Lk Chapter 15 Verses 1-32
15:1
|
Now
|
all
|
the
|
|
tax-farmers
|
and
sinners
|
came
|
near to
|
give
|
ear
|
to
|
him.
15:2
|
And
|
the
Pharisees
|
and
|
scribes
|
were
|
angry,
|
saying,
|
This
|
man
|
gives
|
approval
|
to
sinners,
|
and
|
takes
|
food
|
with
|
them.
15:3
|
And
|
he
|
made
|
a
|
story
|
for
|
them,
|
saying,
15:4
|
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?
15:5
|
And
|
when
|
he
|
has
|
got
|
it
|
again,
|
he
|
takes
|
it
|
in
|
his
|
arms
|
with
|
joy.
15:6
|
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.
15:7
|
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.
15:8
|
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?
15:9
|
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.
|
15:10
Even
|
so,
|
I
|
say
|
to
|
you,
|
There
|
is
|
joy
|
among
|
the
|
angels
|
of
|
God,
|
when
|
one
sinner
|
is
|
turned
|
away from
|
his
wrongdoing.
15:11
|
And
|
he
|
said,
|
A
|
certain
|
man
|
had
|
two
|
sons:
15:12
|
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.
15:13
|
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.
15:14
|
And
|
when
|
everything
|
was
|
gone,
|
there
|
was
|
no food
to
|
be
|
had
|
in
|
that
|
country,
|
and
|
he
|
was
|
in
|
need.
|
15:15
|
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.
15:16
|
And
|
so
|
great
|
was
|
his
|
need
|
that
|
he
|
would
|
have been
|
glad
to
|
take
|
the
|
pigs’
|
food,
|
and
|
no
|
one
|
gave
|
him
|
anything.
15:17
|
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!
15:18
|
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:
15:19
|
I
|
am
|
no
|
longer
|
good
|
enough
to
|
be
|
named
|
your
|
son:
|
make
|
me
|
like
|
one
|
of
|
your
|
servants.
15:20
|
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.
15:21
|
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.
15:22
|
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:
15:23
|
And
|
get
|
the
|
fat
|
young
|
ox
|
and
|
put
|
it
|
to
|
death,
|
and
|
let
|
us
|
have
|
a
|
feast,
|
and
|
be
|
glad.
15:24
|
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.
|
15:25
|
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.
15:26
|
And
|
he
|
sent
|
for
|
one
|
of
|
the
|
servants,
|
questioning
|
him
|
about
|
what
|
it
|
might
|
be.
15:27
|
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.
15:28
|
But
|
he
|
was
|
angry
|
and
|
would not
|
go
|
in;
|
and
|
his
|
father
|
came out
|
and
|
made
|
a
|
request
|
to
|
him
to
|
come in.
15:29
|
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:
|
15:30
|
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.
15:31
|
And
|
he
|
said
|
to
|
him,
|
Son,
|
you
|
are
|
with
|
me
|
at
|
all
|
times,
|
and
|
all
|
I
|
have
|
is
|
yours.
15:32
|
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.
