ²³ and when you have brought the fattened calf, sacrifice it, and when we eat it, we should be joyous. ²⁴ Because this one, my son, was dead and then lived again, and was perishing and then was found. And they began to be joyous. ²⁵ Now his elder son was in the field and as he is coming, he drew near to the house, and he heard harmony and dancers. ²⁶ And having called to him one of the young-servants, he was inquiring what these things might be.
²⁷ But he said to him, Your brother is coming, and your father has sacrificed the fattened calf because he has received him back healthy. ²⁸ But he was angry and was not willing to enter and therefore his father came out and was pleading him.
²⁹ But he answered and said to his father, Behold, I did serve you for so-many years, and I never passed over a commandment of yours, and yet you never gave me a young goat, in order that I might be joyous with my friends. ³⁰ But when this one, your son came, who has devoured your livelihood with prostitutes, you sacrificed the fattened calf for him.
³¹ Now he said to him, Child, you are always with me, and all the things which are mine are yours. ³² But we ought to be joyous and rejoice, because this one, your brother was dead, and then lived again, and was perishing and then was found.

Luther1545⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Es naheten aber zu ihm allerlei Zöllner und Sünder, daß sie ihn höreten. ² Und die Pharisäer und Schriftgelehrten murreten und sprachen: Dieser nimmt die Sünder an und isset mit ihnen. ³ Er sagte aber zu ihnen dies Gleichnis und sprach: ⁴ Welcher Mensch ist unter euch, der hundert Schafe hat, und so er der eines verlieret, der nicht lasse die neunundneunzig in der Wüste und hingehe nach dem verloren, bis daß er's finde? ⁵ Und wenn er's funden hat, so legt er's auf seine Achseln mit Freuden. ⁶ Und wenn er heimkommt, ruft er seine Freunde und Nachbarn und spricht zu ihnen: Freuet euch mit mir; denn ich habe mein Schaf funden, das verloren war. ⁷ Ich sage euch: Also wird auch Freude im Himmel sein über einen Sünder, der Buße tut, vor neunundneunzig Gerechten, die der Buße nicht bedürfen. ⁸ Oder welch Weib ist, die zehn Groschen hat, so sie der einen verlieret, die nicht ein Licht anzünde und kehre das Haus und suche mit Fleiß, bis daß sie ihn finde? ⁹ Und wenn sie ihn funden hat, rufet sie ihre Freundinnen und Nachbarinnen und spricht: Freuet euch mit mir; denn ich habe meinen Groschen funden, den ich verloren hatte. ¹⁰ Also auch, sage ich euch, wird Freude sein vor den Engeln Gottes über einen Sünder, der Buße tut. ¹¹ Und er sprach: Ein Mensch hatte zwei Söhne. ¹² Und der jüngste unter ihnen sprach zum Vater: Gib mir, Vater, das Teil der Güter, das mir gehört! Und er teilete ihnen das Gut. ¹³ Und nicht lange danach sammelte der jüngste Sohn alles zusammen und zog ferne über Land; und daselbst brachte er sein Gut um mit Prassen. ¹⁴ Da er nun all das Seine verzehret hatte, ward eine große Teurung durch dasselbige ganze Land, und er fing an zu darben. ¹⁵ Und ging hin und hängete sich an einen Bürger desselbigen Landes, der schickte ihn auf seinen Acker, die Säue zu hüten. ¹⁶ Und er begehrte seinen Bauch zu füllen mit Trebern, die die Säue aßen; und niemand gab sie ihm. ¹⁷ Da schlug er in sich und sprach: Wieviel Tagelöhner hat mein Vater, die Brot die Fülle haben, und ich verderbe im Hunger! ¹⁸ Ich will mich aufmachen und zu meinem Vater gehen und zu ihm sagen: Vater, ich habe gesündiget gegen den Himmel und vor dir ¹⁹ und bin fort nicht mehr wert, daß ich dein Sohn heiße; mache mich zu einem deiner Tagelöhner. ²⁰ Und er machte sich auf und kam zu seinem Vater. Da er aber noch ferne von dannen war, sah ihn sein Vater, und jammerte ihn, lief und fiel ihm um seinen Hals und küssete ihn. ²¹ Der Sohn aber sprach zu ihm: Vater, ich habe gesündiget gegen den Himmel und vor dir; ich bin fort nicht mehr wert, daß ich dein Sohn heiße. ²² Aber der Vater sprach zu seinen Knechten: Bringet das beste Kleid hervor und tut es ihm an; und gebet ihm einen Fingerreif an seine Hand und Schuhe an seine Füße; ²³ und bringet ein gemästet Kalb her und schlachtet es: lasset uns essen und fröhlich sein! ²⁴ Denn dieser mein Sohn war tot und ist wieder lebendig worden; er war verloren und ist funden worden. Und fingen an fröhlich zu sein. ²⁵ Aber der älteste Sohn war auf dem Felde, und als er nahe zum Hause kam, hörete er das Gesänge und den Reigen ²⁶ und rief zu sich der Knechte einen und fragte, was das wäre. ²⁷ Der aber sagte ihm: Dein Bruder ist kommen, und dein Vater hat ein gemästet Kalb geschlachtet, daß, er ihn gesund wieder hat. ²⁸ Da ward er zornig und wollte nicht hineingehen. Da ging sein Vater heraus und bat ihn. ²⁹ Er antwortete aber und sprach zum Vater: Siehe, so viel Jahre diene ich dir und habe dein Gebot noch nie übertreten, und du hast mir nie einen Bock gegeben, daß ich mit meinen Freunden fröhlich wäre. ³⁰ Nun aber dieser dein Sohn kommen ist, der sein Gut mit Huren verschlungen hat, hast du ihm ein gemästet Kalb geschlachtet. ³¹ Er aber sprach zu ihm: Mein Sohn, du bist allezeit bei mir, und alles, was mein ist, das ist dein. ³² Du solltest aber fröhlich und gutes Muts sein; denn dieser dein Bruder war tot und ist wieder lebendig worden; er war verloren und ist wieder funden.

1 G1161 Es naheten aber G191 zu G846 ihm G3956 allerlei G5057 Zöllner G2532 und G268 Sünder G846 , daß sie ihn höreten.

2 G2532 Und G5330 die Pharisäer G2532 und G1122 Schriftgelehrten G2532 murreten und G3004 sprachen G3778 : Dieser G4327 nimmt G268 die Sünder G4906 an und isset mit G846 ihnen .

3 G846 Er G3004 sagte G1161 aber G4314 zu G5026 ihnen dies G3850 Gleichnis G2036 und sprach :

4 G5101 Welcher G444 Mensch G622 ist G1537 unter G5216 euch G1520 , der G1540 hundert G4263 Schafe G2192 hat G2532 , und G846 so er G3756 der eines verlieret, der nicht G2641 lasse G1768 die neunundneunzig G1722 in G2048 der Wüste G4198 und hingehe G1909 nach G622 dem verloren G2193 , bis G2147 daß er‘s finde ?

5 G2532 Und G2147 wenn er‘s funden hat G2007 , so legt er‘s auf G1438 seine G5606 Achseln G1909 mit G5463 Freuden .

6 G2532 Und G4779 wenn er heimkommt, ruft G846 er seine G5384 Freunde G1069 und Nachbarn G3004 und spricht G1519 zu G4796 ihnen: Freuet euch G3427 mit mir G3754 ; denn G2147 ich habe G3450 mein G4263 Schaf G3588 funden, das G622 verloren G2064 war .

7 G3004 Ich sage G5213 euch G3779 : Also G5479 wird auch Freude G1722 im G3772 Himmel G2071 sein G1909 über G268 einen Sünder G1520 , der G3341 Buße G3340 tut G2228 , vor G1768 neunundneunzig G1342 Gerechten G3754 , die G1909 der G3756 Buße nicht G2192 bedürfen .

9 G2532 Und G2147 wenn sie ihn funden hat G5384 , rufet sie ihre Freundinnen G1069 und Nachbarinnen G3004 und spricht G4796 : Freuet euch G3427 mit mir G3754 ; denn G2147 ich habe G1406 meinen Groschen G3739 funden, den G622 ich verloren hatte .

10 G3779 Also G3004 auch, sage G5213 ich euch G1096 , wird G5479 Freude G1799 sein vor G32 den Engeln G2316 Gottes G1909 über G268 einen Sünder G1520 , der G3340 Buße tut .

11 G1161 Und G2036 er sprach G5100 : Ein G444 Mensch G2192 hatte G1417 zwei Söhne.

12 G2532 Und G3501 der jüngste G846 unter ihnen G2036 sprach G3962 zum Vater G1325 : Gib G3427 mir G3962 , Vater G3313 , das Teil G979 der Güter G1911 , das mir gehört G2532 ! Und G846 er G3776 teilete ihnen das Gut .

13 G2532 Und G3756 nicht G4183 lange G3501 danach sammelte der jüngste G537 Sohn alles G4863 zusammen G2532 und G589 zog G3117 ferne G5561 über Land G1563 ; und daselbst G1287 brachte G3776 er sein Gut G1519 um G3326 mit G811 Prassen .

14 G2532 Da G1565 er nun all das G846 Seine G1159 verzehret hatte G1096 , ward G2478 eine große G2596 Teurung durch G3956 dasselbige ganze G5561 Land G1161 , und G756 er fing G5302 an zu darben .

15 G2532 Und G4198 ging hin G2532 und G848 hängete sich G4177 an einen Bürger G5561 desselbigen Landes G1520 , der G3992 schickte G1519 ihn auf G846 seinen G68 Acker G1565 , die G5519 Säue G2853 zu G1006 hüten .

17 G2064 Da schlug G1519 er in G1438 sich G1161 und G2036 sprach G4214 : Wieviel G3407 Tagelöhner G3450 hat mein G3962 Vater G740 , die Brot G4052 die Fülle haben G1161 , und G1473 ich G622 verderbe G3042 im Hunger!

18 G450 Ich will mich aufmachen G2532 und G4314 zu G3450 meinem G3962 Vater G4198 gehen G2532 und G1519 zu G846 ihm G2046 sagen G3962 : Vater G3772 , ich habe gesündiget gegen den Himmel G1799 und vor G4675 dir

19 G2532 und G1510 bin G3765 fort nicht mehr G514 wert G5613 , daß G4675 ich dein G2564 Sohn heiße G4160 ; mache G3165 mich G1520 zu einem G4675 deiner G3407 Tagelöhner .

20 G2532 Und G846 er G1438 machte sich G450 auf G2532 und G2064 kam G4314 zu G3962 seinem Vater G846 . Da er G1161 aber G2089 noch G3112 ferne G568 von dannen war G1492 , sah G846 ihn G4697 sein G3962 Vater G2532 , und G5143 jammerte ihn, lief G2532 und G1968 fiel G846 ihm G1909 um G846 seinen G5137 Hals und küssete ihn.

21 G1161 Der Sohn aber G2036 sprach G1519 zu G846 ihm G3962 : Vater G1799 , ich habe gesündiget gegen G3772 den Himmel G2532 und G1799 vor G4675 dir G1510 ; ich bin G2532 fort nicht G3765 mehr G514 wert G4675 , daß ich dein G2564 Sohn heiße .

22 G1161 Aber G3962 der Vater G2036 sprach G4314 zu G1401 seinen Knechten G4413 : Bringet das beste G4749 Kleid G1627 hervor G2532 und G1746 tut es ihm an G2532 ; und G1325 gebet G1146 ihm einen Fingerreif G1519 an G846 seine G5495 Hand G2532 und G5266 Schuhe G846 an seine G4228 Füße;

23 G2532 und G4618 bringet ein gemästet G3448 Kalb G5342 her G2532 und G5315 schlachtet es: lasset uns essen G2165 und fröhlich sein!

24 G3754 Denn G3450 dieser mein G2258 Sohn war G3498 tot G2532 und G622 ist G2147 wieder lebendig worden G3778 ; er G2258 war G2532 verloren und G756 ist funden worden. Und fingen an G2165 fröhlich zu sein .

25 G1161 Aber G4245 der älteste G2258 Sohn war G1722 auf G68 dem Felde G2532 , und G5613 als G846 er G1448 nahe G3614 zum Hause G2064 kam G191 , hörete er G4858 das Gesänge G2532 und G5525 den Reigen

26 G2532 und G4341 rief zu sich G1520 der G3816 Knechte G4441 einen und fragte G5101 , was G5023 das G1498 wäre .

27 G1161 Der aber G2036 sagte G4675 ihm: Dein G80 Bruder G2240 ist kommen G2532 , und G4675 dein G3962 Vater G618 hat G4618 ein gemästet G3448 Kalb G2380 geschlachtet G3754 , daß G846 , er G5198 ihn gesund wieder hat.

28 G3767 Da G846 ward er G3710 zornig G1161 und G2309 wollte G3756 nicht G1525 hineingehen. Da ging G3962 sein Vater G1831 heraus G2532 und G3870 bat G846 ihn .

29 G611 Er antwortete G1161 aber G2532 und G2036 sprach G3962 zum Vater G2400 : Siehe G5118 , so viel G2094 Jahre G1398 diene G4671 ich dir G2532 und G4675 habe dein G1785 Gebot G3763 noch nie G3928 übertreten G1698 , und du hast mir G3763 nie G2056 einen Bock G1325 gegeben G2443 , daß G3326 ich mit G3450 meinen G5384 Freunden G2165 fröhlich wäre .

30 G1161 Nun aber G4675 dieser dein G2064 Sohn kommen G3778 ist, der G979 sein Gut G3326 mit G4204 Huren G2719 verschlungen hat G3588 , hast du G846 ihm G4618 ein gemästet G3448 Kalb G2380 geschlachtet .

31 G846 Er G1161 aber G2036 sprach G1699 zu ihm: Mein G5043 Sohn G4771 , du G1488 bist G3842 allezeit G3326 bei G1700 mir G2532 , und G2076 alles, was mein ist G3956 , das G4674 ist dein .

32 G5463 Du G1163 solltest G1161 aber G2532 fröhlich und G2165 gutes Muts sein G3754 ; denn G4675 dieser dein G80 Bruder G2258 war G3498 tot G2532 und G622 ist G326 wieder lebendig G2147 worden G3778 ; er G2258 war G2532 verloren und G2532 ist wieder funden.

Luther1912⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Es nahten aber zu ihm allerlei Zöllner und Sünder, daß sie ihn hörten. ² Und die Pharisäer und Schriftgelehrten murrten und sprachen: Dieser nimmt die Sünder an und isset mit ihnen. ³ Er sagte aber zu ihnen dies Gleichnis und sprach: ⁴ Welcher Mensch ist unter euch, der hundert Schafe hat und, so er der eines verliert, der nicht lasse die neunundneunzig in der Wüste und hingehe nach dem verlorenen, bis daß er's finde? ⁵ Und wenn er's gefunden hat, so legt er's auf seine Achseln mit Freuden. ⁶ Und wenn er heimkommt, ruft er seine Freunde und Nachbarn und spricht zu ihnen: Freuet euch mit mir; denn ich habe mein Schaf gefunden, das verloren war. ⁷ Ich sage euch: Also wird auch Freude im Himmel sein über einen Sünder, der Buße tut, vor neunundneunzig Gerechten, die der Buße nicht bedürfen. ⁸ Oder welches Weib ist, die zehn Groschen hat, so sie der einen verliert, die nicht ein Licht anzünde und kehre das Haus und suche mit Fleiß, bis daß sie ihn finde? ⁹ Und wenn sie ihn gefunden hat, ruft sie ihre Freundinnen und Nachbarinnen und spricht: Freuet euch mit mir; denn ich habe meinen Groschen gefunden, den ich verloren hatte. ¹⁰ Also auch, sage ich euch, wird Freude sein vor den Engeln Gottes über einen Sünder, der Buße tut. ¹¹ Und er sprach: Ein Mensch hatte zwei Söhne. ¹² Und der jüngste unter ihnen sprach zu dem Vater: Gib mir, Vater, das Teil der Güter, das mir gehört. Und er teilte ihnen das Gut. ¹³ Und nicht lange darnach sammelte der jüngste Sohn alles zusammen und zog ferne über Land; und daselbst brachte er sein Gut um mit Prassen. ¹⁴ Da er nun all das Seine verzehrt hatte, ward eine große Teuerung durch dasselbe ganze Land, und er fing an zu darben. ¹⁵ Und ging hin und hängte sich an einen Bürger des Landes; der schickte ihn auf seinen Acker, die Säue zu hüten. ¹⁶ Und er begehrte seinen Bauch zu füllen mit Trebern, die die Säue aßen; und niemand gab sie ihm. ¹⁷ Da schlug er in sich und sprach: Wie viel Tagelöhner hat mein Vater, die Brot die Fülle haben, und ich verderbe im Hunger! ¹⁸ Ich will mich aufmachen und zu meinem Vater gehen und zu ihm sagen: Vater, ich habe gesündigt gegen den Himmel und vor dir ¹⁹ und bin hinfort nicht mehr wert, daß ich dein Sohn heiße; mache mich zu einem deiner Tagelöhner! ²⁰ Und er machte sich auf und kam zu seinem Vater. Da er aber noch ferne von dannen war, sah ihn sein Vater, und es jammerte ihn, lief und fiel ihm um seinen Hals und küßte ihn. ²¹ Der Sohn aber sprach zu ihm: Vater, ich habe gesündigt gegen den Himmel und vor dir; ich bin hinfort nicht mehr wert, daß ich dein Sohn heiße. ²² Aber der Vater sprach zu seinen Knechten: Bringet das beste Kleid hervor und tut es ihm an, und gebet ihm einen Fingerreif an seine Hand und Schuhe an seine Füße, ²³ und bringet ein gemästet Kalb her und schlachtet's; lasset uns essen und fröhlich sein! ²⁴ denn dieser mein Sohn war tot und ist wieder lebendig geworden; er war verloren und ist gefunden worden. Und sie fingen an fröhlich zu sein. ²⁵ Aber der älteste Sohn war auf dem Felde. Und als er nahe zum Hause kam, hörte er das Gesänge und den Reigen; ²⁶ und er rief zu sich der Knechte einen und fragte, was das wäre. ²⁷ Der aber sagte ihm: Dein Bruder ist gekommen, und dein Vater hat ein gemästet Kalb geschlachtet, daß er ihn gesund wieder hat. ²⁸ Da ward er zornig und wollte nicht hineingehen. Da ging sein Vater heraus und bat ihn. ²⁹ Er aber antwortete und sprach zum Vater: Siehe, so viel Jahre diene ich dir und habe dein Gebot noch nie übertreten; und du hast mir nie einen Bock gegeben, daß ich mit meinen Freunden fröhlich wäre. ³⁰ Nun aber dieser dein Sohn gekommen ist, der sein Gut mit Huren verschlungen hat, hast du ihm ein gemästet Kalb geschlachtet. ³¹ Er aber sprach zu ihm: Mein Sohn, du bist allezeit bei mir, und alles, was mein ist, das ist dein. ³² Du solltest aber fröhlich und gutes Muts sein; denn dieser dein Bruder war tot und ist wieder lebendig geworden; er war verloren und ist wieder gefunden.

1 G1448 G2258 Es nahten G1161 aber G846 zu ihm G3956 allerlei G5057 Zöllner G2532 und G268 Sünder G846 , daß sie ihn G191 hörten .

2 G2532 Und G5330 die Pharisäer G2532 und G1122 Schriftgelehrten G1234 murrten G3004 und sprachen G3754 G3778 : Dieser G4327 nimmt G268 die Sünder G2532 an und G4906 isset G846 mit ihnen .

3 G2036 Er sagte G1161 aber G4314 zu G846 ihnen G5026 dies G3850 Gleichnis G3004 und sprach :

4 G5101 Welcher G444 Mensch G1537 ist unter G5216 euch G1540 , der G4263 Schafe G2192 hat G2532 und, so G1537 G846 er der G1520 eines G622 verliert G3756 , der nicht G2641 lasse G1768 die G1722 in G2048 der Wüste G2532 und G4198 hingehe G1909 nach G622 dem verlorenen G2193 , bis G846 daß er’s G2147 finde ?

5 G2532 Und G2147 wenn er’s gefunden G2007 hat, so legt G1909 er’s auf G1438 seine G5606 Achseln G5463 mit Freuden .

6 G2532 Und G2064 G3624 G1519 wenn er heimkommt G4779 , ruft G5384 er seine Freunde G2532 und G1069 Nachbarn G3004 und spricht G846 zu ihnen G4796 : Freuet G3427 euch mit mir G3754 ; denn G3450 ich habe mein G4263 Schaf G2147 gefunden G3588 , das G622 verloren war.

7 G3004 Ich sage G5213 euch G3754 : G3779 Also G2071 wird G5479 auch Freude G1722 im G3772 Himmel G2071 sein G1909 über G1520 einen G268 Sünder G3340 , der Buße G2228 G1909 G1768 tut, vor G1342 Gerechten G3748 , die G3341 der Buße G3756 nicht G5532 G2192 bedürfen .

8 G2228 Oder G5101 welches G1135 Weib G1176 ist, die zehn G1406 Groschen G2192 hat G1437 , so G3391 G1406 sie der einen G622 verliert G3780 , die nicht G3088 ein Licht G681 anzünde G2532 und G4563 kehre G3614 das Haus G2532 und G2212 suche G1960 mit Fleiß G2193 G3755 , bis G2147 daß sie ihn finde ?

9 G2532 Und G2147 wenn sie ihn gefunden G4779 hat, ruft G5384 sie ihre Freundinnen G2532 und G1069 Nachbarinnen G3004 und spricht G4796 : Freuet G3427 euch mit mir G3754 ; denn G1406 ich habe meinen Groschen G2147 gefunden G3739 , den G622 ich verloren hatte.

10 G3779 Also G3004 auch, sage G5213 ich euch G1096 , wird G5479 Freude G1096 sein G1799 vor G32 den Engeln G2316 Gottes G1909 über G1520 einen G268 Sünder G3340 , der Buße tut.

11 G1161 Und G2036 er sprach G5100 : Ein G444 Mensch G2192 hatte G1417 zwei G5207 Söhne .

12 G2532 Und G3501 der jüngste G846 unter ihnen G2036 sprach G3962 zu dem Vater G1325 : Gib G3427 mir G3962 , Vater G3313 , das Teil G3776 der Güter G1911 , das mir gehört G2532 . Und G1244 er teilte G846 ihnen G979 das Gut .

13 G2532 Und G3756 nicht G4183 G2250 lange G3326 darnach G4863 sammelte G3501 der jüngste G5207 Sohn G537 alles G4863 zusammen G589 und zog G3117 ferne G1519 über G5561 Land G2532 ; und G1563 daselbst G1287 brachte G846 er sein G3776 Gut G1287 um G811 G2198 mit Prassen .

14 G1161 Da G846 er G3956 nun all G1159 das Seine verzehrt G1096 hatte, ward G2478 eine große G3042 Teuerung G2596 durch G1565 dasselbe G5561 ganze Land G2532 , und G846 er G756 fing G5302 an zu darben .

15 G2532 Und G4198 ging G2853 hin und hängte sich G1520 an G4177 einen Bürger G1565 des G5561 Landes G2532 ; G3992 der schickte G846 ihn G1519 auf G846 seinen G68 Acker G5519 , die Säue G1006 zu hüten .

16 G2532 Und G1937 er begehrte G846 seinen G2836 Bauch G1072 zu füllen G575 mit G2769 Trebern G3739 , die G5519 die Säue G2068 aßen G2532 ; und G3762 niemand G1325 gab G846 sie ihm .

17 G1161 Da G2064 schlug G1519 er in G1438 sich G2036 und sprach G4214 : Wie viel G3407 Tagelöhner G3450 hat mein G3962 Vater G740 , die Brot G4052 die Fülle G1161 haben, und G1473 ich G622 verderbe G3042 im Hunger!

