# Chapter 15
|
||||
1. All the tax collectors and sinners were approaching to listen to him.
|
||||
2. And the Pharisees and scribes were complaining, "This man welcomes sinners and eats with them."
|
||||
|
||||
3. So he told them this parable:
|
||||
4. *"What man among you, who has a hundred sheep and loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open field and go after the lost one until he finds it?*
|
||||
5. *When he has found it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders,*
|
||||
6. *and coming home, he calls his friends and neighbors together, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, because I have found my lost sheep!'*
|
||||
7. *I tell you, in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who don't need repentance.*The
|
||||
Parable of the Lost Coin
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
8. *"Or what woman who has ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it?*
|
||||
9. *When she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying, 'Rejoice with me, because I have found the silver coin I lost!'*
|
||||
10. *I tell you, in the same way, there is joy in the presence of God's angels over one sinner who repents."*The
|
||||
Parable of the Lost Son
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
11. He also said, *"A man had two sons.*
|
||||
12. *The younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the share of the estate I have coming to me.' So he distributed the assets to them.*
|
||||
13. *Not many days later, the younger son gathered together all he had and traveled to a distant country, where he squandered his estate in foolish living.*
|
||||
14. *After he had spent everything, a severe famine struck that country, and he had nothing.*
|
||||
15. *Then he went to work for one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed pigs.*
|
||||
16. *He longed to eat his fill from the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one would give him anything.*
|
||||
17. *When he came to his senses, he said, 'How many of my father's hired workers have more than enough food, and here I am dying of hunger!*
|
||||
18. *I'll get up, go to my father, and say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight.*
|
||||
19. *I'm no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired workers."'*
|
||||
20. *So he got up and went to his father. But while the son was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion. He ran, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him.*
|
||||
21. *The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight. I'm no longer worthy to be called your son.'*
|
||||
|
||||
22. *"But the father told his servants, 'Quick! Bring out the best robe and put it on him; put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.*
|
||||
23. *Then bring the fattened calf and slaughter it, and let's celebrate with a feast,*
|
||||
24. *because this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found!' So they began to celebrate.*
|
||||
|
||||
25. *"Now his older son was in the field; as he came near the house, he heard music and dancing.*
|
||||
26. *So he summoned one of the servants, questioning what these things meant.*
|
||||
27. *'Your brother is here,' he told him, 'and your father has slaughtered the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.'*
|
||||
|
||||
28. *"Then he became angry and didn't want to go in. So his father came out and pleaded with him.*
|
||||
29. *But he replied to his father, 'Look, I have been slaving many years for you, and I have never disobeyed your orders, yet you never gave me a goat so that I could celebrate with my friends.*
|
||||
30. *But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your assets with prostitutes, you slaughtered the fattened calf for him.'*
|
||||
|
||||
31. *"'Son,' he said to him, '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 is alive again; he was lost and is found.'"*