18 G450 Ich will mich aufmachen G4314 und zu G3450 meinem G3962 Vater G4198 gehen G2532 und G846 zu ihm G2046 sagen G3962 : Vater G264 , ich habe gesündigt G1519 gegen G3772 den Himmel G2532 und G1799 vor G4675 dir

19 G2532 und G1510 bin G3765 hinfort nicht mehr G514 wert G4675 , daß ich dein G5207 Sohn G2564 heiße G4160 ; mache G3165 mich G5613 zu G1520 einem G4675 deiner G3407 Tagelöhner!

20 G2532 Und G450 er machte G450 sich auf G2064 und kam G4314 zu G1438 seinem G3962 Vater G846 . Da er G1161 aber G2089 noch G3112 ferne G568 von dannen G1492 war, sah G846 ihn G846 sein G3962 Vater G2532 , und G4697 es jammerte G5143 ihn, lief G2532 und G1968 fiel G1909 ihm um G846 seinen G5137 Hals G2532 und G2705 küßte G846 ihn .

21 G5207 Der Sohn G1161 aber G2036 sprach G846 zu ihm G3962 : Vater G264 , ich habe gesündigt G1519 gegen G3772 den Himmel G2532 und G4675 vor G1799 dir G2532 ; G1510 ich bin G3765 hinfort nicht mehr G514 wert G4675 , daß ich dein G5207 Sohn G2564 heiße .

22 G1161 Aber G3962 der Vater G2036 sprach G4314 zu G846 seinen G1401 Knechten G1627 : Bringet G4413 das beste G4749 Kleid G2532 hervor und G1746 tut G846 es ihm G1746 an G2532 , und G1325 gebet G1146 ihm einen Fingerreif G1519 an G846 seine G5495 Hand G2532 und G5266 Schuhe G1519 an G4228 seine Füße,

23 G2532 und G5342 bringet G4618 ein gemästet G3448 Kalb G5342 her G2380 und schlachtet’s G5315 ; lasset uns essen G2532 und G2165 fröhlich sein!

24 G3754 denn G3778 dieser G3450 mein G5207 Sohn G2258 war G3498 tot G2532 und G326 ist wieder lebendig G2532 geworden; G2258 er war G622 verloren G2532 und G2147 ist gefunden G2532 worden. Und G756 sie fingen G2165 an, fröhlich zu sein.

25 G1161 Aber G846 der G4245 älteste G5207 Sohn G2258 war G1722 auf G68 dem Felde G2532 . Und G5613 als G1448 er nahe G3614 zum Hause G2064 kam G191 , hörte G4858 er das Gesänge G2532 und G5525 den Reigen;

26 G2532 und G4341 er rief G3816 zu sich der Knechte G1520 einen G4441 und fragte G5101 , was G5023 das G1498 wäre .

27 G1161 Der aber G2036 sagte G846 ihm G3754 : G4675 Dein G80 Bruder G2240 ist gekommen G2532 , und G4675 dein G3962 Vater G2380 hat G4618 ein gemästet G3448 Kalb G2380 geschlachtet G3754 , daß G846 er ihn G5198 gesund G618 wieder hat.

28 G1161 Da G3710 ward er zornig G2532 und G2309 wollte G3756 nicht G1525 hineingehen G3767 . Da G1831 ging G846 sein G3962 Vater G1831 heraus G3870 und bat G846 ihn .

29 G1161 Er aber G611 antwortete G2036 und sprach G3962 zum Vater G2400 : Siehe G5118 , so viel G2094 Jahre G1398 diene G4671 ich dir G4675 und habe dein G1785 Gebot G2532 noch G3763 nie G3928 übertreten G2532 ; und G1698 du hast mir G3763 nie G2056 einen Bock G1325 gegeben G2443 , daß G3326 ich mit G3450 meinen G5384 Freunden G2165 fröhlich wäre.

30 G3753 Nun G1161 aber G3778 dieser G4675 dein G5207 Sohn G2064 gekommen G3588 ist, der G4675 sein G979 Gut G3326 mit G4204 Huren G2719 verschlungen G2380 hat, hast G846 du ihm G4618 ein gemästet G3448 Kalb G2380 geschlachtet .

31 G1161 Er aber G2036 sprach G846 zu ihm G5043 : Mein Sohn G4771 , du G1488 bist G3842 allezeit G3326 bei G1700 mir G2532 , und G3956 alles G1699 , was G2076 mein ist, das ist G4674 dein .

32 G1163 Du solltest G1161 aber G2165 fröhlich G2532 und G5463 gutes G3754 Muts sein; denn G3778 dieser G4675 dein G80 Bruder G2258 war G3498 tot G2532 und G326 ist wieder lebendig G2532 geworden; er G2258 war G622 verloren G2532 und G2147 ist wieder gefunden .

ELB1871⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Es nahten aber zu ihm alle Zöllner und Sünder, ihn zu hören; ² und die Pharisäer und die Schriftgelehrten murrten und sprachen: Dieser nimmt Sünder auf und isset mit ihnen. ³ Er sprach aber zu ihnen dieses Gleichnis und sagte: ⁴ Welcher Mensch unter euch, der hundert Schafe hat und eines von ihnen verloren hat, läßt nicht die neunundneunzig in der Wüste und geht dem verlorenen nach, bis er es findet? ⁵ Und wenn er es gefunden hat, so legt er es mit Freuden auf seine Schultern; ⁶ und wenn er nach Hause kommt, ruft er die Freunde und die Nachbarn zusammen und spricht zu ihnen: Freuet euch mit mir, denn ich habe mein Schaf gefunden, das verloren war. ⁷ Ich sage euch: Also wird Freude im Himmel sein über einen Sünder, der Buße tut, mehr als über neunundneunzig Gerechte, welche der Buße nicht bedürfen. - ⁸ Oder welches Weib, die zehn Drachmen hat, zündet nicht, wenn sie eine Drachme verliert, eine Lampe an und kehrt das Haus und sucht sorgfältig, bis daß sie sie findet? ⁹ Und wenn sie sie gefunden hat, ruft sie die Freundinnen und Nachbarinnen zusammen und spricht: Freuet euch mit mir, denn ich habe die Drachme gefunden, die ich verloren hatte. ¹⁰ Also, sage ich euch, ist Freude vor den Engeln Gottes über einen Sünder, der Buße tut. ¹¹ Er sprach aber: Ein gewisser Mensch hatte zwei Söhne; ¹² und der jüngere von ihnen sprach zu dem Vater: Vater, gib mir den Teil des Vermögens, der mir zufällt.

3 G2036 Er sprach G1161 aber G4314 zu G846 ihnen G5026 dieses G3850 Gleichnis G3004 und sagte:

4 G5101 Welcher G444 Mensch G1537 unter G5216 euch, G1540 der hundert G4263 Schafe G2192 hat G2532 und G1520 eines G1537 von G846 ihnen G622 verloren hat, G2641 läßt G3756 nicht G1768 die neunundneunzig G1722 in G2048 der Wüste G2532 und G4198 geht G622 dem verlorenen G1909 nach, G2193 bis G846 er es G2147 findet?

5 G2532 Und G2147 wenn er es gefunden hat, G2007 so legt G5463 er es mit Freuden G1909 auf G1438 seine G5606 Schultern;

7 G3004 Ich sage G5213 G3754 euch: G3779 Also G5479 wird Freude G1722 im G3772 Himmel G2071 sein G1909 über G1520 einen G268 Sünder, G3340 der Buße tut, G2228 mehr als G1909 über G1768 neunundneunzig G1342 Gerechte, G3748 welche G3341 der Buße G3756 nicht G2192 G5532 bedürfen. -

11 G2036 Er sprach G1161 aber: G5100 Ein gewisser G444 Mensch G2192 hatte G1417 zwei G5207 Söhne;

12 G2532 und G3501 der jüngere G846 von ihnen G2036 sprach G3962 zu dem Vater: G3962 Vater, G1325 gib G3427 mir G3313 den Teil G3776 des Vermögens, G1911 der mir zufällt. G2532 Und G1244 er teilte G846 ihnen G979 die Habe.

15 G2532 Und G4198 er ging hin G2853 und hängte sich G1520 an einen G4177 der Bürger G1565 jenes G5561 Landes; G3992 der schickte G846 ihn G1519 auf G846 seine G68 Äcker, G5519 Schweine G1006 zu hüten.

16 G2532 Und G1937 er begehrte G846 seinen G2836 Bauch G1072 zu füllen G575 mit G2769 den Träbern, G3739 welche G5519 die Schweine G2068 fraßen; G2532 und G3762 niemand G1325 gab G846 ihm.

17 G1161 Als er aber G1519 zu G1438 sich selbst G2064 kam, G2036 sprach G4214 er: Wie viele G3407 Tagelöhner G3450 meines G3962 Vaters G4052 haben Überfluß G740 an Brot, G1473 ich G1161 aber G622 komme G622 hier um G3042 vor Hunger!

18 G450 Ich will mich aufmachen G4314 und zu G3450 meinem G3962 Vater G4198 gehen, G2532 und G846 will zu ihm G2046 sagen: G3962 Vater, G264 ich habe gesündigt G1519 gegen G3772 den Himmel G2532 und G1799 vor G4675 dir,

19 G2532 G1510 ich bin G3765 nicht mehr G514 würdig G4675 , dein G5207 Sohn G2564 zu heißen G4160 ; mache G3165 mich G5613 wie G1520 einen G4675 deiner G3407 Tagelöhner.

20 G2532 Und G450 er machte sich auf G2064 und ging G4314 zu G1438 seinem G3962 Vater. G846 Als er G1161 aber G2089 noch G3112 fern G568 war, G1492 sah G846 ihn G846 sein G3962 Vater G2532 und G4697 wurde innerlich bewegt G2532 und G5143 lief hin G1968 und fiel G1909 ihm um G846 seinen G5137 Hals G2532 und G2705 küßte G846 ihn sehr.

21 G5207 Der Sohn G1161 aber G2036 sprach G846 zu ihm: G3962 Vater, G264 ich habe gesündigt G1519 gegen G3772 den Himmel G2532 und G1799 vor G4675 G2532 dir, G1510 ich bin G3765 nicht mehr G514 würdig, G4675 dein G5207 Sohn G2564 zu heißen.

22 G3962 Der Vater G1161 aber G2036 sprach G4314 zu G846 seinen G1401 Knechten: G1627 Bringet G4413 das beste G4749 Kleid G1627 her G2532 und G1746 ziehet G846 es ihm G1746 an G2532 und G1325 tut G1146 einen Ring G1519 an G846 seine G5495 Hand G2532 und G5266 Sandalen G1519 an G4228 seine Füße;

23 G2532 und G5342 bringet G4618 das gemästete G3448 Kalb G5342 her G2380 und schlachtet G2532 es, und G5315 lasset uns essen G2532 und G2165 fröhlich sein;

24 G3754 denn G3778 dieser G3450 mein G5207 Sohn G2258 war G3498 tot G2532 und G326 G2532 ist wieder lebendig geworden, G2258 war G622 verloren G2532 und G2147 ist gefunden worden. G2532 Und G756 sie fingen an G2165 fröhlich zu sein.

25 G2258 Es war G1161 aber G846 sein G4245 älterer G5207 Sohn G1722 auf G68 dem Felde; G2532 und G5613 als G2064 er kam G3614 und sich dem Hause G1448 näherte, G191 hörte G4858 er Musik G2532 und G5525 Reigen.

26 G2532 Und G4341 er rief G1520 einen G3816 der Knechte G4341 herzu G2532 und G4441 erkundigte sich, G5101 was G5023 das G1498 wäre.

27 G1161 Der aber G2036 sprach G846 G3754 zu ihm: G4675 Dein G80 Bruder G2240 ist gekommen, G2532 und G4675 dein G3962 Vater G4618 hat das gemästete G3448 Kalb G2380 geschlachtet, G3754 weil G846 er ihn G5198 gesund G618 wieder erhalten hat.

28 G1161 Er aber G3710 wurde zornig G2532 und G2309 wollte G3756 nicht G1525 hineingehen. G846 Sein G3962 Vater G3767 aber G1831 ging hinaus G3870 und drang in G846 ihn.

29 G1161 Er aber G611 antwortete G2036 und sprach G3962 zu dem Vater: G2400 Siehe, G5118 so viele G2094 Jahre G1398 diene G4671 ich dir, G3763 und niemals G1785 habe ich ein Gebot G4675 von dir G3928 übertreten; G2532 und G1698 mir G1325 hast du G3763 niemals G2056 ein Böcklein G1325 gegeben, G2443 auf daß G3326 ich mit G3450 meinen G5384 Freunden G2165 fröhlich wäre;

30 G3753 da G1161 aber G3778 dieser G4675 dein G5207 Sohn G2064 gekommen ist, G3588 der G4675 deine G979 Habe G3326 mit G4204 Huren G2719 verschlungen hat, G846 hast du ihm G4618 das gemästete G3448 Kalb G2380 geschlachtet.

31 G1161 Er aber G2036 sprach G846 zu ihm: G5043 Kind, G4771 du G1488 bist G3842 allezeit G3326 bei G1700 mir, G2532 und G3956 all G1699 das Meinige G2076 ist G4674 dein.

32 G1163 Es geziemte G1161 sich aber, G2165 fröhlich zu sein G2532 und G5463 sich zu freuen; G3754 denn G3778 dieser G4675 dein G80 Bruder G2258 war G3498 tot G2532 und G326 ist wieder lebendig geworden, G2532 G2258 und G622 verloren G2532 und G2147 ist gefunden worden.

1 G1448 -G2258 Es nahten G1161 aber G846 zu ihm G3956 alle G5057 Zöllner G2532 und G268 Sünder G846 , ihn G191 zu hören;

2 G2532 und G5330 die Pharisäer G2532 und G1122 die Schriftgelehrten G1234 murrten G3004 -G3754 und sprachen G3778 : Dieser G4327 nimmt G268 Sünder G4327 auf G2532 und G4906 isset G846 mit ihnen .

3 G2036 Er sprach G1161 aber G4314 zu G846 ihnen G5026 dieses G3850 Gleichnis G3004 und sagte :

4 G5101 Welcher G444 Mensch G1537 unter G5216 euch G1540 , der hundert G4263 Schafe G2192 hat G2532 und G1520 eines G1537 von G846 ihnen G622 verloren hat G2641 , läßt G3756 nicht G1768 die neunundneunzig G1722 in G2048 der Wüste G2532 und G4198 geht G622 dem verlorenen G1909 nach G2193 , bis G846 er es G2147 findet ?

12 G2532 und G3501 der jüngere G846 von ihnen G2036 sprach G3962 zu dem Vater G3962 : Vater G1325 , gib G3427 mir G3313 den Teil G3776 des Vermögens G1911 , der mir zufällt G2532 . Und G1244 er teilte G846 ihnen G979 die Habe .

27 G1161 Der aber G2036 sprach G846 -G3754 zu ihm G4675 : Dein G80 Bruder G2240 ist gekommen G2532 , und G4675 dein G3962 Vater G4618 hat das gemästete G3448 Kalb G2380 geschlachtet G3754 , weil G846 er ihn G5198 gesund G618 wieder erhalten hat .

28 G1161 Er aber G3710 wurde zornig G2532 und G2309 wollte G3756 nicht G1525 hineingehen G846 . Sein G3962 Vater G3767 aber G1831 ging hinaus G3870 und drang in G846 ihn .

29 G1161 Er aber G611 antwortete G2036 und sprach G3962 zu dem Vater G2400 : Siehe G5118 , so viele G2094 Jahre G1398 diene G4671 ich dir G3763 , und niemals G1785 habe ich ein Gebot G4675 von dir G3928 übertreten G2532 ; und G1698 mir G3763 hast du niemals G2056 ein Böcklein G1325 gegeben G2443 , auf daß G3326 ich mit G3450 meinen G5384 Freunden G2165 fröhlich wäre;

30 G3753 da G1161 aber G3778 dieser G4675 dein G5207 Sohn G2064 gekommen G3588 ist, der G4675 deine G979 Habe G3326 mit G4204 Huren G2719 verschlungen hat G846 , hast du ihm G4618 das gemästete G3448 Kalb G2380 geschlachtet .

31 G1161 Er aber G2036 sprach G846 zu ihm G5043 : Kind G4771 , du G1488 bist G3842 allezeit G3326 bei G1700 mir G2532 , und G3956 all G1699 das Meinige G2076 ist G4674 dein .

32 G1163 Es geziemte G1161 sich aber G2165 fröhlich zu sein G2532 und G5463 sich zu freuen G3754 ; denn G3778 dieser G4675 dein G80 Bruder G2258 war G3498 tot G2532 und G326 ist wieder lebendig geworden G2258 -G2532 und G622 verloren G2532 und G2147 ist gefunden worden .

DSV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ En al de tollenaars en de zondaars naderden tot Hem, om Hem te horen. ² En de Farizeën en de Schriftgeleerden murmureerden, zeggende: Deze ontvangt de zondaars, en eet met hen. ³ En Hij sprak tot hen deze gelijkenis, zeggende: ⁴ Wat mens onder u, hebbende honderd schapen; en een van die verliezende, verlaat niet de negen en negentig in de woestijn, en gaat naar het verlorene, totdat hij hetzelve vinde? ⁵ En als hij het gevonden heeft, legt hij het op zijn schouders, verblijd zijnde. ⁶ En te huis komende, roept hij de vrienden en de geburen samen, zeggende tot hen: Weest blijde met mij; want ik heb mijn schaap gevonden, dat verloren was. ⁷ Ik zeg ulieden, dat er alzo blijdschap zal zijn in den hemel over een zondaar, die zich bekeert, meer dan over negen en negentig rechtvaardigen, die de bekering niet van node hebben. ⁸ Of wat vrouw, hebbende tien penningen, indien zij een penning verliest, ontsteekt niet een kaars, en keert het huis met bezemen, en zoekt naarstiglijk, totdat zij dien vindt? ⁹ En als zij dien gevonden heeft, roept zij de vriendinnen en de geburinnen samen, zeggende: Weest blijde met mij; want ik heb den penning gevonden, dien ik verloren had. ¹⁰ Alzo, zeg Ik ulieden, is er blijdschap voor de engelen Gods over een zondaar, die zich bekeert. ¹¹ En Hij zeide: Een zeker mens had twee zonen. ¹² En de jongste van hen zeide tot den vader: Vader, geef mij het deel des goeds, dat mij toekomt. En hij deelde hun het goed. ¹³ En niet vele dagen daarna, de jongste zoon, alles bijeenvergaderd hebbende, is weggereisd in een ver gelegen land, en heeft aldaar zijn goed doorgebracht, levende overdadiglijk. ¹⁴ En als hij het alles verteerd had, werd er een grote hongersnood in datzelve land, en hij begon gebrek te lijden. ¹⁵ En hij ging heen, en voegde zich bij een van de burgers deszelven lands; en die zond hem op zijn land om de zwijnen te weiden. ¹⁶ En hij begeerde zijn buik te vullen met den draf, dien de zwijnen aten; en niemand gaf hem dien. ¹⁷ En tot zichzelven gekomen zijnde, zeide hij: Hoe vele huurlingen mijns vaders hebben overvloed van brood, en ik verga van honger! ¹⁸ Ik zal opstaan en tot mijn vader gaan, en ik zal tot hem zeggen: Vader, ik heb gezondigd tegen den Hemel, en voor u; ¹⁹ En ik ben niet meer waardig uw zoon genaamd te worden; maak mij als een van uw huurlingen. ²⁰ En opstaande ging hij naar zijn vader. En als hij nog ver van hem was, zag hem zijn vader, en werd met innerlijke ontferming bewogen; en toe lopende, viel hem om zijn hals, en kuste hem. ²¹ En de zoon zeide tot hem: Vader, ik heb gezondigd tegen den Hemel, en voor u, en ben niet meer waardig uw zoon genaamd te worden. ²² Maar de vader zeide tot zijn dienstknechten: Brengt hier voor het beste kleed, en doet het hem aan, en geeft hem een ring aan zijn hand, en schoenen aan de voeten; ²³ En brengt het gemeste kalf, en slacht het; en laat ons eten en vrolijk zijn. ²⁴ Want deze mijn zoon was dood, en is weder levend geworden; en hij was verloren, en is gevonden! En zij begonnen vrolijk te zijn. ²⁵ En zijn oudste zoon was in het veld; en als hij kwam, en het huis genaakte, hoorde hij het gezang en het gerei, ²⁶ En tot zich geroepen hebbende een van de knechten, vraagde, wat dat mocht zijn. ²⁷ En deze zeide tot hem: Uw broeder is gekomen, en uw vader heeft het gemeste kalf geslacht, omdat hij hem gezond weder ontvangen heeft. ²⁸ Maar hij werd toornig, en wilde niet ingaan. Zo ging dan zijn vader uit, en bad hem. ²⁹ Doch hij, antwoordende, zeide tot den vader: Zie, ik dien u nu zo vele jaren, en heb nooit uw gebod overtreden, en gij hebt mij nooit een bokje gegeven, opdat ik met mijn vrienden mocht vrolijk zijn. ³⁰ Maar als deze uw zoon gekomen is, die uw goed met hoeren doorgebracht heeft, zo hebt gij hem het gemeste kalf geslacht. ³¹ En hij zeide tot hem: Kind, gij zijt altijd bij mij, en al het mijne is uwe. ³² Men behoorde dan vrolijk en blijde te zijn; want deze uw broeder was dood, en is weder levend geworden; en hij was verloren, en is gevonden.

1 G1161 En G3956 al G5057 de tollenaars G2532 en G268 de zondaars G2258 G5713 G1448 G5723 naderden G846 tot Hem G846 , om Hem G191 G5721 te horen.

2 G2532 En G5330 de Farizeen G2532 en G1122 de Schriftgeleerden G1234 G5707 murmureerden G3004 G5723 , zeggende G3754 : G3778 Deze G4327 G5736 ontvangt G268 de zondaars G2532 , en G4906 G5719 eet met G846 hen.

3 G1161 En G2036 G5627 Hij sprak G4314 tot G846 hen G5026 deze G3850 gelijkenis G3004 G5723 , zeggende:

4 G5101 Wat G444 mens G1537 onder G5216 u G2192 G5723 , hebbende G1540 honderd G4263 schapen G2532 ; en G1520 een G1537 van G846 die G622 G5660 verliezende G2641 G5719 , verlaat G3756 niet G1768 de negen en negentig G1722 in G2048 de woestijn G2532 , en G4198 G5736 gaat G1909 naar G622 G5756 het verlorene G2193 , totdat G846 hij hetzelve G2147 G5632 vinde?

5 G2532 En G2147 G5631 als hij het gevonden heeft G2007 G5719 , legt hij G1909 het op G1438 zijn G5606 schouders G5463 G5723 , verblijd zijnde.

6 G2532 En G1519 te G3624 huis G2064 G5631 komende G4779 G , roept hij G5384 de vrienden G2532 en G1069 de geburen G4779 G5719 samen G3004 G5723 , zeggende G846 tot hen G4796 G5645 : Weest blijde G3427 met mij G3754 ; want G3450 ik heb mijn G4263 schaap G2147 G5627 gevonden G3588 , dat G622 G5756 verloren was.

7 G3004 G5719 Ik zeg G5213 ulieden G3754 , dat G3779 er alzo G5479 blijdschap G2071 G5704 zal zijn G1722 in G3772 den hemel G1909 over G1520 een G268 zondaar G3340 G5723 , die zich bekeert G2228 , [meer] dan G1909 over G1768 negen en negentig G1342 rechtvaardigen G3748 , die G3341 de bekering G3756 niet G5532 van node G2192 G5719 hebben.

8 G2228 Of G5101 wat G1135 vrouw G2192 G5723 , hebbende G1176 tien G1406 penningen G1437 , indien G3391 zij een G1406 penning G622 G5661 verliest G681 G5719 , ontsteekt G3780 niet G3088 een kaars G2532 , en G4563 G5719 keert G3614 het huis G2532 [met] [bezemen], en G2212 G5719 zoekt G1960 naarstiglijk G2193 G3755 , totdat G2147 G5632 zij [dien] vindt?

9 G2532 En G2147 G5631 als zij [dien] gevonden heeft G4779 G , roept zij G5384 de vriendinnen G2532 en G1069 de geburinnen G4779 G5731 samen G3004 G5723 , zeggende G4796 G5645 : Weest blijde G3427 met mij G3754 ; want G1406 ik heb den penning G2147 G5627 gevonden G3739 , dien G622 G5656 ik verloren had.

10 G3779 Alzo G3004 G5719 , zeg Ik G5213 ulieden G1096 G5736 , is er G5479 blijdschap G1799 voor G32 de engelen G2316 Gods G1909 over G1520 een G268 zondaar G3340 G5723 , die zich bekeert.

11 G1161 En G2036 G5627 Hij zeide G5100 : Een zeker G444 mens G2192 G5707 had G1417 twee G5207 zonen.

12 G2532 En G3501 de jongste G846 van hen G2036 G5627 zeide G3962 tot den vader G3962 : Vader G1325 G5628 , geef G3427 mij G3313 het deel G3776 des goeds G1911 G5723 , dat [mij] toekomt G2532 . En G1244 G5627 hij deelde G846 hun G979 het goed.

13 G2532 En G3756 niet G4183 vele G2250 dagen G3326 daarna G3501 , de jongste G5207 zoon G537 , alles G4863 G5631 bijeenvergaderd hebbende G589 G5656 , is weggereisd G1519 in G3117 een ver G5561 [gelegen] land G2532 , en G1563 heeft aldaar G846 zijn G3776 goed G1287 G5656 doorgebracht G2198 G5723 , levende G811 overdadiglijk.

14 G1161 En G846 als hij G3956 het alles G1159 G5660 verteerd had G1096 G5633 , werd er G2478 een grote G3042 hongersnood G2596 in G1565 datzelve G5561 land G2532 , en G756 G5662 hij begon G5302 G5745 gebrek te lijden.

15 G2532 En G4198 G5679 hij ging heen G2853 G5681 , en voegde zich G1520 bij G4177 een van de burgers G1565 deszelven G5561 lands G2532 ; en G3992 G5656 die zond G846 hem G1519 op G846 zijn G68 land G5519 om de zwijnen G1006 G5721 te weiden.

16 G2532 En G1937 G5707 hij begeerde G846 zijn G2836 buik G1072 G5658 te vullen G575 met G2769 den draf G3739 , dien G5519 de zwijnen G2068 G5707 aten G2532 ; en G3762 niemand G1325 G5707 gaf G846 hem dien.

17 G1161 En G1519 tot G1438 zichzelven G2064 G5631 gekomen zijnde G2036 G5627 , zeide hij G4214 : Hoe vele G3407 huurlingen G3450 mijns G3962 vaders G4052 G5719 hebben overvloed G740 van brood G1161 , en G1473 ik G622 G5731 verga G3042 van honger!

18 G450 G5631 Ik zal opstaan G4314 en tot G3450 mijn G3962 vader G4198 G5695 gaan G2532 , en G846 ik zal tot hem G2046 G5692 zeggen G3962 : Vader G264 G5627 , ik heb gezondigd G1519 tegen G3772 den Hemel G2532 , en G1799 voor G4675 u;

19 G2532 En G1510 G5748 ik ben G3765 niet meer G514 waardig G4675 uw G5207 zoon G2564 G5683 genaamd te worden G4160 G5657 ; maak G3165 mij G5613 als G1520 een G4675 van uw G3407 huurlingen.

20 G2532 En G450 G5631 opstaande G2064 G5627 ging hij G4314 naar G1438 zijn G3962 vader G1161 . En G846 als hij G2089 nog G3112 ver G568 G5723 [van] [hem] was G1492 G5627 , zag G846 hem G846 zijn G3962 vader G2532 , en G4697 G5675 werd met innerlijke ontferming bewogen G2532 ; en G5143 G5631 [toe] lopende G1968 G5627 , viel G1909 hem om G846 zijn G5137 hals G2532 , en G2705 G5656 kuste G846 hem.

21 G1161 En G5207 de zoon G2036 G5627 zeide G846 tot hem G3962 : Vader G264 G5627 , ik heb gezondigd G1519 tegen G3772 den Hemel G2532 , en G1799 voor G4675 u G2532 , en G1510 G5748 ben G3765 niet meer G514 waardig G4675 uw G5207 zoon G2564 G5683 genaamd te worden.

22 G1161 Maar G3962 de vader G2036 G5627 zeide G4314 tot G846 zijn G1401 dienstknechten G1627 G5657 : Brengt [hier] voor G4413 het beste G4749 kleed G2532 , en G1746 G doet G846 het hem G1746 G5657 aan G2532 , en G1325 G5628 geeft G1146 hem een ring G1519 aan G846 zijn G5495 hand G2532 , en G5266 schoenen G1519 aan G4228 de voeten;

23 G2532 En G5342 G5660 brengt G4618 het gemeste G3448 kalf G2380 G5657 , en slacht G2532 het; en G5315 G5631 laat ons eten G2165 G5686 en vrolijk zijn.

24 G3754 Want G3778 deze G3450 mijn G5207 zoon G2258 G5713 was G3498 dood G2532 , en G326 G5656 is weder levend geworden G2532 ; en G2258 G5713 hij was G622 G5756 verloren G2532 , en G2147 G5681 is gevonden G2532 ! En G756 G5662 zij begonnen G2165 G5745 vrolijk te zijn.

25 G1161 En G846 zijn G4245 oudste G5207 zoon G2258 G5713 was G1722 in G68 het veld G2532 ; en G5613 als G2064 G5740 hij kwam G3614 , en het huis G1448 G5656 genaakte G191 G5656 , hoorde hij G4858 het gezang G2532 en G5525 het gerei,

26 G2532 En G4341 G5666 tot zich geroepen hebbende G1520 een G3816 van de knechten G4441 G5711 , vraagde G5101 , wat G5023 dat G1498 G5751 mocht zijn.

27 G1161 En G2036 G5627 deze zeide G846 tot hem G3754 : G4675 Uw G80 broeder G2240 G5719 is gekomen G2532 , en G4675 uw G3962 vader G4618 heeft het gemeste G3448 kalf G2380 G5656 geslacht G3754 , omdat G846 hij hem G5198 G5723 gezond G618 G5627 weder ontvangen heeft.

28 G1161 Maar G3710 G5681 hij werd toornig G2532 , en G2309 G5707 wilde G3756 niet G1525 G5629 ingaan G1831 G . Zo ging G3767 dan G846 zijn G3962 vader G1831 G5631 uit G3870 G5707 , en bad G846 hem.

29 G1161 Doch G611 G5679 hij, antwoordende G2036 G5627 , zeide G3962 tot den vader G2400 G5628 : Zie G1398 G5719 , ik dien G4671 u G5118 [nu] zo vele G2094 jaren G2532 , en G3763 heb nooit G4675 uw G1785 gebod G3928 G5627 overtreden G2532 , en G1698 gij hebt mij G3763 nooit G2056 een bokje G1325 G5656 gegeven G2443 , opdat G3326 ik met G3450 mijn G5384 vrienden G2165 G5686 mocht vrolijk zijn.

30 G1161 Maar G3753 als G3778 deze G4675 uw G5207 zoon G2064 G5627 gekomen is G3588 , die G4675 uw G979 goed G3326 met G4204 hoeren G2719 G5631 doorgebracht heeft G846 , zo hebt gij hem G4618 het gemeste G3448 kalf G2380 G5656 geslacht.

31 G1161 En G2036 G5627 hij zeide G846 tot hem G5043 : Kind G4771 , gij G1488 G5748 zijt G3842 altijd G3326 bij G1700 mij G2532 , en G3956 al G1699 het mijne G2076 G5748 is G4674 uwe.

32 G1163 G5713 Men behoorde G1161 dan G2165 G5683 vrolijk G2532 en G5463 G5646 blijde te zijn G3754 ; want G3778 deze G4675 uw G80 broeder G2258 G5713 was G3498 dood G2532 , en G326 G5656 is weder levend geworden G2532 ; en G2258 G5713 hij was G622 G5756 verloren G2532 , en G2147 G5681 is gevonden.

Et tous les publicains et les pécheurs s'approchaient de lui pour l'entendre. ² Et les pharisiens et les scribes murmuraient, disant: Celui-ci reçoit des pécheurs, et mange avec eux. ³ Et il leur dit cette parabole, disant: ⁴ Quel est l'homme d'entre vous, qui, ayant cent brebis et en ayant perdu une, ne laisse les quatre-vingt-dix-neuf au désert, et ne s'en aille après celle qui est perdue, jusqu'à ce qu'il l'ait trouvée? ⁵ et l'ayant trouvée, il la met sur ses propres épaules, bien joyeux; ⁶ et, étant de retour à la maison, il appelle les amis et les voisins, leur disant: Réjouissez-vous avec moi, car j'ai trouvé ma brebis perdue. ⁷ Je vous dis, qu'ainsi il y aura de la joie au ciel pour un seul pécheur qui se repent, plus que pour quatre-vingt-dix-neuf justes qui n'ont pas besoin de repentance. ⁸ Ou quelle est la femme, qui, ayant dix drachmes, si elle perd une drachme, n'allume la lampe et ne balaye la maison, et ne cherche diligemment jusqu'à ce qu'elle l'ait trouvée? ⁹ et l'ayant trouvée, elle assemble les amies et les voisines, disant: Réjouissez-vous avec moi, car j'ai trouvé la drachme que j'avais perdue. ¹⁰ Ainsi, je vous dis, il y a de la joie devant les anges de Dieu pour un seul pécheur qui se repent. ¹¹
Et il dit: Un homme avait deux fils; ¹² et le plus jeune d'entre eux dit à son père: Père, donne-moi la part du bien qui me revient. Et il leur partagea son bien. ¹³ Et peu de jours après, le plus jeune fils, ayant tout ramassé, s'en alla dehors en un pays éloigné; et là il dissipa son bien en vivant dans la débauche. ¹⁴ après qu'il eut tout dépensé, une grande famine survint dans ce pays-là; et il commença d'être dans le besoin. ¹⁵ Et il s'en alla et se joignit à l'un des citoyens de ce pays-là, et celui-ci l'envoya dans ses champs pour paître des pourceaux. ¹⁶ Et il désirait de remplir son ventre des gousses que les pourceaux mangeaient; et personne ne lui donnait rien. ¹⁷ Et étant revenu à lui-même, il dit: Combien de mercenaires de mon père ont du pain en abondance, et moi je péris ici de faim! ¹⁸ Je me lèverai et je m'en irai vers mon père, et je lui dirai: Père, j'ai péché contre le ciel et devant toi; ¹⁹ je ne suis plus digne d'être appelé ton fils; traite-moi comme l'un de tes mercenaires. ²⁰ Et se levant, il vint vers son père. Et comme il était encore loin, son père le vit et fut ému de compassion, et, courant à lui, se jeta à son cou et le couvrit de baisers. ²¹ Et le fils lui dit: Père, j'ai péché contre le ciel et devant toi; je ne suis plus digne d'être appelé ton fils. ²² Mais le père dit à ses esclaves: Apportez dehors la plus belle robe, et l'en revêtez; et mettez un anneau à sa main et des sandales à ses pieds; ²³ et amenez le veau gras et tuez-le; et mangeons et faisons bonne chère; ²⁴ car mon fils que voici était mort, et il est revenu à la vie; il était perdu, et il est retrouvé. Et ils se mirent à faire bonne chère. ²⁵ Or son fils aîné était aux champs; et comme il revenait et qu'il approchait de la maison, il entendit la mélodie et les danses; ²⁶ et, ayant appelé l'un des serviteurs, il demanda ce que c'était. ²⁷ Et il lui dit: Ton frère est venu, et ton père a tué le veau gras, parce qu'il l'a recouvré sain et sauf. ²⁸ Et il se mit en colère et ne voulait pas entrer. Et son père étant sorti, le pria. ²⁹ Mais lui, répondant, dit à son père: Voici tant d'années que je te sers, et jamais je n'ai transgressé ton commandement; et tu ne m'as jamais donné un chevreau pour faire bonne chère avec mes amis; ³⁰ mais quand celui-ci, ton fils, qui a mangé ton bien avec des prostituées, est venu, tu as tué pour lui le veau gras. ³¹ Et il luit dit: Mon enfant, tu es toujours avec moi, et tout ce qui est à moi est à toi; ³² mais il fallait faire bonne chère et se réjouir; car celui-ci, ton frère, était mort, et il est revenu à la vie; il était perdu, et il est retrouvé.

Martin⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Or tous les péagers et les gens de mauvaise vie s'approchaient de lui pour l'entendre. ² Mais les Pharisiens et les Scribes murmuraient, disant : celui-ci reçoit les gens de mauvaise vie, et mange avec eux. ³ Mais il leur proposa cette parabole, disant : ⁴ Qui est l'homme d'entre vous qui ayant cent brebis, s'il en perd une, ne laisse les quatre-vingt-dix-neuf au désert, et ne s'en aille après celle qui est perdue, jusqu'à ce qu'il l'ait trouvée; ⁵ Et qui l'ayant trouvée ne la mette sur ses épaules bien joyeux; ⁶ Et étant de retour en sa maison, n'appelle ses amis et ses voisins, et ne leur dise : réjouissez-vous avec moi; car j'ai trouvé ma brebis qui était perdue ? ⁷ Je vous dis, qu'il y aura de même de la joie au ciel pour un seul pécheur qui vient à se repentir, plus que pour quatre-vingt-dix-neuf justes, qui n'ont pas besoin de repentance. ⁸ Ou qui est la femme qui ayant dix drachmes, si elle perd une drachme, n'allume la chandelle, et ne balaye la maison, et ne la cherche diligemment, jusqu'à ce qu'elle l'ait trouvée; ⁹ Et qui après l'avoir trouvé, n'appelle ses amis et ses voisines, en leur disant : réjouissez-vous avec moi; car j'ai trouvé la drachme que j'avais perdue ? ¹⁰ Ainsi je vous dis qu'il y a de la joie devant les Anges de Dieu pour un seul pécheur qui vient à se repentir. ¹¹ Il leur dit aussi : un homme avait deux fils; ¹² Et le plus jeune dit à son père : mon père, donne-moi la part du bien qui m'appartient; et il leur partagea ses biens. ¹³ Et peu de jours après, quand le plus jeune fils eut tout ramassé, il s'en alla dehors en un pays éloigné; et là il dissipa son bien en vivant dans la débauche. ¹⁴ Et après qu'il eut tout dépensé, une grande famine survint en ce pays-là; et il commença d'être dans la disette. ¹⁵ Alors il s'en alla, et se mit au service d'un des habitants du pays, qui l'envoya dans ses possessions pour paître les pourceaux. ¹⁶ Et il désirait de se rassasier des gousses que les pourceaux mangeaient; mais personne ne lui en donnait. ¹⁷ Or étant revenu à lui-même, il dit : combien y a-t-il de mercenaires dans la maison de mon père, qui ont du pain en abondance, et moi je meurs de faim ? ¹⁸ Je me lèverai, et je m'en irai vers mon père, et je lui dirai : mon père, j'ai péché contre le ciel et devant toi; ¹⁹ Et je ne suis plus digne d'être appelé ton fils; traite-moi comme l'un de tes mercenaires. ²⁰ Il se leva donc, et vint vers son père; et comme il était encore loin, son père le vit, et fut touché de compassion, et courant à lui, se jeta à son cou, et le baisa. ²¹ Mais le fils lui dit : mon père, j'ai péché contre le ciel et devant toi; et je ne suis plus digne d'être appelé ton fils. ²² Et le père dit à ses serviteurs : apportez la plus belle robe, et l'en revêtez, mettez-lui un anneau au doigt, et des souliers aux pieds; ²³ Et amenez-moi le veau gras, et le tuez, et faisons bonne chère en le mangeant. ²⁴ Car mon fils que voici, était mort, mais il est ressuscité; il était perdu, mais il est retrouvé. Et ils commencèrent à faire bonne chère. ²⁵ Or son fils aîné était aux champs, et comme il revenait et qu'il approchait de la maison, il entendit la mélodie et les danses. ²⁶ Et ayant appelé un des serviteurs, il lui demanda ce que c'était. ²⁷ Et ce serviteur lui dit : ton frère est venu, et ton père a tué le veau gras, parce qu'il l'a recouvré sain et sauf. ²⁸ Mais il se mit en colère, et ne voulut point entrer; et son père étant sorti le priait d'entrer. ²⁹ Mais il répondit, et dit à son père : voici, il y a tant d'années que je te sers, et jamais je n'ai transgressé ton commandement, et cependant tu ne m'as jamais donné un chevreau pour faire bonne chère avec mes amis. ³⁰ Mais quand celui-ci, ton fils, qui a mangé ton bien avec des femmes de mauvaise vie, est venu, tu lui as tué le veau gras. ³¹ Et le père lui dit : mon enfant, tu es toujours avec moi, et tous mes biens sont à toi. ³² Or il fallait faire bonne chère, et se réjouir, parce que celui-ci, ton frère, était mort, et il est ressuscité; il était perdu, et il est retrouvé.

Segond⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Tous les publicains et les gens de mauvaise vie s'approchaient de Jésus pour l'entendre. ² Et les pharisiens et les scribes murmuraient, disant: Cet homme accueille des gens de mauvaise vie, et mange avec eux. ³ Mais il leur dit cette parabole: ⁴ Quel homme d'entre vous, s'il a cent brebis, et qu'il en perde une, ne laisse les quatre-vingt-dix-neuf autres dans le désert pour aller après celle qui est perdue, jusqu'à ce qu'il la retrouve? ⁵ Lorsqu'il l'a retrouvée, il la met avec joie sur ses épaules, ⁶ et, de retour à la maison, il appelle ses amis et ses voisins, et leur dit: Réjouissez-vous avec moi, car j'ai retrouvé ma brebis qui était perdue. ⁷ De même, je vous le dis, il y aura plus de joie dans le ciel pour un seul pécheur qui se repent, que pour quatre-vingt-dix-neuf justes qui n'ont pas besoin de repentance. ⁸ Ou quelle femme, si elle a dix drachmes, et qu'elle en perde une, n'allume une lampe, ne balaie la maison, et ne cherche avec soin, jusqu'à ce qu'elle la retrouve? ⁹ Lorsqu'elle l'a retrouvée, elle appelle ses amies et ses voisines, et dit: Réjouissez-vous avec moi, car j'ai retrouvé la drachme que j'avais perdue. ¹⁰ De même, je vous le dis, il y a de la joie devant les anges de Dieu pour un seul pécheur qui se repent. ¹¹ Il dit encore: Un homme avait deux fils. ¹² Le plus jeune dit à son père: Mon père, donne-moi la part de bien qui doit me revenir. Et le père leur partagea son bien. ¹³ Peu de jours après, le plus jeune fils, ayant tout ramassé, partit pour un pays éloigné, où il dissipa son bien en vivant dans la débauche. ¹⁴ Lorsqu'il eut tout dépensé, une grande famine survint dans ce pays, et il commença à se trouver dans le besoin. ¹⁵ Il alla se mettre au service d'un des habitants du pays, qui l'envoya dans ses champs garder les pourceaux. ¹⁶ Il aurait bien voulu se rassasier des carouges que mangeaient les pourceaux, mais personne ne lui en donnait. ¹⁷ Etant rentré en lui-même, il se dit: Combien de mercenaires chez mon père ont du pain en abondance, et moi, ici, je meurs de faim! ¹⁸ Je me lèverai, j'irai vers mon père, et je lui dirai: Mon père, j'ai péché contre le ciel et contre toi, ¹⁹ je ne suis plus digne d'être appelé ton fils; traite-moi comme l'un de tes mercenaires. ²⁰ Et il se leva, et alla vers son père. Comme il était encore loin, son père le vit et fut ému de compassion, il courut se jeter à son cou et le baisa. ²¹ Le fils lui dit: Mon père, j'ai péché contre le ciel et contre toi, je ne suis plus digne d'être appelé ton fils. ²² Mais le père dit à ses serviteurs: Apportez vite la plus belle robe, et l'en revêtez; mettez-lui un anneau au doigt, et des souliers aux pieds. ²³ Amenez le veau gras, et tuez-le. Mangeons et réjouissons-nous; ²⁴ car mon fils que voici était mort, et il est revenu à la vie; il était perdu, et il est retrouvé. Et ils commencèrent à se réjouir. ²⁵ Or, le fils aîné était dans les champs. Lorsqu'il revint et approcha de la maison, il entendit la musique et les danses. ²⁶ Il appela un des serviteurs, et lui demanda ce que c'était. ²⁷ Ce serviteur lui dit: Ton frère est de retour, et, parce qu'il l'a retrouvé en bonne santé, ton père a tué le veau gras. ²⁸ Il se mit en colère, et ne voulut pas entrer. Son père sortit, et le pria d'entrer. ²⁹ Mais il répondit à son père: Voici, il y a tant d'années que je te sers, sans avoir jamais transgressé tes ordres, et jamais tu ne m'as donné un chevreau pour que je me réjouisse avec mes amis. ³⁰ Et quand ton fils est arrivé, celui qui a mangé ton bien avec des prostituées, c'est pour lui que tu as tué le veau gras! ³¹ Mon enfant, lui dit le père, tu es toujours avec moi, et tout ce que j'ai est à toi; ³² mais il fallait bien s'égayer et se réjouir, parce que ton frère que voici était mort et qu'il est revenu à la vie, parce qu'il était perdu et qu'il est retrouvé.

3 G1161 Mais G4314 il leur G846 G2036 dit G5627 G3004 G5723 G5026 cette G3850 parabole:

4 G5101 Quel G444 homme G1537 d’entre G5216 vous G2192 , s’il a G5723 G1540 cent G4263 brebis G2532 , et qu G1537 ’il en G846 G622 perde G5660 G1520 une G3756 , ne G2641 laisse G5719 G1768 les quatre-vingt-dix-neuf G1722 autres dans G2048 le désert G2532 G4198 pour aller G5736 G1909 après G622 celle qui est perdue G5756 G2193 , jusqu’à G846 ce qu’il la G2147 retrouve G5632 ?

5 G2532 Lorsqu G2147 ’il l’a retrouvée G5631 G2007 , il la met G5719 G5463 avec joie G5723 G1909 sur G1438 ses G5606 épaules,

6 G2532 et G2064 , de retour G5631 G1519 à G3624 la maison G4779 , il appelle G5719 G5384 ses amis G2532 et G1069 ses voisins G846 , et leur G3004 dit G5723 G4796 : Réjouissez-vous G5645 G3427 avec moi G3754 , car G2147 j’ai retrouvé G5627 G3450 ma G4263 brebis G3588 qui G622 était perdue G5756 .

7 G3779 De même G5213 , je vous G3004 le dis G5719 G3754 , G2071 il y aura G5704 G2228 plus G5479 de joie G1722 dans G3772 le ciel G1909 pour G1520 un seul G268 pécheur G3340 qui se repent G5723 G1909 , que pour G1768 quatre-vingt-dix-neuf G1342 justes G3748 qui G3756 n’ont pas G2192 besoin G5719 G5532 G3341 de repentance.

8 G2228 Ou G5101 quelle G1135 femme G1437 , si G2192 elle a G5723 G1176 dix G1406 drachmes G1406 , et qu’elle en G622 perde G5661 G3391 une G3780 , n G681 ’allume G5719 G3088 une lampe G2532 , G4563 ne balaie G5719 G3614 la maison G2532 , et G2212 ne cherche G5719 G1960 avec soin G2193 , jusqu’à G3755 ce G2147 qu’elle la retrouve G5632 ?

9 G2532 G2147 Lorsqu’elle l’a retrouvée G5631 G4779 , elle appelle G5731 G5384 ses amies G2532 et G1069 ses voisines G3004 , et dit G5723 G4796 : Réjouissez-vous G5645 G3427 avec moi G3754 , car G2147 j’ai retrouvé G5627 G1406 la drachme G3739 que G622 j’avais perdue G5656 .

10 G3779 De même G5213 , je vous G3004 le dis G5719 G1096 , il y a G5736 G5479 de la joie G1799 devant G32 les anges G2316 de Dieu G1909 pour G1520 un seul G268 pécheur G3340 qui se repent G5723 .

11 G2036 ¶ Il dit G5627 G1161 encore G5100 : Un G444 homme G2192 avait G5707 G1417 deux G5207 fils.

12 G2532 G3501 Le plus jeune G846 G2036 dit G5627 G3962 à son père G3962 : Mon père G1325 , donne G5628 G3427 -moi G3313 la part G3776 de bien G1911 qui doit me revenir G5723 G2532 . Et G846 le père leur G1244 partagea G5627 G979 son bien.

13 G2532 G3756 Peu G4183 G2250 de jours G3326 après G3501 , le plus jeune G5207 fils G537 , ayant tout G4863 ramassé G5631 G589 , partit G5656 G1519 pour G5561 un pays G3117 éloigné G2532 , G1563 où G1287 il dissipa G5656 G846 son G3776 bien G2198 en vivant G5723 G811 dans la débauche.

14 G1161 G846 Lorsqu’il G3956 eut tout G1159 dépensé G5660 G2478 , une grande G3042 famine G1096 survint G5633 G2596 dans G1565 ce G5561 pays G2532 , et G756 il commença G5662 G5302 à se trouver dans le besoin G5745 .

15 G2532 G4198 Il alla se mettre G5679 G2853 au service G5681 G1520 d’un G4177 des habitants G1565 du pays G5561 G2532 , G846 qui l G3992 ’envoya G5656 G1519 dans G846 ses G68 champs G1006 garder G5721 G5519 les pourceaux.

16 G2532 G1937 Il aurait bien voulu G5707 G846 se G1072 rassasier G5658 G2836 G575 des G2769 carouges G3739 que G2068 mangeaient G5707 G5519 les pourceaux G2532 , mais G3762 personne G846 ne lui G1325 en donnait G5707 .

17 G1161 G2064 Etant rentré G5631 G1519 en G1438 lui-même G2036 , il se dit G5627 G4214 : Combien G3407 de mercenaires G3450 chez mon G3962 père G740 ont du pain G4052 en abondance G5719 G1161 , et G1473 moi G622 , ici, je meurs G5731 G3042 de faim !

18 G450 Je me lèverai G5631 G4198 , j’irai G5695 G4314 vers G3450 mon G3962 père G2532 , et G846 je lui G2046 dirai G5692 G3962 : Mon père G264 , j’ai péché G5627 G1519 contre G3772 le ciel G2532 et G1799 contre G4675 toi,

19 G2532 G1510 je ne suis G5748 G3765 plus G514 digne G2564 d’être appelé G5683 G4675 ton G5207 fils G4160 ; traite G5657 G3165 -moi G5613 comme G1520 l’un G4675 de tes G3407 mercenaires.

20 G2532 Et G450 il se leva G5631 G2064 , et alla G5627 G4314 vers G1438 son G3962 père G1161 . G846 Comme il G2089 était encore G3112 loin G568 G5723 G846 , son G3962 père G846 le G1492 vit G5627 G2532 et G4697 fut ému de compassion G5675 G2532 , G5143 il courut G5631 G1968 se jeter G5627 G1909 à G846 son G5137 cou G2532 et G846 le G2705 baisa G5656 .

21 G1161 G5207 Le fils G846 lui G2036 dit G5627 G3962 : Mon père G264 , j’ai péché G5627 G1519 contre G3772 le ciel G2532 et G1799 contre G4675 toi G2532 , G1510 je ne suis G5748 G3765 plus G514 digne G2564 d’être appelé G5683 G4675 ton G5207 fils.

22 G1161 Mais G3962 le père G2036 dit G5627 G4314 à G846 ses G1401 serviteurs G1627 : Apportez G5657 G4413 vite la plus belle G4749 robe G2532 , et G846 l G1746 ’en revêtez G5657 G2532 ; G1325 mettez G5628 G846 -lui G1146 un anneau G1519 au G5495 doigt G2532 , et G5266 des souliers G1519 aux G4228 pieds.

23 G2532 G5342 Amenez G5660 G3448 le veau G4618 gras G2380 , et tuez-le G5657 G5315 . Mangeons G5631 G2532 et G2165 réjouissons-nous G5686 ;

24 G3754 car G3450 mon G5207 fils G3778 que voici G2258 était G5713 G3498 mort G2532 , et G326 il est revenu à la vie G5656 G2532 ; G2258 il était G5713 G622 perdu G5756 G2532 , et G2147 il est retrouvé G5681 G2532 . Et G756 ils commencèrent G5662 G2165 à se réjouir G5745 .

25 G1161 Or G846 , le G5207 fils aîné G4245 G2258 était G5713 G1722 dans G68 les champs G2532 . G5613 Lorsqu’il G2064 revint G5740 G1448 et approcha G5656 G3614 de la maison G191 , il entendit G5656 G4858 la musique G2532 et G5525 les danses.

26 G2532 G4341 Il appela G5666 G1520 un G3816 des serviteurs G4441 , et lui demanda G5711 G5101 ce G5023 que c G1498 ’était G5751 .

27 G1161 G846 Ce serviteur lui G2036 dit G5627 G3754 : G4675 Ton G80 frère G2240 est de retour G5719 G2532 , et G3754 , parce qu G846 ’il l G618 ’a retrouvé G5627 G5198 en bonne santé G5723 G4675 , ton G3962 père G2380 a tué G5656 G3448 le veau G4618 gras.

28 G1161 G3710 Il se mit en colère G5681 G2532 , et G2309 ne voulut G5707 G3756 pas G1525 entrer G5629 G3767 . G846 Son G3962 père G1831 sortit G5631 G846 , et le G3870 pria G5707 d’entrer.

29 G1161 Mais G611 il répondit G5679 G2036 G5627 G3962 à son père G2400 : Voici G5628 G5118 , il y a tant G2094 d’années G4671 que je te G1398 sers G5719 G3763 , sans avoir jamais G3928 transgressé G5627 G4675 tes G1785 ordres G2532 , et G3763 jamais G2532 G1698 tu ne m G1325 ’as donné G5656 G2056 un chevreau G2443 pour que G2165 je me réjouisse G5686 G3326 avec G3450 mes G5384 amis.

30 G1161 Et G3753 quand G3778 ton G4675 G5207 fils G2064 est arrivé G5627 G3588 , celui G2719 qui a mangé G5631 G4675 ton G979 bien G3326 avec G4204 des prostituées G846 , c’est pour lui G2380 que tu as tué G5656 G3448 le veau G4618 gras !

31 G1161 G5043 Mon enfant G846 , lui G2036 dit G5627 G4771 le père, tu G1488 es G5748 G3842 toujours G3326 avec G1700 moi G2532 , et G3956 tout G1699 ce que j G2076 ’ai est G5748 G4674 à toi ;

32 G1161 mais G1163 il fallait G5713 G2165 bien s’égayer G5683 G2532 et G5463 se réjouir G5646 G3754 , parce que G3778 ton G4675 G80 frère G2258 que voici était G5713 G3498 mort G2532 et G326 qu’il est revenu à la vie G5656 G2532 , parce qu G2258 ’il était G5713 G622 perdu G5756 G2532 et G2147 qu’il est retrouvé G5681 .

SE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Y se llegaban a él todos los publicanos y pecadores a oírle. ² Y murmuraban los fariseos y los escribas, diciendo: Este a los pecadores recibe, y con ellos come. ³ Y él les refirió esta parábola, diciendo: ⁴ ¿Qué hombre de vosotros, teniendo cien ovejas, si perdiere una de ellas, no deja las noventa y nueve en el desierto, y va a la que se perdió, hasta que la halle? ⁵ Y hallada, la pone sobre sus hombros gozoso; ⁶ y viniendo a casa, junta a los amigos y a los vecinos, diciéndoles: Dadme el parabién, porque he hallado mi oveja que se había perdido. ⁷ Os digo, que así habrá más gozo en el cielo de un pecador que se enmienda, que de noventa y nueve justos, que no tienen necesidad de enmendarse. ⁸ ¿O qué mujer que tiene diez dracmas, si perdiere una dracma, no enciende el candil, y barre la casa, y busca con diligencia hasta hallarla? ⁹ Y cuando la hubiere hallado, junta las amigas y las vecinas, diciendo: Dadme el parabién, porque he hallado la dracma que había perdido. ¹⁰ Así os digo que hay gozo delante de los ángeles de Dios por un pecador que se enmienda. ¹¹ Y dijo: Un hombre tenía dos hijos; ¹² y el menor de ellos dijo a su padre: Padre, dame la parte de la hacienda que me pertenece; y les repartió la hacienda. ¹³ Y no muchos días después, juntándolo todo el hijo menor, partió lejos a una provincia apartada; y allí desperdició su hacienda viviendo perdidamente. ¹⁴ Y cuando todo lo hubo malgastado, vino una gran hambre en aquella provincia, y le comenzó a faltar. ¹⁵ Y fue y se llegó a uno de los ciudadanos de aquella tierra, el cual le envió a su hacienda para que apacentase los puercos. ¹⁶ Y deseaba llenar su vientre de las algarrobas que comían los puercos; mas nadie se las daba. ¹⁷ Y volviendo en sí, dijo: Cuántos jornaleros en casa de mi padre tienen abundancia de pan, y yo aquí perezco de hambre! ¹⁸ Me levantaré, e iré a mi padre, y le diré: Padre, he pecado contra el cielo y contra ti; ¹⁹ ya no soy digno de ser llamado tu hijo; hazme como a uno de tus jornaleros. ²⁰ Y levantándose, vino a su padre.

Albanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Pastaj të gjithë tagrambledhësit dhe mëkatarët i afroheshin për ta dëgjuar. ² Dhe farisenjtë dhe skribët murmuritnin duke thënë: ''Ky i pranon mëkatarët dhe ha bashkë me ta''. ³ Atëherë ai u tha këtë shëmbëlltyrë: ⁴ ''Cili njeri prej jush, që ka njëqind dele dhe një prej tyre t'i humbasë, nuk i lë të nëntëdhjetë e nëntat në shkretirë dhe nuk shkon pas asaj që humbi deri sa ta gjejë? ⁵ Dhe, kur e gjen, e merr mbi supe gjithë gaz; ⁶ dhe, kur arrin në shtëpi, i thërret miqtë dhe fqinjët dhe u thotë: "Gëzohuni bashkë me mua, sepse e gjeta delen time që më kishte humbur. ⁷ Dhe unë po ju them se po kështu në qiell do të ketë më shumë gëzim për një mëkatar të vetëm që pendohet, sesa për nëntëdhjetë e nëntë të drejtët, që nuk kanë nevojë të pendohen. ⁸ Ose, cila grua që ka dhjetë dhrahmi dhe humbet një nga ato, nuk ndez llambën, nuk e fshin shtëpinë dhe nuk kërkon me kujdes derisa ta gjejë? ⁹ Dhe, kur e gjen, fton tok shoqet dhe fqinjët, duke thënë: "Gëzohuni bashkë me mua, sepse e gjeta dhrahminë që kisha humbur". ¹⁰ Po kështu po ju them: do të ketë gëzim në mes të engjëjve të Perëndisë për një mëkatar të vetëm që pendohet''. ¹¹ Tha akoma: ''Një njeri kishte dy bij. ¹² Më i riu i tyre i tha babait: "Atë, më jep pjesën e pasurisë që më takon". Dhe i ati ua ndau mes tyre pasurinë. ¹³ Mbas pak ditësh biri më i ri mblodhi çdo gjë, shkoi në një vend të largët dhe atje e prishi gjithë pasurinë, duke bërë një jetë të shthurur. ¹⁴ Por, si i shpenzoi të gjitha, në atë vend ra një zi e madhe buke, dhe ai filloi të jetë në hall. ¹⁵ Atëherë shkoi e iu ngjit pas një banori të atij vendi, i cili e çoi në arat e tij që të ruajë derrat. ¹⁶ Dhe ai dëshironte të mbushte barkun me lendet që hanin derrat, por askush nuk ia jepte. ¹⁷ Atëherë erdhi në vete dhe tha: "Sa punëtorëve mëditës të atit tim u tepron buka, kurse unë po vdes nga uria! ¹⁸ Do të çohem dhe do të shkoj tek im atë dhe do t'i them: Atë, mëkatova kundër qiellit dhe para teje; ¹⁹ nuk jam më i denjë të quhem yt bir; trajtomë si një nga mëditësit e tu". ²⁰ U çua, pra, dhe shkoi tek i ati. Por kur ishte ende larg, i ati e pa dhe dhembshuri; u lëshua vrap, ra mbi qafën e tij dhe e puthi. ²¹ Dhe i biri i tha: "O atë, mëkatova kundër qiellit dhe para teje dhe nuk jam më i denjë të quhem biri yt". ²² Por i ati u tha shërbëtorëve të vet: "Sillni këtu rrobën më të bukur dhe visheni, i vini një unazë në gisht dhe sandale në këmbë. ²³ Nxirrni jashtë viçin e majmur dhe thereni; të hamë dhe të gëzohemi, ²⁴ sepse ky biri im kishte vdekur dhe u kthye në jetë, kishte humbur dhe u gjet përsëri". Dhe filluan të bënin një festë të madhe. ²⁵ Djali i tij i madh ishte në ara; dhe kur u kthye dhe iu afrua shtëpisë, dëgjoi këngë e valle. ²⁶ Atëherë thirri një shërbëtor dhe e pyeti ç'ishte e gjitha kjo. ²⁷ Dhe ai i tha: "U kthye yt vëlla dhe yt atë theri viçin e majmur, sepse iu kthye djali shëndoshë e mirë". ²⁸ Kur i dëgjoj këto, ai u zemërua dhe nuk deshi të hynte; atëherë i ati doli dhe iu lut të hynte. ²⁹ Por ai iu përgjigj të atit dhe tha: "Ja, u bënë kaq vite që unë të shërbej dhe kurrë s'kam shkelur asnjë nga urdhërat e tu, e megjithëatë kurrë s'më dhe një kec për të bërë një festë me miqtë e mi. ³⁰ Por, kur u kthye ky djali yt, që prishi pasurinë tënde me prostituta, ti there për të viçin e majmur". ³¹ Atëherë i ati i tha: "O bir, ti je gjithmonë me mua, dhe çdo gjë që kam është jotja. ³² Por duhet të festojmë dhe të gëzohemi, sepse ky vëllai yt kishte vdekur dhe u kthye në jetë, kishte humbur dhe u gjet përsëri"''.

RST⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Приближались к Нему все мытари и грешники слушать Его. ² Фарисеи же и книжники роптали, говоря: Он принимает грешников и ест с ними. ³ Но Он сказал им следующую притчу: ⁴ кто из вас, имея сто овец и потеряв одну из них, не оставит девяноста девяти в пустыне и не пойдет за пропавшею, пока не найдет ее? ⁵ А найдя, возьмет ее на плечи свои с радостью ⁶ и, придя домой, созовет друзей и соседей и скажет им: порадуйтесь со мною: я нашел мою пропавшую овцу. ⁷ Сказываю вам, что так на небесах более радости будет об одном грешнике кающемся, нежели о девяноста девяти праведниках, не имеющих нужды в покаянии. ⁸ Или какая женщина, имея десять драхм, если потеряет одну драхму, не зажжет свечи и не станетмести комнату и искать тщательно, пока не найдет, ⁹ а найдя, созовет подруг и соседок и скажет: порадуйтесь со мною: я нашла потерянную драхму. ¹⁰ Так, говорю вам, бывает радость у Ангелов Божиих и об одном грешнике кающемся. ¹¹ Еще сказал: у некоторого человека было два сына; ¹² и сказал младший из них отцу: отче! дай мне следующую мне часть имения. И отец разделил им имение. ¹³ По прошествии немногих дней младший сын, собрав все, пошел в дальнюю сторону и там расточил имение свое, живя распутно. ¹⁴ Когда же он прожил все, настал великий голод в той стране, и он начал нуждаться; ¹⁵ и пошел, пристал к одному из жителей страны той, а тот послал его на поля свои пасти свиней; ¹⁶ и он рад был наполнить чрево свое рожками, которые ели свиньи, но никто не давал ему. ¹⁷ Придя же в себя, сказал: сколько наемников у отца моего избыточествуют хлебом, а я умираю от голода; ¹⁸ встану, пойду к отцу моему и скажу ему: отче! я согрешил против неба и пред тобою ¹⁹ и уже недостоин называться сыном твоим;прими меня в число наемников твоих. ²⁰ Встал и пошел к отцу своему. И когда он был еще далеко, увидел его отец его и сжалился; и, побежав, пал ему на шею и целовал его. ²¹ Сын же сказал ему: отче! я согрешил против неба и пред тобою и уже недостоин называться сыном твоим. ²² А отец сказал рабам своим: принесите лучшую одежду и оденьте его, и дайте перстень на руку его и обувь на ноги; ²³ и приведите откормленного теленка, и заколите; станем есть и веселиться! ²⁴ ибо этот сын мой был мертв и ожил, пропадал и нашелся. И начали веселиться. ²⁵ Старший же сын его был на поле; и возвращаясь, когда приблизился к дому, услышал пение и ликование; ²⁶ и, призвав одного из слуг, спросил: что это такое? ²⁷ Он сказал ему: брат твой пришел, и отец твой заколол откормленного теленка, потому что принял его здоровым. ²⁸ Он осердился и не хотел войти. Отец же его, выйдя, звал его. ²⁹ Но он сказал в ответ отцу: вот, я столько лет служу тебе и никогда не преступал приказания твоего, но ты никогда не дал мне и козленка, чтобы мне повеселиться с друзьями моими; ³⁰ а когда этот сын твой, расточивший имение свое с блудницами, пришел, ты заколол для него откормленного теленка. ³¹ Он же сказал ему: сын мой! ты всегда со мною, и все мое твое, ³² а о том надобно было радоваться ивеселиться, что брат твой сей был мертв и ожил, пропадал и нашелся.

Bulgarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ А всичките бирници и грешници се приближаваха при Него да Го слушат. ² А фарисеите и книжниците недоволстваха, като казваха: Този приема грешниците и яде с тях! ³ И Той им разказа тази притча: ⁴ Кой от вас, ако има сто овце и му се изгуби една от тях, не оставя деветдесет и деветте в пустинята и не отива след изгубената, докато я намери? ⁵ И като я намери, я вдига на рамената си радостен. ⁶ И като си дойде у дома, свиква приятелите си и съседите си и им казва: Радвайте се с мен, защото си намерих изгубената овца. ⁷ Казвам ви, че също така ще има повече радост на небето за един грешник, който се кае, отколкото за деветдесет и девет праведници, които нямат нужда от покаяние. ⁸ Или коя жена, ако има десет драхми и изгуби една драхма, не запалва светило, не помита къщата и не търси грижливо, докато я намери? ⁹ И като я намери, свиква приятелките и съседките си и казва: Радвайте се с мен, защото намерих драхмата, която бях изгубила. ¹⁰ Също така, казвам ви, има радост пред Божиите ангели за един грешник, който се кае. ¹¹ Каза още: Някой си човек имаше двама сина. ¹² И по-младият от тях каза на баща си: Тате, дай ми дела, който ми се пада от имота. И той им раздели състоянието. ¹³ И не след много дни по-младият син си събра всичко и отиде в далечна страна, и там пропиля имота си с разпуснатия си живот. ¹⁴ А след като пропиля всичко, настана голям глад в онази страна и той изпадна в лишение. ¹⁵ И отиде и се свърза с един от гражданите на онази страна, който го прати на полетата си да пасе свине. ¹⁶ И желаеше да се насити с рошковите, от които ядат свинете; но никой не му даваше. ¹⁷ А като дойде на себе си, каза: Колко наемници на баща ми имат хляб и в излишък, а пък аз умирам от глад! ¹⁸ Ще стана да отида при баща си и ще му кажа: Тате, съгреших против небето и пред теб; ¹⁹ не съм вече достоен да се наричам твой син; направи ме като един от наемниците си. ²⁰ И стана и отиде при баща си. А когато беше още далеч, баща му го видя, смили се и като се затича, се хвърли на врата му и го целуваше. ²¹ А синът му каза: Тате, съгреших против небето и пред теб; не съм вече достоен да се наричам твой син. ²² Но бащата каза на слугите си: Бързо изнесете най-хубавата премяна и го облечете, сложете пръстен на ръката му и сандали на краката му; ²³ и докарайте угоеното теле и го заколете и нека ядем и се веселим, ²⁴ защото този мой син беше мъртъв и оживя, изгубен беше и се намери. И започнаха да се веселят. ²⁵ А по-старият му син беше на нивата; и като си идваше и се приближи до къщата, чу песни и игри. ²⁶ И повика един от слугите и попита какво е това. ²⁷ А той му каза: Брат ти си дойде; и баща ти закла угоеното теле, защото го прие здрав. ²⁸ И той се разсърди и не искаше да влезе; а баща му излезе и започна да го моли. ²⁹ А той в отговор каза на баща си: Ето, толкова години ти работя и никога не съм престъпил някоя твоя заповед, но на мен не си дал дори едно яре някога, за да се повеселя с приятелите си; ³⁰ а щом си дойде този твой син, който изпояде имота ти с блудниците, за него ти закла угоеното теле. ³¹ А той му каза: Синко, ти си винаги с мен и всичко мое е твое. ³² Но подобаваше да се развеселим и да се зарадваме; защото този твой брат беше мъртъв и оживя, и изгубен беше и се намери.

Croatian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Okupljahu se oko njega svi carinici i grešnici da ga slušaju. ² Stoga farizeji i pismoznanci mrmljahu: "Ovaj prima grešnike, i blaguje s njima." ³ Nato im Isus kaza ovu prispodobu: ⁴ "Tko to od vas, ako ima sto ovaca pa izgubi jednu od njih, ne ostavi onih devedeset i devet u pustinji te pođe za izgubljenom dok je ne nađe? ⁵ A kad je nađe, stavi je na ramena sav radostan ⁶ pa došavši kući, sazove prijatelje i susjede i rekne im: 'Radujte se sa mnom! Nađoh ovcu svoju izgubljenu.' ⁷ Kažem vam, tako će na nebu biti veća radost zbog jednog obraćena grešnika nego li zbog devedeset i devet pravednika kojima ne treba obraćenja." ⁸ "Ili koja to žena, ima li deset drahma pa izgubi jednu drahmu, ne zapali svjetiljku, pomete kuću i brižljivo pretraži dok je ne nađe? ⁹ A kad je nađe, pozove prijateljice i susjede pa će im: 'Radujte se sa mnom! Nađoh drahmu što je bijah izgubila.' ¹⁰ Tako, kažem vam, biva radost pred anđelima Božjim zbog jednog obraćena grešnika." ¹¹ I nastavi: "Čovjek neki imao dva sina. ¹² Mlađi reče ocu: 'Oče, daj mi dio dobara koji mi pripada.' I razdijeli im imanje. ¹³ Nakon nekoliko dana mlađi sin pokupi sve, otputova u daleku zemlju i ondje potrati svoja dobra živeći razvratno." ¹⁴ "Kad sve potroši, nasta ljuta glad u onoj zemlji te on poče oskudijevati. ¹⁵ Ode i pribi se kod jednoga žitelja u onoj zemlji. On ga posla na svoja polja pasti svinje. ¹⁶ Želio se nasititi rogačima što su ih jele svinje, ali mu ih nitko nije davao." ¹⁷ "Došavši k sebi, reče: 'Koliki najamnici oca moga imaju kruha napretek, a ja ovdje umirem od gladi! ¹⁸ Ustat ću, poći svomu ocu i reći mu: 'Oče, sagriješih protiv Neba i pred tobom! ¹⁹ Nisam više dostojan zvati se sinom tvojim. Primi me kao jednog od svojih najamnika.'" ²⁰ "Usta i pođe svom ocu. Dok je još bio daleko, njegov ga otac ugleda, ganu se, potrča, pade mu oko vrata i izljubi ga. ²¹ A sin će mu: 'Oče! Sagriješih protiv Neba i pred tobom! Nisam više dostojan zvati se sinom tvojim.' ²² A otac reče slugama: 'Brzo iznesite haljinu najljepšu i obucite ga! Stavite mu prsten na ruku i obuću na noge! ²³ Tele ugojeno dovedite i zakoljite, pa da se pogostimo i proveselimo ²⁴ jer sin mi ovaj bijaše mrtav i oživje, izgubljen bijaše i nađe se!' I stadoše se veseliti." ²⁵ "A stariji mu sin bijaše u polju. Kad se na povratku približio kući, začu svirku i igru ²⁶ pa dozva jednoga slugu da se raspita što je to. ²⁷ A ovaj će mu: 'Došao tvoj brat pa otac tvoj zakla tele ugojeno što sina zdrava dočeka.' ²⁸ A on se rasrdi i ne htjede ući. Otac tada iziđe i stane ga nagovarati. ²⁹ A on će ocu: 'Evo toliko ti godina služim i nikada ne prestupih tvoju zapovijed, a nikad mi ni jareta nisi dao da se s prijateljima proveselim. ³⁰ A kada dođe ovaj sin tvoj koji s bludnicama proždrije tvoje imanje, ti mu zakla ugojeno tele.' ³¹ Nato će mu otac: 'Sinko, ti si uvijek sa mnom i sve moje - tvoje je. ³² No trebalo se veseliti i radovati jer ovaj brat tvoj bijaše mrtav i oživje, izgubljen i nađe se!'"

BKR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Přibližovali se pak k němu všickni publikáni a hříšníci, aby ho slyšeli. ² I reptali farizeové a zákoníci, řkouce: Tento hříšníky přijímá a jí s nimi. ³ I pověděl jim podobenství toto, řka: ⁴ Kdyby někdo z vás měl sto ovec, a ztratil by jednu z nich, zdaliž by nenechal devadesáti devíti na poušti, a nešel k té, kteráž zahynula, až by i nalezl ji? ⁵ A nalezna, jistě by ji vložil na ramena svá s radostí. ⁶ A přijda domů, svolal by přátely a sousedy, řka jim: Spolu radujte se se mnou, neb jsem nalezl ovci svou, kteráž byla zahynula. ⁷ Pravímť vám, že tak jest radost v nebi nad jedním hříšníkem pokání činícím větší, nežli nad devadesáti devíti spravedlivými, kteříž nepotřebují pokání. ⁸ Aneb žena některá mající grošů deset, ztratila-li by jeden groš, zdaliž nezažže svíce, a nemete domu, a nehledá pilně, dokudž nenalezne? ⁹ A když nalezne, svolá přítelkyně a sousedy, řkuci: Spolu radujte se se mnou, neb jsem nalezla groš, kterýž jsem byla ztratila. ¹⁰ Takť pravím vám, že jest radost před anděly Božími nad jedním hříšníkem pokání činícím. ¹¹ Řekl také Ježíš: Člověk jeden měl dva syny. ¹² Z nichž mladší řekl otci: Otče, dej mi díl statku, kterýž mně náleží. I rozdělil jim statek. ¹³ A po nemnohých dnech, shromáždiv sobě všecko mladší syn, odšel do daleké krajiny, a tam rozmrhal statek svůj, živ jsa prostopášně. ¹⁴ A když všecko utratil, stal se hlad veliký v krajině té, a on počal nouzi trpěti. ¹⁵ I všed, přídržel se jednoho měštěnína krajiny té; a on jej poslal do vsi své, aby pásl vepře. ¹⁶ I žádal nasytiti břicho své mlátem, kteréž svině jedly, a žádný nedával jemu. ¹⁷ On pak přišed sám k sobě, řekl: Aj, jak mnozí čeledínové u otce mého hojnost mají chleba, a já tuto hladem mru! ¹⁸ Vstana, půjdu k otci svému, a dím jemu: Otče, zhřešil jsem proti nebi a před tebou, ¹⁹ A již více nejsem hoden slouti syn tvůj. Ale učiň mne jako jednoho z čeledínů svých. ²⁰ I vstav, šel k otci svému. A když ještě opodál byl, uzřel jej otec jeho, a milosrdenstvím hnut jsa, přiběh, padl na šíji jeho, a políbil ho. ²¹ I řekl jemu syn: Otče, zhřešil jsem proti nebi a před tebou, a jižť nejsem hoden slouti syn tvůj. ²² I řekl otec služebníkům svým: Přineste roucho to první, a oblecte jej, a dejte prsten na ruku jeho a obuv na nohy. ²³ A přivedouce tele tučné, zabijte, a hodujíce, buďme veseli. ²⁴ Nebo tento syn můj byl umřel, a zase ožil; byl zahynul, a nalezen jest. I počali veseli býti. ²⁵ Byl pak syn jeho starší na poli. A jda, když se přibližoval k domu, uslyšel zpívání a hluk veselících se. ²⁶ I povolav jednoho z služebníků svých, otázal se ho, co by to bylo. ²⁷ A on řekl jemu: Bratr tvůj přišel, i zabil otec tvůj tučné tele, že ho zdravého přijal. ²⁸ I rozhněval se on, a nechtěl tam vjíti. Otec pak jeho vyšed, prosil ho. ²⁹ A on odpověděv, řekl otci: Aj, tolik let sloužím tobě, a nikdy jsem přikázání tvého nepřestoupil, avšak nikdy jsi mi nedal ani kozelce, abych také s přáteli svými vesel pobyl. ³⁰ Ale když syn tvůj tento, kterýž prožral statek tvůj s nevěstkami, přišel, zabils jemu tele tučné. ³¹ A on řekl mu: Synu, ty vždycky se mnou jsi, a všecky věci mé jsou tvé. ³² Ale hodovati a radovati se náleželo. Nebo bratr tvůj tento byl umřel, a zase ožil; zahynul byl, a nalezen jest.

Danish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Men alle Toldere og Syndere holdt sig nær til ham for at høre ham. ² Og Pharisæerne og de Skriftkloge knurrede og sagde: denne annammer Syndere og æder med dem. ³ Men han talede denne Lignelse til dem og sagde: ⁴ hvilket Menneske af Eder, som har hundrede Faar og har tabt eet af dem, forlader ei de ni og helvfemsindstyve i Ørken og gaaer bort efter det tabte, indtil han finder det? ⁵ Og naar han har fundet det, lægger han det paa sine Skuldre med Glæde. ⁶ Og naar han kommer hjem, sammenkalder han Venner og Naboer og siger til dem: glæder Eder med mig; thi jeg har findet mit Faar, som var tabt. ⁷ Jeg siger Eder: saaledes skal der være Glæde i Himmelen over een Synder, som omvender sig, men end over ni og halvfemsindstyve Retfærdige, hvilke ikke have Omvendelse behov. ⁸ Eller hvilken Kvinde, som har ti Penninge, om hun taber een Penning, tænder ikke et Lys og feier Huset og søger med Flid, indtil hun finder den? ⁹ Og naar hun har findet den, sammenkalder hun Veninder og naboesker og siger: glæder Eder med mig; thi jeg har fundet den penning, som jeg tabte. ¹⁰ Saaledes, siger jeg Eder, bliver der Glæde hos Guds Engle over een Synder, som omvender sig. ¹¹ Men han sagde: en Mand havde to Sønner. ¹² Og den Yngste af dem sagde til Faderen: Fader! giv mig den Deel af Eiendommen, som mig tilfalder. Og han skiftede Godset mellem dem. ¹³ Og ikke mange Dage derefter samlede den yngre Søn alt Sit og drog udenlands, til et Land langt borte, og ødte der sit Gods i et overdaadigt Levned. ¹⁴ Men der han havde fortæret alt det, han eiede, blev en svar hunger i det samme Land; og han begyndte at lide Mangel. ¹⁵ Og han gik hen og holdt sig til een af Borgerne der i landet, og denne sendte ham paa sine Agre og vogte Sviin. ¹⁶ Og han begjerede at fylde sin Bug med Mask, som Svinene aade; og Ingen gav ham Noget. ¹⁷ Men han gik i sig selv og sagde; hvor mange Daglønnere hos min Fader have overflødigt Brød? men jeg omkommer af Hunger. ¹⁸ Jeg vil staae op og gaae til min Fader og sige til ham: Fader! jeg har syndet mod Himmelen og for dig, ¹⁹ og er ikke længere værd at kaldes din Søn, gjør mig som een af dine Daglønnere. ²⁰ Og han stod op og kom til sin Fader. Men der han endnu var langt borte, saae hans Fader ham og ynkes inderligen og løb til og faldt om hans Hals og kyssede ham. ²¹ Men Sønnen sagde til ham: Fader! jeg har syndet imod Himmelen og for dig og er ikke længere værd at kaldes din Søn. ²² Men Faderen sagde til sine Tjenere: bærer frem det bedste Klædebon, ifører ham det og giver ham en Ring paa hans Haand og Skoe paa Fødderne; ²³ og henter den fødede Kalv hid og slagter den, og lader os æde og være lystige. ²⁴ Thi denne min Søn var død og er bleven levende igjen, og var fortabt og er funden. Og de begyndte at være lystige. ²⁵ Men hans Ældste Søn var paa Marken, og da han kom og var nær ved Huset, hørte han Musik og Dands. ²⁶ Og han kaldte een af Drengene til sig og udspurgte, hvad det var? ²⁷ Men han sagde til ham: din Broder er kommen, og din Fader slagtede den fedede Kalv, fordi han har faaet ham karsk igjen. ²⁸ Men han blev vred og vilde ikke gaae ind. Derfor gik hans Fader ud og bad ham. ²⁹ Men han svarede og sagde til Faderen: see, saa mange Aar tjener jeg dig og overtraadte end aldrig dit Bud, og du har aldrig givet mig et Kid, at jeg kunde være lystig med mine Venner. ³⁰ Men da denne din Søn er kommen, som har fortæret dit Godt med Skjøger, slagtede du den fedede Kalv til ham. ³¹ Men han sagde til ham: min Søn! du er altid hos mig, og alt det, som mit er, er dit. ³² Men man burde at være lystig og glæde sig, fordi denne din Broder var død og er bleven levende igjen, og var fortabt, og funden.

CUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ 眾稅吏和罪人都挨近耶穌，要聽他講道。 ² 法利賽人和文士私下議論說：這個人接待罪人，又同他們吃飯。 ³ 耶穌就用比喻說： ⁴ 你們中間誰有一百隻羊失去一隻，不把這九十九隻撇在曠野、去找那失去的羊，直到找著呢？ ⁵ 找著了，就歡歡喜喜的扛在肩上，回到家裡， ⁶ 就請朋友鄰舍來，對他們說：我失去的羊已經找著了，你們和我一同歡喜罷！ ⁷ 我告訴你們，一個罪人悔改，在天上也要這樣為他歡喜，較比為九十九個不用悔改的義人歡喜更大。 ⁸ 或是一個婦人有十塊錢，若失落一塊，豈不點上燈，打掃屋子，細細的找，直到找著麼？ ⁹ 找著了，就請朋友鄰舍來，對他們說：我失落的那塊錢已經找著了，你們和我一同歡喜罷！ ¹⁰ 我告訴你們，一個罪人悔改，在神的使者面前也是這樣為他歡喜。」 ¹¹ 耶穌又說：一個人有兩個兒子。 ¹² 小兒子對父親說：父親，請你把我應得的家業分給我。他父親就把產業分給他們。 ¹³ 過了不多幾日，小兒子就把他一切所有的都收拾起來，往遠方去了。在那裡任意放蕩，浪費貲財。 ¹⁴ 既耗盡了一切所有的，又遇著那地方大遭饑荒，就窮苦起來。 ¹⁵ 於是去投靠那地方的一個人；那人打發他到田裡去放豬。 ¹⁶ 他恨不得拿豬所吃的豆莢充飢，也沒有人給他。 ¹⁷ 他醒悟過來，就說：我父親有多少的雇工，口糧有餘，我倒在這裡餓死麼？ ¹⁸ 我要起來，到我父親那裡去，向他說：父親！我得罪了天，又得罪了你； ¹⁹ 從今以後，我不配稱為你的兒子，把我當作一個雇工罷！ ²⁰ 於是起來，往他父親那裡去。相離還遠，他父親看見，就動了慈心，跑去抱著他的頸項，連連與他親嘴。 ²¹ 兒子說：父親！我得罪了天，又得罪了你；從今以後，我不配稱為你的兒子。 ²² 父親卻吩咐僕人說：把那上好的袍子快拿出來給他穿；把戒指戴在他指頭上；把鞋穿在他腳上； ²³ 把那肥牛犢牽來宰了，我們可以吃喝快樂； ²⁴ 因為我這個兒子是死而復活，失而又得的。他們就快樂起來。 ²⁵ 那時，大兒子正在田裡。他回來，離家不遠，聽見作樂跳舞的聲音， ²⁶ 便叫過一個僕人來，問是甚麼事。 ²⁷ 僕人說：你兄弟來了；你父親因為得他無災無病的回來，把肥牛犢宰了。 ²⁸ 大兒子卻生氣，不肯進去；他父親就出來勸他。 ²⁹ 他對父親說：我服事你這多年，從來沒有違背過你的命，你並沒有給我一隻山羊羔，叫我和朋友一同快樂。 ³⁰ 但你這個兒子和娼妓吞盡了你的產業，他一來了，你倒為他宰了肥牛犢。 ³¹ 父親對他說：兒阿！你常和我同在，我一切所有的都是你的； ³² 只是你這個兄弟是死而復活、失而又得的，所以我們理當歡喜快樂。

8 G2228 或是 G5101 一個 G1135 婦人 G2192 有 G1176 十 G1406 塊錢 G1437 ，若 G622 失落 G3391 一 G1406 塊 G3780 ，豈不 G681 點上 G3088 燈 G4563 ，打掃 G3614 屋子 G1960 ，細細的 G2212 找 G2193 G3755 ，直到 G2147 找著麼？

9 G2147 找著 G4779 了，就請 G5384 朋友 G1069 鄰舍 G3004 來，對他們說 G622 ：我失落的 G3739 那 G1406 塊錢 G2147 已經找著了 G3427 ，你們和我 G4796 一同歡喜罷！

10 G3004 我告訴 G5213 你們 G1520 ，一個 G268 罪人 G3340 悔改 G2316 ，在神的 G32 使者 G1799 面前 G1096 也是 G1909 這樣為 G5479 他歡喜。」

11 G1161 耶穌又 G2036 說 G5100 ：一個 G444 人 G2192 有 G1417 兩個 G5207 兒子。

12 G3501 小 G3962 兒子對父親 G2036 說 G3962 ：父親 G1911 ，請你把我應得的 G3776 家業 G1325 分給 G3427 我 G2532 。他父親就 G979 把產業 G1244 分給 G846 他們。

13 G3326 過了 G3756 不 G4183 多幾 G2250 日 G3501 ，小 G5207 兒子 G537 就把他一切 G4863 所有的都收拾起來 G1519 ，往 G3117 G5561 遠方 G589 去了 G1563 。在那裡 G811 G2198 任意放蕩 G1287 ，浪費 G3776 貲財。

14 G1161 既 G1159 耗盡 G3956 了一切所有的 G1565 ，又遇著那 G5561 地方 G2478 大 G1096 遭 G3042 饑荒 G2532 ，就 G5302 窮苦 G756 起來。

15 G2532 於是 G4198 去 G2853 投靠 G1565 那 G5561 地方 G4177 的一個人 G3992 ；那人打發 G846 他 G1519 到 G68 田裡 G1006 去放 G5519 豬。

16 G846 他 G1937 恨不得 G575 拿 G5519 豬 G2068 所吃 G2769 的豆莢 G1072 G2836 充飢 G2532 ，也 G3762 沒有人 G1325 給 G846 他。

17 G2064 G1519 G1438 他醒悟過來 G2036 ，就說 G3450 ：我 G3962 父親 G4214 有多少 G3407 的雇工 G740 ，口糧 G4052 有餘 G1473 ，我 G1161 倒 G3042 在這裡餓 G622 死麼？

18 G450 我要起來 G4314 ，到 G3450 我 G3962 父親 G4198 那裡去 G846 ，向他 G2046 說 G3962 ：父親 G264 G1519 ！我得罪 G3772 了天 G2532 ，又 G4675 得罪了你；

19 G3765 從今以後，我不 G514 配 G2564 稱 G1510 為 G4675 你的 G5207 兒子 G3165 ，把我 G4160 當 G5613 作 G1520 一個 G3407 雇工罷！

20 G2532 於是 G450 起來 G4314 ，往 G1438 他 G3962 父親 G2064 那裡去 G568 。相離 G2089 還 G3112 遠 G846 ，他 G3962 父親 G1492 看見 G2532 ，就 G4697 動了慈心 G5143 ，跑 G1968 G1909 去抱著 G846 他的 G5137 頸項 G846 ，連連與他 G2705 親嘴。

21 G5207 兒子 G2036 說 G3962 ：父親 G264 G1519 ！我得罪了 G3772 天 G2532 ，又 G4675 得罪了你 G3765 ；從今以後，我不 G514 配 G2564 稱 G1510 為 G4675 你的 G5207 兒子。

22 G3962 父親 G1161 卻 G2036 G4314 吩咐 G1401 僕人 G4413 說：把那上好的 G4749 袍子 G1627 快拿出來 G846 給他 G1746 穿 G1146 ；把戒指 G1325 戴 G1519 在 G846 他 G5495 指頭上 G5266 ；把鞋 G1519 穿在 G4228 他腳上；

23 G4618 把那肥 G3448 牛犢 G5342 牽來 G2380 宰了 G5315 ，我們可以吃喝 G5315 快樂；

24 G3754 因為 G3450 我 G3778 這個 G5207 兒子 G2258 是 G3498 死 G2532 而 G326 復活 G622 ，失 G2532 而 G2147 又得的 G2532 。他們就 G2165 快樂 G756 起來。

25 G1161 那時 G4245 ，大 G5207 兒子 G2258 正 G1722 在 G68 田裡 G2064 。他回來 G3614 ，離家 G1448 不遠 G191 ，聽見 G4858 作樂 G5525 跳舞的聲音，

26 G2532 便 G4341 叫 G1520 過一個 G3816 僕人 G4441 來，問 G1498 是 G5101 甚麼 G5023 事。

27 G2036 僕人說 G4675 ：你 G80 兄弟 G2240 來了 G4675 ；你 G3962 父親 G3754 因為 G618 得 G846 他 G5198 無災無病的 G4618 回來，把肥 G3448 牛犢 G2380 宰了。

28 G1161 大兒子卻 G3710 生氣 G3756 ，不 G2309 肯 G1525 進去 G846 ；他 G3962 父親 G3767 就 G1831 出來 G3870 勸 G846 他。

29 G3962 他對父親 G2036 說 G1398 ：我服事 G4671 你 G5118 這多 G2094 年 G3763 ，從來沒有 G3928 違背 G4675 過你的 G1785 命 G3763 G2532 ，你並沒有 G1325 給 G1698 我 G2056 一隻山羊羔 G2443 ，叫 G3450 我 G3326 和 G5384 朋友 G2165 一同快樂。

30 G1161 但 G4675 你 G3778 這個 G5207 兒子 G3326 和 G4204 娼妓 G2719 吞盡了 G4675 你的 G979 產業 G2064 ，他一來了 G846 ，你倒為他 G2380 宰了 G4618 肥 G3448 牛犢。

31 G846 父親對他 G2036 說 G5043 ：兒阿 G4771 ！你 G3842 常 G3326 和 G1700 我 G1488 同在 G1699 ，我 G3956 一切所有的 G2076 都是 G4674 你的；

32 G3754 只是 G4675 你 G3778 這個 G80 兄弟 G2258 是 G3498 死 G2532 而 G326 復活 G622 、失 G2532 而 G2147 又得的 G1161 ，所以 G1163 我們理當 G2165 歡喜 G5463 快樂。

CUVS⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ 众税吏和罪人都挨近耶稣，要听他讲道。 ² 法利赛人和文士私下议论说：这个人接待罪人，又同他们吃饭。 ³ 耶稣就用比喻说： ⁴ 你们中间谁冇一百隻羊失去一隻，不把这九十九隻撇在旷野、去找那失去的羊，直到找着呢？ ⁵ 找着了，就欢欢喜喜的扛在肩上，回到家里， ⁶ 就请朋友邻舍来，对他们说：我失去的羊已经找着了，你们和我一同欢喜罢！ ⁷ 我告诉你们，一个罪人悔改，在天上也要这样为他欢喜，较比为九十九个不用悔改的义人欢喜更大。 ⁸ 或是一个妇人冇十块钱，若失落一块，岂不点上灯，打扫屋子，细细的找，直到找着么？ ⁹ 找着了，就请朋友邻舍来，对他们说：我失落的那块钱已经找着了，你们和我一同欢喜罢！ ¹⁰ 我告诉你们，一个罪人悔改，在神的使者面前也是这样为他欢喜。」 ¹¹ 耶稣又说：一个人冇两个儿子。 ¹² 小儿子对父亲说：父亲，请你把我应得的家业分给我。他父亲就把产业分给他们。 ¹³ 过了不多几日，小儿子就把他一切所冇的都收拾起来，往远方去了。在那里任意放蕩，浪费赀财。 ¹⁴ 既耗尽了一切所冇的，又遇着那地方大遭饑荒，就穷苦起来。 ¹⁵ 于是去投靠那地方的一个人；那人打发他到田里去放猪。 ¹⁶ 他恨不得拿猪所吃的豆荚充饥，也没冇人给他。 ¹⁷ 他醒悟过来，就说：我父亲冇多少的雇工，口粮冇余，我倒在这里饿死么？ ¹⁸ 我要起来，到我父亲那里去，向他说：父亲！我得罪了天，又得罪了你； ¹⁹ 从今以后，我不配称为你的儿子，把我当作一个雇工罢！ ²⁰ 于是起来，往他父亲那里去。相离还远，他父亲看见，就动了慈心，跑去抱着他的颈项，连连与他亲嘴。 ²¹ 儿子说：父亲！我得罪了天，又得罪了你；从今以后，我不配称为你的儿子。 ²² 父亲却吩咐仆人说：把那上好的袍子快拿出来给他穿；把戒指戴在他指头上；把鞋穿在他脚上； ²³ 把那肥牛犊牵来宰了，我们可以吃喝快乐； ²⁴ 因为我这个儿子是死而复活，失而又得的。他们就快乐起来。 ²⁵ 那时，大儿子正在田里。他回来，离家不远，听见作乐跳舞的声音， ²⁶ 便叫过一个仆人来，问是甚么事。 ²⁷ 仆人说：你兄弟来了；你父亲因为得他无灾无病的回来，把肥牛犊宰了。 ²⁸ 大儿子却生气，不肯进去；他父亲就出来劝他。 ²⁹ 他对父亲说：我服事你这多年，从来没冇违背过你的命，你并没冇给我一隻山羊羔，叫我和朋友一同快乐。 ³⁰ 但你这个儿子和娼妓吞尽了你的产业，他一来了，你倒为他宰了肥牛犊。 ³¹ 父亲对他说：儿阿！你常和我同在，我一切所冇的都是你的； ³² 只是你这个兄弟是死而复活、失而又得的，所以我们理当欢喜快乐。

3 G2424 耶稣 G1161 就 G2036 用 G3850 比喻 G3004 说：

4 G5216 你们 G1537 中间 G5101 G444 谁 G2192 有 G1540 一百隻 G4263 羊 G622 失去 G1520 一隻 G3756 ，不 G1768 把这九十九 G2641 隻撇 G1722 在 G2048 旷野 G4198 、去 G1909 找 G622 那失去 G2193 的羊，直到 G2147 找着呢？

11 G1161 耶稣又 G2036 说 G5100 ：一个 G444 人 G2192 有 G1417 两个 G5207 儿子。

12 G3501 小 G3962 儿子对父亲 G2036 说 G3962 ：父亲 G1911 ，请你把我应得的 G3776 家业 G1325 分给 G3427 我 G2532 。他父亲就 G979 把产业 G1244 分给 G846 他们。

13 G3326 过了 G3756 不 G4183 多几 G2250 日 G3501 ，小 G5207 儿子 G537 就把他一切 G4863 所有的都收拾起来 G1519 ，往 G3117 G5561 远方 G589 去了 G1563 。在那里 G811 G2198 任意放蕩 G1287 ，浪费 G3776 赀财。

14 G1161 既 G1159 耗尽 G3956 了一切所有的 G1565 ，又遇着那 G5561 地方 G2478 大 G1096 遭 G3042 饑荒 G2532 ，就 G5302 穷苦 G756 起来。

15 G2532 于是 G4198 去 G2853 投靠 G1565 那 G5561 地方 G4177 的一个人 G3992 ；那人打发 G846 他 G1519 到 G68 田里 G1006 去放 G5519 猪。

16 G846 他 G1937 恨不得 G575 拿 G5519 猪 G2068 所吃 G2769 的豆荚 G1072 G2836 充饥 G2532 ，也 G3762 没有人 G1325 给 G846 他。

18 G450 我要起来 G4314 ，到 G3450 我 G3962 父亲 G4198 那里去 G846 ，向他 G2046 说 G3962 ：父亲 G264 G1519 ！我得罪 G3772 了天 G2532 ，又 G4675 得罪了你；

31 G846 父亲对他 G2036 说 G5043 ：儿阿 G4771 ！你 G3842 常 G3326 和 G1700 我 G1488 同在 G1699 ，我 G3956 一切所有的 G2076 都是 G4674 你的；

32 G3754 只是 G4675 你 G3778 这个 G80 兄弟 G2258 是 G3498 死 G2532 而 G326 复活 G622 、失 G2532 而 G2147 又得的 G1161 ，所以 G1163 我们理当 G2165 欢喜 G5463 快乐。

Estonian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Aga kõik tölnerid ja patused lähenesid Temale, Teda kuulama. ² Ja variserid ja kirjatundjad nurisesid ning ütlesid: "See võtab patuseid vastu ja sööb ühes nendega!" ³ Aga Ta rääkis neile selle tähendamissõna ning ütles: ⁴ "Kes teie seast, kui tal on sada lammast ja ühe neist kaotab, ei jäta need üheksakümmend üheksa kõrbe ega lähe kadunule järele, kuni ta tema leiab? ⁵ Ja kui ta on leidnud, võtab ta rõõmuga tema oma õlgadele, ⁶ ja kui ta koju tuleb, ta kutsub kokku sõbrad ja naabrid ning ütleb neile: Rõõmutsege ühes minuga, sest ma leidsin oma lamba, kes oli kadunud! ⁷ Ma ütlen teile, nõnda on taevas ühest patusest, kes meelt parandab, rohkem rõõmu kui üheksakümne üheksast õigest, kes meeleparandust ei vaja! ⁸ Või kui ühel naisel on kümme drahmiraha ja ta kaotab ühe drahmi, eks ta süüta küünla ja pühi koda ja otsi hoolega, kuni ta selle leiab? ⁹ Ja kui ta selle on leidnud, siis ta kutsub kokku sõbrad ja naabrid ja ütleb: Rõõmutsege ühes minuga, sest ma olen leidnud drahmiraha, mille ma kaotasin! ¹⁰ Nõnda, ütlen Ma teile, tõuseb rõõm Jumala Inglite keskel ühest patusest, kes meelt parandab!" ¹¹ Veel ütles ta: "Ühel inimesel oli kaks poega. ¹² Ja noorem neist ütles isale: Isa, anna mulle kätte see osa vara, mis saab minule! Ja isa jagas varanduse nende vahel. ¹³ Ja ei möödunud palju päevi, kui noorem poeg kogus kokku kõik ja siirdus kaugele maale, ja seal ta pillas ära oma vara, elades kõlvatumat elu. ¹⁴ Aga kui ta kõik oli ära raisanud, tuli sinna maale kange nälg, ja puudus hakkas talle kätte tulema. ¹⁵ Ja ta läks ja poetas enese ühe kodaniku juure seal maal, ja see saatis ta oma väljadele sigu hoidma. ¹⁶ Ja ta püüdis oma kõhtu täita kaunadega, mida sead sõid; ja ükski ei annud temale. ¹⁷ Aga kui ta keskenes endasse, ütles ta: Kui palju palgalisi on mu isal ja neil on leiba küllalt, mina aga suren siia nälja kätte! ¹⁸ Ma asun teele ning lähen oma isa juure ja ütlen temale: Isa, ma olen pattu teinud taeva vastu ja sinu ees ¹⁹ ega ole enam väärt, et mind su pojaks hüütaks; pea mind kui üht oma palgalist! ²⁰ Ja ta läks teele ja tuli oma isa juure. Aga kui ta alles kaugel oli, nägi teda tema isa ja tal hakkas hale meel. Ja ta jooksis ja hakkas temale ümber kaela ja andis temale suud. ²¹ Aga poeg ütles talle: Isa, ma olen pattu teinud taeva vastu ja sinu ees ega ole enam väärt, et mind su pojaks hüütaks! ²² Ent isa ütles oma sulastele: Tooge kõige kallim rüü ja pange temale selga ja andke temale sõrmus sõrme ja kingad jalga, ²³ ja tooge, veristage nuumvasikas ja söögem ning olgem rõõmsad, ²⁴ sest see mu poeg oli surnud ja on ellu virgunud, ta oli kadunud ja on leitud! Ja nemad hakkasid rõõmutsema. ²⁵ Aga tema vanem poeg oli väljal; ja kui ta sealt tulles jõudis maja ligi, kuulis ta pilli ja ringmängu. ²⁶ Siis ta kutsus ühe teenijaist enda juure ja kuulas, mis see peaks olema. ²⁷ See ütles temale: Su vend on tulnud ja su isa on veristanud nuumvasika, et ta on saanud tema tervisega tagasi! ²⁸ Aga ta vihastus ega tahtnud sisse minna. Siis tuli ta isa välja ja palus teda. ²⁹ Kuid tema vastas ning ütles isale: Vaata, nii mitu aastat orjan mina sind ja ei ole iialgi astunud üle sinu käsu, ja sina ei ole mulle elades annud üht sikkugi, et ma oleksin võinud rõõmus olla oma sõpradega. ³⁰ Aga kui tuli see sinu poeg, kes su vara on ära raisanud hooradega, veristasid sina temale nuumvasika! ³¹ Tema ütles temale: Laps, sina oled ikka minu juures ja kõik, mis on minu, on sinu! ³² Nüüd oli tarvis pidu teha ja rõõmutseda, et see sinu vend oli surnud ja on jälle saanud elavaks, ja et ta oli kadunud ja on leitud!"

Finnish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Mutta hänen tykönsä tulivat kaikki Publikanit ja syntiset, kuulemaan häntä. ² Ja Pharisealaiset ja kirjanoppineet napisivat ja sanoivat: tämä syntisiä vastaan ottaa ja syö heidän kanssansa. ³ Niin hän sanoi heille tämän vertauksen, sanoen: ⁴ Kuka on teistä se ihminen, jolla on sata lammasta, ja jos hän yhden niistä kadottaa, eikö hän jätä yhdeksänkymmentä ja yhdeksän korpeen, ja mene sen jälkeen, joka kadonnut on, siihenasti että hän sen löytää? ⁵ Ja kuin hän sen löytää, niin hän panee sen olallensa, iloiten. ⁶ Ja kuin hän tulee kotiansa, niin hän kutsuu kokoon ystävänsä ja kylänsä miehet, ja sanoo heille: iloitkaat minun kanssani: sillä minä löysin lampaani, joka kadonnut oli. ⁷ Minä sanon teille: niin pitää ilo oleman taivaassa yhdestä syntisestä, joka itsensä parantaa, enemmin kuin yhdeksästäkymmenestä ja yhdeksästä hurskaasta, jotka ei parannusta tarvitse. ⁸ Taikka kuka vaimo on, jolla on kymmenen penninkiä, jos hän yhden niistä kadottaa, eikö hän sytytä kynttilää, ja lakaise huonetta, ja etsi visusti niinkauvan kuin hän sen löytää? ⁹ Ja kuin hän sen löytänyt on, kutsuu hän kokoon ystävänsä ja kylänsä vaimot, ja sanoo: iloitkaat minun kanssani; sillä minä löysin penninkini, jonka minä kadotin. ¹⁰ Niin myös, sanon minä teille, pitää ilo oleman Jumalan enkeleillä yhdestä syntisestä, joka itsensä parantaa. ¹¹ Ja hän sanoi: yhdellä miehellä oli kaksi poikaa, ¹² Ja nuorempi heistä sanoi isällensä: isä, anna minulle osa tavarasta, joka minulle tulee. Ja hän jakoi heille tavaran. ¹³ Ja ei kauvan sen jälkeen, kuin nuorempi poika oli kaikki koonnut, meni hän kaukaiselle maakunnalle, ja hukkasi siellä tavaransa irstaisuudessa. ¹⁴ Mutta kuin hän kaikki oli tuhlannut, niin tuli suuri nälkä kaikkeen siihen maakuntaan; ja hän rupesi hätääntymään, ¹⁵ Ja meni pois ja suostui yhteen sen maakunnan kauppamieheen, joka hänen lähetti maakyliinsä kaitsemaan sikojansa. ¹⁶ Ja hän pyysi vatsaansa ravalla täyttää, jota siat söivät, ja ei kenkään hänelle sitäkään antanut. ¹⁷ Mutta kuin hän mielensä malttoi, sanoi hän: kuinka monella minun isäni palkollisella on kyllä leipää, ja minä kuolen nälkään! ¹⁸ Minä nousen ja käyn minun isäni tykö ja sanon hänelle: isä, minä olen syntiä tehnyt taivasta vastaan ja sinun edessäs, ¹⁹ Ja en ole silleen mahdollinen sinun pojakses kutsuttaa: tee minua niinkuin yhden palkollisistas. ²⁰ Ja hän nousi ja tuli isänsä tykö. Mutta kuin hän vielä taampana oli, näki hänen isänsä hänen, ja armahti hänen päällensä, ja juosten lankesi hänen kaulaansa, ja suuta antoi hänen. ²¹ Mutta poika sanoi hänelle: isä, minä olen syntiä tehnyt taivasta vastaan ja sinun edessäs, ja en ole mahdollinen tästedes sinun pojakses kutsuttaa. ²² Niin sanoi isä palvelioillensa: tuokaat tänne ne parhaat vaatteet, ja pukekaat hänen yllensä, ja antakaat sormus hänen käteensä, ja kengät hänen jalkoihinsa, ²³ Ja tuokaat syötetty vasikka, ja tappakaat se, ja syökäämme ja riemuitkaamme; ²⁴ Sillä tämä minun poikani oli kuollut, ja virkosi jälleen: hän oli kadonnut, ja on taas löydetty; ja rupesivat riemuitsemaan. ²⁵ Mutta hänen vanhempi poikansa oli pellolla, ja kuin hän tuli ja huonettä lähestyi, kuuli hän laulun ja hypyt. ²⁶ Niin hän kutsui yhden palvelioistansa ja kysyi: mikä se on? ²⁷ Niin se sanoi hänelle: sinun veljes tuli, ja isäs antoi tappaa syötetyn vasikan, että hän sai hänen terveenä jälleen. ²⁸ Niin hän vihastui eikä tahtonut mennä sisälle; hänen isänsä meni siis ulos, ja neuvoi häntä. ²⁹ Mutta hän vastasi ja sanoi isällensä: katso, niin monta vuotta minä palvelen sinua, ja en ole koskaan sinun käskyäs käynyt ylitse, ja et sinä ole minulle vohlaakaan antanut, riemuitakseni ystäväini kanssa. ³⁰ Mutta että tämä sinun poikas tuli, joka tavaransa on tuhlannut porttoin kanssa, tapoit sinä hänelle syötetyn vasikan. ³¹ Mutta hän sanoi hänelle: poikani! sinä olet aina minun tykönäni, ja kaikki mitä minun on, se on sinun. ³² Niin piti sinunkin riemuitseman ja iloitseman; sillä tämä sinun veljes oli kuollut ja virkosi jälleen, hän oli kadonnut ja on taas löydetty.

Niin hän jakoi heille omaisuutensa. ¹³ Eikä kulunut montakaan päivää, niin nuorempi poika kokosi kaiken omansa ja matkusti pois kaukaiseen maahan; ja siellä hän hävitti tavaransa eläen irstaasti. ¹⁴ Mutta kun hän oli kaikki tuhlannut, tuli kova nälkä koko siihen maahan, ja hän alkoi kärsiä puutetta. ¹⁵ Ja hän meni ja yhtyi erääseen sen maan kansalaiseen, ja tämä lähetti hänet tiluksilleen kaitsemaan sikoja. ¹⁶ Ja hän halusi täyttää vatsansa niillä palkohedelmillä, joita siat söivät, mutta niitäkään ei kukaan hänelle antanut. ¹⁷ Niin hän meni itseensä ja sanoi: 'Kuinka monella minun isäni palkkalaisella on yltäkyllin leipää, mutta minä kuolen täällä nälkään! ¹⁸ Minä nousen ja menen isäni tykö ja sanon hänelle: Isä, minä olen tehnyt syntiä taivasta vastaan ja sinun edessäsi ¹⁹ enkä enää ansaitse, että minua sinun pojaksesi kutsutaan; tee minut yhdeksi palkkalaisistasi.' ²⁰ Ja hän nousi ja meni isänsä tykö. Mutta kun hän vielä oli kaukana, näki hänen isänsä hänet ja armahti häntä, juoksi häntä vastaan ja lankesi hänen kaulaansa ja suuteli häntä hellästi. ²¹ Mutta poika sanoi hänelle: 'Isä, minä olen tehnyt syntiä taivasta vastaan ja sinun edessäsi enkä enää ansaitse, että minua sinun pojaksesi kutsutaan'. ²² Silloin isä sanoi palvelijoilleen: 'Tuokaa pian parhaat vaatteet ja pukekaa hänet niihin, ja pankaa sormus hänen sormeensa ja kengät hänen jalkaansa; ²³ ja noutakaa syötetty vasikka ja teurastakaa. Ja syökäämme ja pitäkäämme iloa, ²⁴ sillä tämä minun poikani oli kuollut ja virkosi eloon, hän oli kadonnut ja on jälleen löytynyt.'

Haitian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Tout pèseptè kontribisyon yo ak moun k'ap fè sa ki mal yo t'ap pwoche bò kot Jezi pou tande sa l' t'ap di. ² Farizyen yo ak dirèktè lalwa yo t'ap babye. Yo t'ap di: Nonm sa a ap resevwa moun k'ap fè sa ki mal, epi l'ap manje ak yo. ³ Lè sa a, Jezi di yo parabòl sa a: ⁴ Sipoze yonn nan nou gen san (100) mouton. Si l' pèdi yonn ladan yo, èske li p'ap kite katrevendisnèf lòt mouton yo nan dezè a, pou li al dèyè sak pèdi a? L'ap chache l' jouk li jwenn li. ⁵ Lè l' jwenn li, l'ap mete l' sou zepòl li ak kè kontan. ⁶ Lè l' tounen lakay li avè l', l'ap rele tout zanmi l' ak tout vwazen l' yo, l'ap di yo: vin fè fèt avè m', mwen jwenn mouton m' ki te pèdi a. ⁷ Konsa tou, m'ap di nou, va gen plis kontantman nan syèl la pou yon sèl moun ki t'ap fè sa ki mal epi ki tounen vin jwenn Bondye, pase pou katrevendisnèf moun k'ap mache dwat, ki pa bezwen tounen vin jwenn Bondye. ⁸ Osinon ankò, sipoze yon fanm ki gen dis pyès lajan. Si li pèdi yonn ladan yo, èske li p'ap limen lanp, bale tout kay la, chache nan tout ti kwen jouk li jwenn li? ⁹ Lè l' jwenn li, l'ap rele zanmi l' ak vwazen li yo, l'ap di yo: vin fè fèt avè m'; mwen jwenn pyès lajan m' ki te pèdi a. ¹⁰ Konsa tou, m'ap di nou sa, gen kontantman nan mitan zanj Bondye yo pou yon sèl moun ki t'ap viv nan peche epi ki tounen vin jwenn Bondye. ¹¹ Jezi di ankò: Vwala, se te yon nonm ki te gen de pitit gason. ¹² Pi piti a di papa l': Papa, ban m' pa m' nan byen nou yo. Lè sa a, papa a separe byen l' yo bay tou de. ¹³ Kèk jou apre, ti gason an ranmase tout afè l', li pati, li ale nan yon peyi byen lwen. Antan li la, li lage kò l' nan banbòch, li gaspiye tout lajan l'. ¹⁴ Lè msye fin depanse tout lajan l', yon gwo grangou tonbe sou peyi a. Lè sa a, li vin nan nesesite. ¹⁵ li al mande travay lakay yon abitan nan peyi a. Abitan an voye l' nan jaden l' al gade kochon. ¹⁶ Lè sa a, li ta byen renmen plen vant li ak sa kochon yo t'ap manje a, men pesonn pa t' ba li. ¹⁷ Se lè sa a atò li pran kalkile sou sitiyasyon l'. Li di konsa: Gade kantite moun k'ap travay kay papa m' pou lajan! Yo jwenn manje depase sa yo ka manje. Epi mwen menm, m'ap mouri grangou isit la. ¹⁸ M'ap leve, mwen pral tounen jwenn papa m', m'ap di li: Papa, mwen peche kont Bondye, mwen peche kont ou menm tou. ¹⁹ Mwen pa merite pou ou konsidere m' pou pitit ou ankò. Gade m' tankou yonn nan moun k'ap travay avè ou yo. ²⁰ Li leve vre, li pran chemen tounen kay papa li. Msye te byen lwen kay la toujou lè papa a wè li. Kè papa a fè l' mal, li kouri al rankontre l', li pase men l' nan kou pitit la epi li bo li. ²¹ Pitit la di li: Papa, mwen peche kont Bondye, mwen peche kont ou menm tou; mwen pa merite pou ou konsidere m' pou pitit ou ankò. ²² Men, papa a di domestik li yo: Ale vit. Pote pi bèl rad la, mete l' sou li pou mwen. Mete yon bag nan dwèt li, mete soulye nan pye li. ²³ Al chache jenn ti towo nou t'ap angrese a, touye l'.

Hungarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Közelgetnek vala pedig õ hozzá a vámszedõk és a bûnösök mind, hogy hallgassák õt. ² És zúgolódának a farizeusok és az írástudók, mondván: Ez bûnösöket fogad magához, és velök együtt eszik. ³ Õ pedig ezt a példázatot beszélé nékik, mondván: ⁴ Melyik ember az közületek, a kinek ha száz juha van, és egyet azok közül elveszt, nem hagyja ott a kilenczvenkilenczet a pusztában, és nem megy az elveszett után, mígnem megtalálja azt? ⁵ És ha megtalálta, felveti az õ vállára, örülvén. ⁶ És haza menvén, egybehívja barátait és szomszédait, mondván nékik: Örvendezzetek én velem, mert megtaláltam az én juhomat, a mely elveszett vala. ⁷ Mondom néktek, hogy ily módon [nagyobb] öröm lesz a mennyben egy megtérõ bûnösön, hogynem kilenczvenkilencz igaz [ember]en, a kinek nincs szüksége megtérésre. ⁸ Avagy ha valamely asszonynak tíz drakhmája van, és egy drakhmát elveszt, nem gyújt-é gyertyát, és nem sepri-é ki a házat, és nem keresi-é gondosan, mígnem megtalálja? ⁹ És ha megtalálta, egybehívja az õ asszonybarátait és szomszédait, mondván: Örüljetek én velem, mert megtaláltam a drakhmát, melyet elvesztettem vala! ¹⁰ Ezenképen, mondom néktek, örvendezés van az Isten angyalainak színe elõtt egy bûnös [ember] megtérésén. ¹¹ Monda pedig: Egy embernek vala két fia; ¹² És monda az ifjabbik az õ atyjának: Atyám, add ki a vagyonból rám esõ részt! És az megosztá köztök a vagyont. ¹³ Nem sok nap mulva aztán a kisebbik fiú összeszedvén mindenét, messze vidékre költözék; és ott eltékozlá vagyonát, mivelhogy dobzódva élt. ¹⁴ Minekutána pedig mindent elköltött, támada nagy éhség azon a vidéken, és õ kezde szükséget látni. ¹⁵ Akkor elmenvén, hozzá szegõdék annak a vidéknek egyik polgárához; és az elküldé õt az õ mezeire disznókat legeltetni. ¹⁶ És kívánja vala megtölteni az õ gyomrát azzal a moslékkal, a mit a disznók ettek; és senki sem ád vala néki. ¹⁷ Mikor aztán magába szállt, monda: Az én atyámnak mily sok bérese bõvölködik kenyérben, én pedig éhen halok meg! ¹⁸ Fölkelvén elmegyek az én atyámhoz, és [ezt] mondom néki: Atyám, vétkeztem az ég ellen és te ellened. ¹⁹ És nem vagyok immár méltó, hogy a te fiadnak hivattassam; tégy engem olyanná, mint a te béreseid közül egy! ²⁰ És felkelvén, elméne az õ atyjához.

Az õ atyja annakokáért kimenvén, kérlelé õt. ²⁹ Õ pedig felelvén, monda atyjának: Ímé ennyi esztendõtõl fogva szolgálok néked, és soha parancsolatodat át nem hágtam: és nékem soha nem adtál egy kecskefiat, hogy az én barátaimmal vígadjak. ³⁰ Mikor pedig ez a te fiad megjött, a ki paráznákkal emésztette föl a te vagyonodat, levágattad néki a hízott tulkot. ³¹ Az pedig monda néki: Fiam, te mindenkor én velem vagy, és mindenem a tiéd! ³² Vígadnod és örülnöd kellene hát, hogy ez a te testvéred meghalt, és feltámadott; és elveszett, és megtaláltatott.

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Pada suatu hari, banyak penagih pajak dan orang-orang yang dianggap tidak baik oleh masyarakat, datang mendengar Yesus. ² Orang-orang Farisi dan guru-guru agama mulai mengomel. Mereka berkata, "Cih, orang ini menerima orang-orang yang tidak baik dan malah makan bersama mereka!" ³ Oleh sebab itu Yesus menceritakan kepada mereka perumpamaan ini, ⁴ "Andaikata seorang dari kalian mempunyai seratus ekor domba, lalu ia kehilangan seekor--apakah yang akan dibuatnya? Pasti ia akan meninggalkan domba yang sembilan puluh sembilan ekor itu di padang rumput, dan pergi mencari yang hilang itu sampai dapat. ⁵ Dan kalau ia menemukan kembali domba itu, ia begitu gembira sehingga dipikulnya domba itu di bahunya, ⁶ lalu membawanya pulang. Kemudian ia memanggil kawan-kawan dan tetangga-tetangganya, dan berkata, 'Mari kita bergembira. Dombaku yang hilang sudah kutemukan kembali!' ⁷ Nah, begitulah juga di surga ada kegembiraan yang lebih besar atas satu orang berdosa yang bertobat, daripada atas sembilan puluh sembilan orang yang sudah baik dan tidak perlu bertobat." ⁸ "Atau andaikata seorang wanita mempunyai sepuluh uang perak, lalu kehilangan sebuah--apakah yang akan dibuatnya? Ia akan menyalakan lampu dan menyapu rumahnya serta mencari di mana-mana sampai ditemukannya uang itu. ⁹ Pada waktu ia menemukan uang itu, ia memanggil teman-teman serta tetangga-tetangganya, lalu berkata, 'Aku senang sekali sudah menemukan kembali uangku yang hilang. Mari kita bergembira!' ¹⁰ Begitulah juga malaikat Allah gembira kalau ada satu orang jahat bertobat dari dosa-dosanya. Percayalah!" ¹¹ Yesus berkata lagi, "Adalah seorang bapak yang mempunyai dua anak laki-laki. ¹² Yang bungsu berkata kepadanya, 'Ayah, berilah kepadaku sekarang ini bagianku dari kekayaan kita.' Maka ayahnya membagi kekayaannya itu antara kedua anaknya. ¹³ Beberapa hari kemudian anak bungsu itu menjual bagian warisannya itu lalu pergi ke negeri yang jauh. Di sana ia memboroskan uangnya dengan hidup berfoya-foya. ¹⁴ Ketika uangnya sudah habis semua, terjadilah di negeri itu suatu kelaparan yang besar, sehingga ia mulai melarat. ¹⁵ Lalu ia pergi bekerja pada seorang penduduk di situ, yang menyuruh dia ke ladang menjaga babinya. ¹⁶ Ia begitu lapar sehingga ingin mengisi perutnya dengan makanan babi-babi itu. Walaupun ia begitu lapar, tidak seorang pun memberi makanan kepadanya. ¹⁷ Akhirnya ia sadar dan berkata, 'Orang-orang yang bekerja pada ayahku berlimpah-limpah makanannya, dan aku di sini hampir mati kelaparan! ¹⁸ Aku akan berangkat dan pergi kepada ayahku, dan berkata kepadanya: Ayah, aku sudah berdosa terhadap Allah dan terhadap Ayah. ¹⁹ Tidak layak lagi aku disebut anak Ayah. Anggaplah aku seorang pekerja Ayah.' ²⁰ Maka berangkatlah ia pulang kepada ayahnya. Masih jauh dari rumah, ia sudah dilihat oleh ayahnya. Dengan sangat terharu ayahnya lari menemuinya, lalu memeluk dan menciumnya. ²¹ 'Ayah,' kata anak itu, 'aku sudah berdosa terhadap Allah dan terhadap Ayah. Tidak layak lagi aku disebut anak Ayah.' ²² Tetapi ayahnya memanggil pelayan-pelayannya dan berkata, 'Cepat! Ambillah pakaian yang paling bagus, dan pakaikanlah kepadanya. Kenakanlah cincin pada jarinya, dan sepatu pada kakinya. ²³ Sesudah itu ambillah anak sapi yang gemuk dan sembelihlah. Kita akan makan dan bersukaria. ²⁴ Sebab anakku ini sudah mati, sekarang hidup lagi; ia sudah hilang, sekarang ditemukan kembali.' Lalu mulailah mereka berpesta. ²⁵ Sementara itu, anak yang sulung ada di ladang. Ketika ia pulang dan sampai di dekat rumah, ia mendengar suara musik dan tari-tarian. ²⁶ Ia memanggil salah seorang dari pelayan-pelayannya, lalu bertanya, 'Ada apa ini di rumah?' ²⁷ Pelayan itu menjawab, 'Adik Tuan kembali! Dan ayah Tuan sudah menyuruh menyembelih anak sapi yang gemuk, sebab ia sudah mendapat kembali anaknya dalam keadaan selamat!' ²⁸ Anak yang sulung itu marah sekali sehingga ia tidak mau masuk ke rumah. Lalu ayahnya keluar dan membujuk dia masuk. ²⁹ Tetapi ia berkata, 'Bertahun-tahun lamanya aku bekerja mati-matian untuk Ayah. Tidak pernah aku membantah perintah Ayah. Dan apakah yang Ayah berikan kepadaku? Seekor kambing pun belum pernah Ayah berikan untuk aku berpesta dengan kawan-kawanku! ³⁰ Anak Ayah itu sudah menghabiskan kekayaan Ayah dengan perempuan pelacur, tetapi begitu ia kembali, Ayah menyembelih anak sapi yang gemuk untuk dia!' ³¹ 'Anakku,' jawab ayahnya, 'engkau selalu ada di sini dengan aku. Semua yang kumiliki adalah milikmu juga. ³² Tetapi kita harus berpesta dan bergembira, sebab adikmu itu sudah mati, tetapi sekarang hidup lagi; ia sudah hilang, tetapi sekarang telah ditemukan kembali.'"

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ OR tutti i pubblicani e peccatori, si accostavano a lui, per udirlo. ² Ed i Farisei e gli Scribi ne mormoravano, dicendo: Costui accoglie i peccatori, e mangia con loro. ³ Ed egli disse loro questa parabola. ⁴ Chi è l’uomo d’infra voi, il quale, avendo cento pecore, se ne perde una, non lasci le novantanove nel deserto, e non vada dietro alla perduta, finchè l’abbia trovata? ⁵ Ed avendola trovata, non se la metta sopra le spalle tutto allegro? ⁶ E venuto a casa, non chiami insieme gli amici, e i vicini, dicendo: Rallegratevi meco, perciocchè io ho trovata la mia pecora, ch’era perduta? ⁷ Io vi dico, che così vi sarà letizia in cielo per un peccatore ravveduto, più che per novantanove giusti, che non hanno bisogno di ravvedimento. ⁸ Ovvero, qual’è la donna, che, avendo dieci dramme, se ne perde una, non accenda la lampana, e non ispazzi la casa, e non cerchi studiosamente, finchè l’abbia trovata? ⁹ E quando l’ha trovata, non chiami insieme le amiche, e le vicine, dicendo: Rallegratevi meco, perciocchè io ho trovata la dramma, la quale io avea perduta? ¹⁰ Così, vi dico, vi sarà allegrezza fra gli angeli di Dio, per un peccatore ravveduto. ¹¹ DISSE ancora: Un uomo avea due figliuoli. ¹² E il più giovane di loro disse al padre: Padre, dammi la parte de’ beni che mi tocca. E il padre spartì loro i beni. ¹³ E, pochi giorni appresso, il figliuol più giovane, raccolto ogni cosa, se ne andò in viaggio in paese lontano, e quivi dissipò le sue facoltà, vivendo dissolutamente. ¹⁴ E, dopo ch’egli ebbe speso ogni cosa, una grave carestia venne in quel paese, talchè egli cominciò ad aver bisogno. ¹⁵ E andò, e si mise con uno degli abitatori di quella contrada, il qual lo mandò a’ suoi campi, a pasturare i porci. ¹⁶ Ed egli desiderava d’empiersi il corpo delle silique, che i porci mangiavano, ma niuno gliene dava. ¹⁷ Ora, ritornato a sè medesimo, disse: Quanti mercenari di mio padre hanno del pane largamente, ed io mi muoio di fame! ¹⁸ Io mi leverò, e me ne andrò a mio padre, e gli dirò: Padre, io ho peccato contro al cielo, e davanti a te; ¹⁹ e non son più degno d’esser chiamato tuo figliuolo; fammi come uno de’ tuoi mercenari. ²⁰ Egli adunque si levò, e venne a suo padre; ed essendo egli ancora lontano, suo padre lo vide, e n’ebbe pietà; e corse, e gli si gettò al collo, e lo baciò. ²¹ E il figliuolo gli disse: Padre, io ho peccato contro al cielo, e davanti a te, e non son più degno d’esser chiamato tuo figliuolo. ²² Ma il padre disse a’ suoi servitori: Portate qua la più bella vesta, e vestitelo, e mettetegli un anello in dito, e delle scarpe ne’ piedi. ²³ E menate fuori il vitello ingrassato, ed ammazzatelo, e mangiamo, e rallegriamoci; ²⁴ perciocchè questo mio figliuolo era morto, ed è tornato a vita; era perduto, ed è stato ritrovato. E si misero a far gran festa. ²⁵ Or il figliuol maggiore di esso era a’ campi; e come egli se ne veniva, essendo presso della casa, udì il concento e le danze. ²⁶ E, chiamato uno de’ servitori, domandò che si volesser dire quelle cose. ²⁷ Ed egli gli disse: Il tuo fratello è venuto, e tuo padre ha ammazzato il vitello ingrassato, perciocchè l’ha ricoverato sano e salvo. ²⁸ Ma egli si adirò, e non volle entrare; laonde suo padre uscì, e lo pregava d’entrare. ²⁹ Ma egli, rispondendo, disse al padre: Ecco, già tanti anni io ti servo, e non ho giammai trapassato alcun tuo comandamento; e pur giammai tu non mi hai dato un capretto, per rallegrarmi co’ miei amici. ³⁰ Ma, quando questo tuo figliuolo, che ha mangiati i tuoi beni con le meretrici, è venuto, tu gli hai ammazzato il vitello ingrassato. ³¹ Ed egli gli disse: Figliuolo, tu sei sempre meco, e ogni cosa mia è tua. ³² Or conveniva far festa, e rallegrarsi, perciocchè questo tuo fratello era morto, ed è tornato a vita, era perduto, ed è stato ritrovato.

ItalianRiveduta⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Or tutti i pubblicani e i peccatori s’accostavano a lui per udirlo. ² E così i Farisei come gli scribi mormoravano, dicendo: Costui accoglie i peccatori e mangia con loro. ³ Ed egli disse loro questa parabola: ⁴ Chi è l’uomo fra voi, che, avendo cento pecore, se ne perde una, non lasci le novantanove nel deserto e non vada dietro alla perduta finché non l’abbia ritrovata? ⁵ E trovatala, tutto allegro se la mette sulle spalle; ⁶ e giunto a casa, chiama assieme gli amici e i vicini, e dice loro: Rallegratevi meco, perché ho ritrovato la mia pecora ch’era perduta. ⁷ Io vi dico che così vi sarà in cielo più allegrezza per un solo peccatore che si ravvede, che per novantanove giusti i quali non han bisogno di ravvedimento. ⁸ Ovvero, qual è la donna che avendo dieci dramme, se ne perde una, non accenda un lume e non spazzi la casa e non cerchi con cura finché non l’abbia ritrovata? ⁹ E quando l’ha trovata, chiama assieme le amiche e le vicine, dicendo: Rallegratevi meco, perché ho ritrovato la dramma che avevo perduta. ¹⁰ Così, vi dico, v’è allegrezza dinanzi agli angeli di Dio per un solo peccatore che si ravvede. ¹¹ Disse ancora: Un uomo avea due figliuoli; ¹² e il più giovane di loro disse al padre: Padre, dammi la parte de’ beni che mi tocca. Ed egli spartì fra loro i beni. ¹³ E di li a poco, il figliuolo più giovane, messa insieme ogni cosa, se ne partì per un paese lontano, e quivi dissipò la sua sostanza, vivendo dissolutamente. ¹⁴ E quand’ebbe speso ogni cosa, una gran carestia sopravvenne in quel paese, sicché egli cominciò ad esser nel bisogno. ¹⁵ E andò, e si mise con uno degli abitanti di quel paese, il quale lo mandò nei suoi campi, a pasturare i porci. ¹⁶ Ed egli avrebbe bramato empirsi il corpo de’ baccelli che i porci mangiavano, ma nessuno gliene dava. ¹⁷ Ma rientrato in sé, disse: Quanti servi di mio padre hanno pane in abbondanza, ed io qui mi muoio di fame! ¹⁸ Io mi leverò e me n’andrò a mio padre, e gli dirò: Padre, ho peccato contro il cielo e contro te: ¹⁹ non son più degno d’esser chiamato tuo figliuolo; trattami come uno de’ tuoi servi. ²⁰ Egli dunque si levò e venne a suo padre; ma mentr’egli era ancora lontano, suo padre lo vide e fu mosso a compassione, e corse, e gli si gettò al collo, e lo baciò e ribaciò. ²¹ E il figliuolo gli disse: Padre, ho peccato contro il cielo e contro te; non son più degno d’esser chiamato tuo figliuolo. ²² Ma il padre disse ai suoi servitori: Presto, portate qua la veste più bella e rivestitelo, e mettetegli un anello al dito e de’ calzari a’ piedi; ²³ e menate fuori il vitello ingrassato, ammazzatelo, e mangiamo e rallegriamoci, ²⁴ perché questo mio figliuolo era morto, ed è tornato a vita; era perduto, ed è stato ritrovato. E si misero a far gran festa. ²⁵ Or il figliuolo maggiore era a’ campi; e come tornando fu vicino alla casa, udì la musica e le danze. ²⁶ E chiamato a sé uno de’ servitori, gli domandò che cosa ciò volesse dire. ²⁷ Quello gli disse: E’ giunto tuo fratello, e tuo padre ha ammazzato il vitello ingrassato, perché l’ha riavuto sano e salvo. ²⁸ Ma egli si adirò e non volle entrare; onde suo padre uscì fuori e lo pregava d’entrare. ²⁹ Ma egli, rispondendo, disse al padre: Ecco, da tanti anni ti servo, e non ho mai trasgredito un tuo comando; a me però non hai mai dato neppure un capretto da far festa con i miei amici; ³⁰ ma quando è venuto questo tuo figliuolo che ha divorato i tuoi beni con le meretrici, tu hai ammazzato per lui il vitello ingrassato. ³¹ E il padre gli disse: Figliuolo, tu sei sempre meco, ed ogni cosa mia è tua; ³² ma bisognava far festa e rallegrarsi, perché questo tuo fratello era morto, ed è tornato a vita; era perduto, ed è stato ritrovato.

Latvian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Bet muitnieki un grēcinieki pulcējās ap Viņu, lai Viņu dzirdētu. ² Un farizeji un rakstu mācītāji kurnēja, sacīdami: Šis pieņem grēciniekus un ēd kopā ar viņiem. ³ Un Viņš teica tiem šo līdzību, sacīdams: ⁴ Kurš cilvēks no jums, kam simts avis, pazaudējot vienu no tām, neatstāj deviņdesmit deviņas tuksnesī un neiet meklēt to, kas pazuda, kamēr viņš to atrod? ⁵ Un viņš, atradis to, priecādamies liek savos plecos. ⁶ Un viņš, mājās pārnācis, sasauc draugus un kaimiņus un saka viņiem: Priecājieties ar mani, jo es atradu savu avi, kas bija pazudusi! ⁷ Es jums saku: tāpat debesīs būs lielāks prieks par vienu grēcinieku, kas gandara par grēkiem, nekā par deviņdesmit deviņiem taisnīgajiem, kam gandarīšanas nevajag. ⁸ Vai atkal: kura sieviete, kam desmit drahmas, pazaudējusi vienu drahmu, neiededzinās sveci un neizslaucīs māju, rūpīgi meklēdama, kamēr to neatradīs? ⁹ Un viņa, to atradusi, sasauc draudzenes un kaimiņienes, sacīdama: Priecājieties ar mani, jo es atradu drahmu, kuru biju pazaudējusi! ¹⁰ Es jums saku: tā Dieva eņģeļi priecāsies par katru grēcinieku, kas gandara par grēkiem. ¹¹ Un Viņš sacīja: Kādam cilvēkam bija divi dēli. ¹² Un jaunākais no viņiem sacīja tēvam: Tēvs, dod man pienācīgo mantas daļu! Un viņš sadalīja mantu starp tiem. ¹³ Un pēc nedaudz dienām jaunākais dēls, visu saņēmis, aizceļoja uz tālu zemi; un viņš, izšķērdīgi dzīvodams, izšķieda savu mantu. ¹⁴ Un pēc tam, kad viņš visu bija notērējis, tai zemē izcēlās liels bads; un arī viņš sāka ciest trūkumu. ¹⁵ Un viņš aizgāja un salīga pie kāda tās zemes pilsoņa; un tas aizsūtīja viņu savā saimniecībā ganīt cūkas. ¹⁶ Un viņš gribēja piepildīt savu vēderu sēnalām, ko cūkas ēda, bet neviens tam tās nedeva. ¹⁷ Bet viņš, iedziļinājies sevī, sacīja: Cik daudz algādžu mana tēva namā, kam maizes pārpilnība, bet es mirstu badā! ¹⁸ Es celšos un iešu pie sava tēva un sacīšu viņam: tēvs, es esmu grēkojis pret debesīm un pret tevi. ¹⁹ Es vairs neesmu cienīgs saukties par tavu dēlu; pieņem mani kā vienu no saviem algādžiem! ²⁰ Un cēlies viņš gāja pie sava tēva. Bet, tam vēl tālu esot, viņa tēvs to ieraudzīja un šim kļuva tā žēl; un viņš steidzās tam pretī, krita ap kaklu un skūpstīja to. ²¹ Un dēls sacīja viņam: Tēvs, es esmu grēkojis pret debesīm un pret tevi; es vairs neesmu cienīgs, ka mani sauc par tavu dēlu. ²² Bet tēvs sacīja saviem kalpiem: Steigšus atnesiet labākās drēbes un ietērpiet viņu, un sniedziet gredzenu viņa rokai un kurpes viņa kājām, ²³ Un atvediet nobarotu teļu un nokaujiet to, un ēdīsim un priecāsimies, ²⁴ Jo šis mans dēls, kas bija miris, ir atkal dzīvs; kas bija zudis, ir atkal atrasts! Un viņi sāka dzīrot. ²⁵ Bet viņa vecākais dēls bija tīrumā. Kad viņš nāca un tuvojās mājai, tas dzirdēja mūziku un līksmību. ²⁶ Un viņš, pasaucis vienu no kalpiem, jautāja, kas tas ir. ²⁷ Tas viņam sacīja: Tavs brālis pārnāca, un tavs tēvs nokāva barotu teļu, jo viņš to sagaidījis veselu. ²⁸ Bet viņš sadusmojās un negribēja iet iekšā. Tad viņa tēvs iznāca un sāka to lūgt. ²⁹ Un viņš atbildēja un sacīja savam tēvam: Lūk, tik daudz gadus es tev kalpoju un nekad tavu pavēli nepārkāpu, bet tu man nekad nedevi pat kazlēnu, lai es ar saviem draugiem sarīkotu mielastu; ³⁰ Bet kad šis tavs dēls, kas savu mantu izšķiedis ar netiklēm, pārnāca, tu nokāvi viņam nobarotu teļu. ³¹ Tad viņš tam sacīja: Dēls, tu vienmēr esi pie manis, un viss mans ir tavs; ³² Bet sarīkot mielastu un priecāties vajadzēja, jo šis tavs brālis, kas bija miris, ir dzīvs; un kas bija pazudis, ir atrasts.

Lithuanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Prie Jėzaus artindavosi visi muitininkai ir nusidėjėliai Jo pasiklausyti. ² Fariziejai ir Rašto žinovai murmėjo, sakydami: “Šitas priima nusidėjėlius ir su jais valgo”. ³ Tada Jis pasakė jiems palyginimą: ⁴ “Kas iš jūsų, turėdamas šimtą avių ir vienai nuklydus, nepalieka dykumoje devyniasdešimt devynių ir neieško pražuvusios, kol suranda? ⁵ Radęs su džiaugsmu dedasi ją ant pečių ⁶ ir, sugrįžęs namo, susikviečia draugus bei kaimynus, sakydamas: ‘Džiaukitės drauge su manimi, radau savo avį, kuri buvo pražuvusi!’ ⁷ Sakau jums, taip ir danguje bus daugiau džiaugsmo dėl vieno atgailaujančio nusidėjėlio negu dėl devyniasdešimt devynių teisiųjų, kuriems nereikia atgailos. ⁸ Arba kuri moteris, turėdama dešimtį drachmų ir vieną pametusi, neužsidega žiburio, nešluoja namų ir rūpestingai neieško, kol suranda? ⁹ Radusi susivadina drauges bei kaimynes ir sako: ‘Džiaukitės su manimi, nes radau drachmą, kurią buvau pametusi’. ¹⁰ Sakau jums, šitaip džiaugiasi Dievo angelai dėl vieno atgailaujančio nusidėjėlio”. ¹¹ Jis kalbėjo toliau: “Vienas žmogus turėjo du sūnus. ¹² Kartą jaunesnysis tarė tėvui: ‘Tėve, atiduok man priklausančią palikimo dalį’. Tėvas padalijo sūnums turtą. ¹³ Praėjus kelioms dienoms, jaunesnysis sūnus, pasiėmęs savo dalį, iškeliavo į tolimą šalį. Ten, palaidai gyvendamas, iššvaistė savo turtą. ¹⁴ Kai viską išleido, toje šalyje kilo didelis badas, ir jis pradėjo stokoti. ¹⁵ Tada apsistojo pas vieną tos šalies gyventoją. Tas jį pasiuntė į laukus kiaulių ganyti. ¹⁶ Jis geidė prikimšti pilvą bent ankštimis, kurias ėdė kiaulės, bet ir tų niekas jam neduodavo. ¹⁷ Tada susiprotėjęs jis tarė: ‘Kiek mano tėvo samdinių apsčiai turi duonos, o aš čia mirštu iš bado! ¹⁸ Kelsiuos, eisiu pas tėvą ir sakysiu: ‘Tėve, nusidėjau dangui ir tau. ¹⁹ Nesu vertas vadintis tavo sūnumi. Priimk mane bent samdiniu!’ ²⁰ Jis pakilo ir iškeliavo pas tėvą. Jam dar toli esant, tėvas jį pamatė ir, apimtas gailesčio, pribėgo, puolė ant kaklo ir meiliai pabučiavo. ²¹ O sūnus jam tarė: ‘Tėve, nusidėjau dangui ir tau, nebesu vertas vadintis tavo sūnumi’. ²² Bet tėvas įsakė savo tarnams: ‘Kuo greičiau atneškite geriausią drabužį ir apvilkite jį. Užmaukite jam ant piršto žiedą, apaukite kojas! ²³ Atveskite nupenėtą veršį ir papjaukite! Valgysim ir linksminsimės! ²⁴ Nes šis mano sūnus buvo miręs ir vėl atgijo, buvo pražuvęs ir atsirado’. Ir jie pradėjo linksmintis. ²⁵ O vyresnysis jo sūnus buvo laukuose. Kai grįždamas prisiartino prie namų, išgirdo muziką ir šokius. ²⁶ Pasišaukęs vieną iš tarnų, jis paklausė, kas čia dedasi. ²⁷ Tas jam atsakė: ‘Sugrįžo tavo brolis, tai tėvas papjovė nupenėtą veršį, nes sulaukė jo sveiko’. ²⁸ Tada šis supyko ir nenorėjo eiti vidun. Tėvas išėjęs ėmė jį kviesti. ²⁹ O jis atsakė tėvui: ‘Štai jau tiek metų tau tarnauju ir niekad tavo įsakymo neperžengiau, o tu man nė karto nedavei nė ožiuko pasilinksminti su draugais. ³⁰ Bet vos tik sugrįžo šitas tavo sūnus, prarijęs tavo turtą su kekšėmis, tu tuojau papjovei jam nupenėtą veršį’. ³¹ Tėvas atsakė: ‘Sūnau, tu visuomet su manimi, ir visa, kas mano, yra ir tavo. ³² Bet reikėjo džiaugtis ir linksmintis, nes tavo brolis buvo miręs ir vėl atgijo, buvo pražuvęs ir atsirado!’ ”

PBG⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ I przybliżali się do niego wszyscy celnicy i grzesznicy, aby go słuchali. ² I szemrali Faryzeuszowie i nauczeni w Piśmie, mówiąc: Ten grzeszniki przyjmuje i je z nimi. ³ I powiedział im to podobieństwo, mówiąc: ⁴ Któryż z was człowiek, gdyby miał sto owiec, a straciłby jednę z nich, izali nie zostawia onych dziewięćdziesięciu i dziewięciu na puszczy, a nie idzie za oną, która zginęła, ażby ją znalazł? ⁵ A znalazłszy kładzie ją na ramiona swoje, radując się. ⁶ A przyszedłszy do domu, zwołuje przyjaciół, i sąsiadów, mówiąc im: Radujcie się ze mną; bom znalazł owcę, która była zginęła. ⁷ Powiadam wam, że taka będzie radość w niebie nad jednym grzesznikiem pokutującym, więcej niż nad dziewięćdziesiąt i dziewięciu sprawiedliwych, którzy nie potrzebują pokuty. ⁸ Albo która niewiasta mając dziesięć groszy, jeźliby straciła grosz jeden, izali nie zapala świecy, i nie umiata domu, a nie szuka z pilnością, ażby znalazła? ⁹ A znalazłszy, zwołuje przyjaciółek i sąsiadek, mówiąc: Radujcie się ze mną; albowiem znalazłam grosz, którym była straciła. ¹⁰ Tak, powiadam wam, będzie radość przed Anioły Bożymi nad jednym grzesznikiem pokutującym. ¹¹ Nadto rzekł: Człowiek niektóry miał dwóch synów, ¹² I rzekł młodszy z nich ojcu: Ojcze! daj mi dział majętności na mię przypadający. I rozdzielił im majętność. ¹³ A po niewielu dniach, zebrawszy wszystko on młodszy syn, odjechał w daleką krainę, i rozproszył tam majętność swoję, żyjąc rozpustnie. ¹⁴ A gdy wszystko potracił, stał się głód wielki w onej krainie, a on począł niedostatek cierpieć. ¹⁵ A tak szedłszy, przystał do jednego mieszczanina onej krainy, który go posłał do folwarku swego, aby pasł świnie. ¹⁶ I żądał napełnić brzuch swój młótem, które jadały świnie; ale mu nikt nie dawał. ¹⁷ Potem przyszedłszy do siebie, rzekł: O jako wiele najemników ojca mego mają dosyć chleba, a ja od głodu ginę! ¹⁸ Wstawszy tedy, pójdę do ojca mego i rzekę mu: Ojcze! zgrzeszyłem przeciwko niebu i przed tobą. ¹⁹ I nie jestem godzien więcej być nazywany synem twoim, uczyń mię jako jednego z najemników twoich. ²⁰ Tedy wstawszy, szedł do ojca swego. A gdy on jeszcze był opodal, ujrzał go ojciec jego, i użaliwszy się go, przybieżał, a padłszy na szyję jego, pocałował go. ²¹ I rzekł mu syn: Ojcze! zgrzeszyłem przeciwko niebu i przed tobą, i jużem nie jest godzien, abym był nazywany synem twoim. ²² Rzekł tedy ojciec do sług swoich: Przynieście onę przednią szatę, a obleczcie go, i dajcie pierścień na rękę jego, i obuwie na nogi jego. ²³ A przywiódłszy ono tłuste cielę, zabijcie, a jedząc bądźmy weseli. ²⁴ Albowiem ten syn mój umarł był, a zasię ożył; zginął był, i znaleziony jest; i poczęli się weselić. ²⁵ Ale starszy syn jego był na polu; a gdy przychodząc przybliżył się ku domowi, usłyszał muzykę i tańce; ²⁶ A zawoławszy jednego z sług, pytał, co by to było. ²⁷ A on mu powiedział: Brat twój przyszedł, i zabił ojciec twój ono tłuste cielę, iż go zdrowego dostał. ²⁸ I rozgniewał się, a nie chciał wnijść; ale ojciec jego wyszedłszy prosił go. ²⁹ A on odpowiadając, rzekł ojcu: Oto przez tak wiele lat służę tobie, a nigdym nie przestąpił przykazania twego; wszakżeś mi nigdy nie dał koźlęcia, abym się z przyjacioły moimi weselił. ³⁰ Ale gdy ten syn twój, który pożarł majętność twoję z wszetecznicami, przyszedł, zabiłeś mu ono tłuste cielę. ³¹ A on mu rzekł; Synu! tyś zawsze ze mną, a wszystkie dobra moje twoje są. ³² Lecz trzeba było weselić się i radować, że ten brat twój umarł był, a zasię ożył, i zginął był a znaleziony jest.

Portuguese⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Ora, chegavam-se a ele todos os publicanos e pecadores para o ouvir. ² E os fariseus e os escribas murmuravam, dizendo: Este recebe pecadores, e come com eles. ³ Então ele lhes propôs esta parábola: ⁴ Qual de vós é o homem que, possuindo cem ovelhas, e perdendo uma delas, não deixa as noventa e nove no deserto, e não vai após a perdida até que a encontre? ⁵ E achando-a, põe-na sobre os ombros, cheio de júbilo; ⁶ e chegando a casa, reúne os amigos e vizinhos e lhes diz: Alegrai-vos comigo, porque achei a minha ovelha que se havia perdido. ⁷ Digo-vos que assim haverá maior alegria no céu por um pecador que se arrepende, do que por noventa e nove justos que não necessitam de arrependimento. ⁸ Ou qual é a mulher que, tendo dez dracmas e perdendo uma dracma, não acende a candeia, e não varre a casa, buscando com diligência até encontrá-la? ⁹ E achando-a, reúne as amigas e vizinhas, dizendo: Alegrai-vos comigo, porque achei a dracma que eu havia perdido. ¹⁰ Assim, digo-vos, há alegria na presença dos anjos de Deus por um só pecador que se arrepende. ¹¹ Disse-lhe mais: Certo homem tinha dois filhos. ¹² O mais moço deles disse ao pai: Pai, dá-me a parte dos bens que me toca. Repartiu-lhes, pois, os seus haveres. ¹³ Poucos dias depois, o filho mais moço ajuntando tudo, partiu para um país distante, e ali desperdiçou os seus bens, vivendo dissolutamente. ¹⁴ E, havendo ele dissipado tudo, houve naquela terra uma grande fome, e começou a passar necessidades. ¹⁵ Então foi encontrar-se a um dos cidadãos daquele país, o qual o mandou para os seus campos a apascentar porcos. ¹⁶ E desejava encher o estômago com as alfarrobas que os porcos comiam; e ninguém lhe dava nada. ¹⁷ Caindo, porém, em si, disse: Quantos empregados de meu pai têm abundância de pão, e eu aqui pereço de fome! ¹⁸ Levantar-me-ei, irei ter com meu pai e dir-lhe-ei: Pai, pequei contra o céu e diante de ti; ¹⁹ já não sou digno de ser chamado teu filho; trata-me como um dos teus empregados. ²⁰ Levantou-se, pois, e foi para seu pai. Estando ele ainda longe, seu pai o viu, encheu-se de compaixão e, correndo, lançou-se-lhe ao pescoço e o beijou. ²¹ Disse-lhe o filho: Pai, pequei conta o céu e diante de ti; já não sou digno de ser chamado teu filho. ²² Mas o pai disse aos seus servos: Trazei depressa a melhor roupa, e vesti-lha, e ponde-lhe um anel no dedo e alparcas nos pés; ²³ trazei também o bezerro, cevado e matai-o; comamos, e regozijemo-nos, ²⁴ porque este meu filho estava morto, e reviveu; tinha-se perdido, e foi achado. E começaram a regozijar-se. ²⁵ Ora, o seu filho mais velho estava no campo; e quando voltava, ao aproximar-se de casa, ouviu a música e as danças; ²⁶ e chegando um dos servos, perguntou-lhe que era aquilo. ²⁷ Respondeu-lhe este: Chegou teu irmão; e teu pai matou o bezerro cevado, porque o recebeu são e salvo. ²⁸ Mas ele se indignou e não queria entrar. Saiu então o pai e instava com ele. ²⁹ Ele, porém, respondeu ao pai: Eis que há tantos anos te sirvo, e nunca transgredi um mandamento teu; contudo nunca me deste um cabrito para eu me regozijar com meus amigos; ³⁰ vindo, porém, este teu filho, que desperdiçou os teus bens com as meretrizes, mataste-lhe o bezerro cevado. ³¹ Replicou-lhe o pai: Filho, tu sempre estás comigo, e tudo o que é meu é teu; ³² era justo, porém, regozijarmo-nos e alegramo-nos, porque este teu irmão estava morto, e reviveu; tinha-se perdido, e foi achado.

Norwegian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Og alle toldere og syndere holdt sig nær til ham for å høre ham. ² Og både fariseerne og de skriftlærde knurret sig imellem og sa: Denne mann tar imot syndere og eter sammen med dem! ³ Da talte han denne lignelse til dem: ⁴ Hvilket menneske iblandt eder som har hundre får og mister ett av dem, forlater ikke de ni og nitti i ørkenen og går efter det han har mistet, til han finner det? ⁵ Og når han har funnet det, legger han det på sine skuldrer med glede, ⁶ og når han kommer hjem, kaller han sine venner og granner sammen og sier til dem: Gled eder med mig, for jeg har funnet mitt får som jeg hadde mistet! ⁷ Jeg sier eder: Således skal det være glede i himmelen over én synder som omvender sig, mere enn over ni og nitti rettferdige som ikke trenger til omvendelse. ⁸ Eller hvilken kvinne som har ti sølvpenninger og mister én av dem, tender ikke lys og feier sitt hus og leter med flid til hun finner den? ⁹ Og når hun har funnet den, kaller hun sine venninner og grannekvinner sammen og sier: Gled eder med mig, for jeg har funnet sølvpenningen som jeg hadde mistet! ¹⁰ Således, sier jeg eder, blir det glede for Guds engler over én synder som omvender sig. ¹¹ Og han sa: En mann hadde to sønner, ¹² og den yngste av dem sa til sin far: Far! gi mig den del av boet som faller på mig! Og han skiftet sin eiendom imellem dem. ¹³ Og ikke mange dager derefter samlet den yngste sønn alt sitt og drog til et land langt borte, og der ødte han sin eiendom i et ryggesløst levnet. ¹⁴ Men da han hadde satt alt over styr, blev det en svær hunger i det land, og han begynte å lide nød. ¹⁵ Da gikk han bort og holdt sig til en av borgerne der i landet, og han sendte ham ut på sine marker for å gjæte svin; ¹⁶ og hans attrå var å fylle sin buk med de skolmer som svinene åt, og ingen gav ham noget. ¹⁷ Men da kom han til sig selv og sa: Hvor mange leiefolk hos min far har fullt op av brød, men jeg setter livet til her av sult! ¹⁸ Jeg vil stå op og gå til min far og si til ham: Far! jeg har syndet mot himmelen og for dig; ¹⁹ jeg er ikke verdig lenger til å kalles din sønn; la mig få være som en av dine leiefolk! ²⁰ Og han stod op og kom til sin far. Men da han ennu var langt borte, så hans far ham, og han ynkedes inderlig, og løp til og falt ham om halsen og kysset ham. ²¹ Men sønnen sa til ham: Far! jeg har syndet mot himmelen og for dig, og jeg er ikke verdig lenger til å kalles din sønn. ²² Men faren sa til sine tjenere: Ta frem den beste klædning og ha den på ham, og gi ham en ring på hans hånd og sko på hans føtter, ²³ og hent gjøkalven og slakt den, og la oss ete og være glade! ²⁴ For denne min sønn var død og er blitt levende igjen, var tapt og er funnet. Og de begynte å være glade. ²⁵ Men hans eldste sønn var ute på marken, og da han gikk hjemover og kom nær til huset, hørte han spill og dans; ²⁶ og han kalte en av tjenerne til sig og spurte hvad dette var. ²⁷ Han sa til ham: Din bror er kommet, og din far lot slakte gjøkalven, fordi han fikk ham frisk tilbake. ²⁸ Da blev han vred og vilde ikke gå inn. Hans far gikk da ut og talte vennlig til ham; ²⁹ men han svarte og sa til sin far: Se, i så mange år har jeg tjent dig, og aldri har jeg gjort imot ditt bud, og mig har du aldri gitt et kje forat jeg kunde være glad med mine venner; ³⁰ men da denne din sønn kom, han som har ett op din eiendom sammen med skjøger, da slaktet du gjøkalven for ham! ³¹ Men han sa til ham: Barn! du er alltid hos mig, og alt mitt er ditt; ³² men vi burde fryde og glede oss fordi denne din bror var død og er blitt levende, var tapt og er funnet.

Romanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Toţi vameşii şi păcătoşii se apropiau de Isus ca să -L asculte. ² Şi Fariseii şi cărturarii cîrteau şi ziceau:,,Omul acesta primeşte pe păcătoşi, şi mănîncă cu ei.`` ³ Dar El le -a spus pilda aceasta: ⁴ ,,Care om dintre voi, dacă are o sută de oi, şi pierde pe una din ele, nu lasă pe celelalte nouăzeci şi nouă pe islaz, şi se duce după cea pierdută, pînă cînd o găseşte? ⁵ După ce a găsit -o, o pune cu bucurie pe umeri; ⁶ şi, cînd se întoarce acasă, cheamă pe prietenii şi vecinii săi, şi le zice:,Bucuraţi-vă împreună cu mine, căci mi-am găsit oaia care era pierdută.` ⁷ Tot aşa, vă spun că va fi mai multă bucurie în cer pentru un singur păcătos care se pocăieşte, decît pentru nouă zeci şi nouă de oameni neprihăniţi cari n'au nevoie de pocăinţă. ⁸ Sau care femeie, dacă are zece lei (Greceşte: drahme.) de argint, şi pierde unul din ei, nu aprinde o lumină, nu mătură casa, şi nu caută cu băgare de seamă pînă cînd îl găseşte? ⁹ După ce l -a găsit, cheamă pe prietenele şi vecinele ei, şi zice:,Bucuraţi-vă împreună cu mine, căci am găsit leul, pe care -l pierdusem.` ¹⁰ Tot aşa, vă spun că este bucurie înaintea îngerilor lui Dumnezeu pentru un singur păcătos care se pocăieşte.`` ¹¹ El a mai zis:,,Un om avea doi fii. ¹² Cel mai tînăr din ei a zis tatălui său:,Tată, dă-mi partea de avere, ce mi se cuvine.` Şi tatăl le -a împărţit averea. ¹³ Nu după multe zile, fiul cel mai tînăr a strîns totul, şi a plecat într'o ţară depărtată, unde şi -a risipit averea, ducînd o viaţă destrăbălată. ¹⁴ După ce a cheltuit totul, a venit o foamete mare în ţara aceea, şi el a început să ducă lipsă. ¹⁵ Atunci s'a dus şi s'a lipit de unul din locuitorii ţării aceleia, care l -a trimes pe ogoarele lui să -i păzească porcii. ¹⁶ Mult ar fi dorit el să se sature cu roşcovele, pe cari le mîncau porcii, dar nu i le da nimeni. ¹⁷ Şi -a venit în fire, şi a zis:,Cîţi argaţi ai tatălui meu au belşug de pîne, iar eu mor de foame aici! ¹⁸ Mă voi scula, mă voi duce la tatăl meu, şi -i voi zice: Tată, am păcătuit împotriva cerului şi împotriva ta, ¹⁹ şi nu mai sînt vrednic să mă chem fiul tău; fă-mă ca pe unul din argaţii tăi.` ²⁰ Şi s'a sculat, şi a plecat la tatăl său. Cînd era încă departe, tatăl său l -a văzut, şi i s'a făcut milă de el, a alergat de a căzut pe grumazul lui, şi l -a sărutat mult. ²¹ Fiul i -a zis:,Tată, am păcătuit împotriva cerului şi împotriva ta, nu mai sînt vrednic să mă chem fiul tău.` ²² Dar tatăl a zis robilor săi:,Aduceţi repede haina cea mai bună, şi îmbrăcaţi -l cu ea; puneţi -i un inel în deget, şi încălţăminte în picioare. ²³ Aduceţi viţelul cel îngrăşat, şi tăiaţi -l. Să mîncăm şi să ne veselim; ²⁴ căci acest fiu al meu era mort, şi a înviat; era pierdut, şi a fost găsit.` Şi au început să se veselească. ²⁵ Fiul cel mai mare era la ogor. Cînd a venit şi s'a apropiat de casă, a auzit muzică şi jocuri. ²⁶ A chemat pe unul din robi, şi a început să -l întrebe ce este. ²⁷ Robul acela i -a răspuns:,Fratele tău a venit înapoi, şi tatăl tău a tăiat viţelul cel îngrăşat, pentrucă l -a găsit iarăş sănătos şi bine.` ²⁸ El s'a întărîtat de mînie, şi nu voia să intre în casă. Tatăl său a ieşit afară, şi l -a rugat să intre. ²⁹ Dar el, drept răspuns, a zis tatălui său:,Iată, eu îţi slujesc ca un rob de atîţia ani, şi niciodată nu ţi-am călcat porunca; şi mie niciodată nu mi-ai dat măcar un ied să mă veselesc cu prietenii mei; ³⁰ iar cînd a venit acest fiu al tău, care ţi -a mîncat averea cu femeile desfrînate, i-ai tăiat viţelul cel îngrăşat.` ³¹ ,Fiule`, i -a zis tatăl,,tu întotdeauna eşti cu mine, şi tot ce am eu este al tău. ³² Dar trebuia să ne veselim şi să ne bucurăm, pentrucă acest frate al tău era mort, şi a înviat, era pierdut şi a fost găsit.``

Ukrainian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Наближались до Нього всі митники й грішники, щоб послухати Його. ² Фарисеї ж та книжники нарікали й казали: Приймає Він грішників та з ними їсть. ³ А Він їм розповів оцю притчу, говорячи: ⁴ Котрий з вас чоловік, мавши сотню овець і загубивши одну з них, не покине в пустині тих дев'ятидесяти й дев'яти, та й не піде шукати загинулої, аж поки не знайде її? ⁵ А знайшовши, кладе на рамена свої та радіє. ⁶ І, прийшовши додому, скликає він друзів і сусідів, та й каже до них: Радійте зо мною, бо знайшов я вівцю свою тую загублену. ⁷ Говорю вам, що так само на небі радітимуть більш за одного грішника, що кається, аніж за дев'ятдесятьох і дев'ятьох праведників, що не потребують покаяння!... ⁸ Або яка жінка, що має десять драхм, коли згубить драхму одну, не засвічує світла, і не мете хати, і не шукає уважно, аж поки не знайде? ⁹ А знайшовши, кличе приятельок та сусідок та каже: Радійте зо мною, бо знайшла я загублену драхму! ¹⁰ Так само, кажу вам, радість буває в Божих Анголів за одного грішника, який кається. ¹¹ І Він оповів: У чоловіка одного було два сини. ¹² І молодший із них сказав батькові: Дай мені, батьку, належну частину маєтку! І той поділив поміж ними маєток. ¹³ А по небагатьох днях зібрав син молодший усе, та й подавсь до далекого краю, і розтратив маєток свій там, живучи марнотратно. ¹⁴ А як він усе прожив, настав голод великий у тім краї, і він став бідувати. ¹⁵ І пішов він тоді і пристав до одного з мешканців тієї землі, а той вислав його на поля свої пасти свиней. ¹⁶ І бажав він наповнити шлунка свого хоч стручками, що їли їх свині, та ніхто не давав їх йому. ¹⁷ Тоді він спам'ятався й сказав: Скільки в батька мого наймитів мають хліба аж надмір, а я отут з голоду гину! ¹⁸ Устану, і піду я до батька свого, та й скажу йому: Прогрішився я, отче, против неба та супроти тебе... ¹⁹ Недостойний я вже зватись сином твоїм; прийми ж мене, як одного з своїх наймитів... ²⁰ І, вставши, пішов він до батька свого. А коли він далеко ще був, його батько вгледів його, і переповнився жалем: і побіг він, і кинувсь на шию йому, і зачав цілувати його! ²¹ І озвався до нього той син: Прогрішився я, отче, против неба та супроти тебе, і недостойний вже зватися сином твоїм... ²² А батько рабам своїм каже: Принесіть негайно одежу найкращу, і його зодягніть, і персня подайте на руку йому, а сандалі на ноги. ²³ Приведіть теля відгодоване та заколіть, будемо їсти й радіти, ²⁴ бо цей син мій був мертвий і ожив, був пропав і знайшовся! І почали веселитись вони. ²⁵ А син старший його був на полі. І коли він ішов й наближався до дому, почув музики та танці. ²⁶ І покликав одного зо слуг, та й спитав: Що це таке? ²⁷ А той каже йому: То вернувся твій брат, і твій батько звелів заколоти теля відгодоване, бож здоровим його він прийняв. ²⁸ І розгнівався той, і ввійти не хотів. Тоді вийшов батько його й став просити його. ²⁹ А той відповів і до батька сказав: Ото, стільки років служу я тобі, і ніколи наказу твого не порушив, ти ж ніколи мені й козеняти не дав, щоб із приятелями своїми потішився я... ³⁰ Коли ж син твій вернувся оцей, що проїв твій маєток із блудницями, ти для нього звелів заколоти теля відгодоване... ³¹ І сказав він йому: Ти завжди зо мною, дитино, і все моє то твоє! ³² Веселитись та тішитись треба було, бо цей брат твій був мертвий і ожив, був пропав і знайшовся!

UkrainianNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Приближували ся ж до Него всї митники й грішники, слухати Його. ² І нарекали Фарисеї та письменники, кажучи: Шо сей грішників приймав і їсть із ними. ³ Сказав же до них приповість сю, глаголючи: ⁴ Которий чоловік з вас, мавши сотню овечок, та загубивши одну з них, не зоставить девятьдесять і девять у степу, та не пійде за загубленою, доки знайде її? ⁵ А знайшовши положить на плечї собі, радїючи. ⁶ І, прийшовши до дому, скликає другів та сусїд, кажучи їм: Радуйтесь зо мною, бо я знайшов овечку мою загублену. ⁷ Глаголю вам, що оттак радість буде на небі над одним грішником каючим ся, більше ніж над девятьдесять і девятьма праведниками, котрим не треба покаяння. ⁸ Або котора жінка, мавши десять драхім, коли згубить драхму одну, не сьвітить сьвітла, та не вимітає хати, та не шукає пильно, доки знайде? ⁹ А знайшовши кличе подруг та сусїдок, кажучи: Радуйтесь зо мною, бо я знайшла драхму, що була згубила. ¹⁰ Так, глаголю вам, радість буде перед ангелами Божими над одним грішником каючим ся. ¹¹ Рече ж: Один чоловік мав два сини, ¹² і сказав молодший з них батькові: Отче, дай мені частину маєтку, що впадав мені. І розділив їм прожиток. ¹³ І не по многих днях, зібравши все молодший син, від'їхав у землю далеку, та й протратив там маєток свій, живучи блудно. ¹⁴ Як же проїв усе, настала голоднеча велика в землі тій; і почав він терпіти недостаток. ¹⁵ І пійшовши пристав до одного з міщан землї тієї; і післав той його на поля свої пасти свині. ¹⁶ І бажав він сповнити живіт свій лушпиннєм, що їли свинї, та й ніхто не давав йому. ¹⁷ Опамятавшись же, сказав: Скільки наймитів у батька мого надто мають хлїба! я ж голодом погибаю. ¹⁸ Уставши, пійду до батька мого, й скажу йому: Отче, згрішив я на небо й перед тобою, ¹⁹ і вже недостоен зватись сином твоїм; прийми мене як одного з наймитів твоїх. ²⁰ І вставши пійшов до батька свого. Ще ж він далеко був, побачив його батько його, й змилосердивсь, і побігши упав на шию йому, й поцілував його. ²¹ Каже ж йому син: Отче, згрішив я на небо й перед тобою, і вже не достоєн зватись сином твоїм. ²² Каже ж батько до слуг своїх: принесіть шату найпершу та й одягнїть його; й дайте перстень на руку йому, й чоботи на ноги; ²³ і, привівши теля годоване, заколїть і ївши веселїмось: ²⁴ бо сей син мій мертвий був, та й ожив; згинув був, та й знайшов ся. І почали веселитись. ²⁵ Був же син його старший на полі, і, як ідучи зближавсь до господи, почув сьпіви да танцї. ²⁶ І покликавши одного з слуг, питав, що б се було таке. ²⁷ Той же каже йому: Що брат твій прийшов, і заколов батько твій теля годоване, що здорового його прийняв. ²⁸ Розсердив ся ж і не схотів увійти. Оце ж батько його вийшовши просив його. ²⁹ Він же, озвавшись, рече батькові: Ось стільки літ служу тобі, й нїколи заповіді твоєї не переступив, та, й ніколи мені не дав єси козеняти, щоб з приятелями моїми повеселитись; ³⁰ як же син твій сей, проївши свій прожиток з блудницями, прийшов, заколов єси йому теля годоване. ³¹ Він же рече йому: Дитино, ти: все зо мною єси, і все, що моє, твоє; ³² веселити ж ся і радувати ся треба було, що брат твій сей мертвий був, та й ожив, і згинув був, та й знайшов ся.
