1 Then 1161 drew near 2258 1448 unto him 846 all 3956 the publicans 5057 and 2532 sinners 268 for to hear 191 him 846.

2 And 2532 the Pharisees 5330 and 2532 scribes 1122 murmured 1234, saying 3004, This man 3754 3778 receiveth 4327 sinners 268, and 2532 eateth 4906 with them 846.

3 And 1161 he spake 2036 this 5026 parable 3850 unto 4314 them 846, saying 3004,

4 What 5101 man 444 of 1537 you 5216, having 2192 an hundred 1540 sheep 4263, if 2532 he lose 622 one 1520 of 1537 them 846, doth 2641 0 not 3756 leave 2641 the ninety and nine 1768 in 1722 the wilderness 2048, and 2532 go 4198 after 1909 that which is lost 622, until 2193 he find 2147 it 846?

5 And 2532 when he hath found 2147 it, he layeth 2007 it on 1909 his 1438 shoulders 5606, rejoicing 5463.

6 And 2532 when he cometh 2064 1519 home 3624, he calleth together 4779 his friends 5384 and 2532 neighbours 1069, saying 3004 unto them 846, Rejoice 4796 with me 3427; for 3754 I have found 2147 my 3450 sheep 4263 which 3588 was lost 622.

7 I say 3004 unto you 5213, that 3754 likewise 3779 joy 5479 shall be 2071 in 1722 heaven 3772 over 1909 one 1520 sinner 268 that repenteth 3340, more than 2228 over 1909 ninety and nine 1768 just persons 1342, which 3748 need 2192 5532 no 3756 repentance 3341.

8 Either 2228 what 5101 woman 1135 having 2192 ten 1176 pieces of silver 1406, if 1437 she lose 622 one 3391 piece 1406, doth not 3780 light 681 a candle 3088, and 2532 sweep 4563 the house 3614, and 2532 seek 2212 diligently 1960 till 2193 3755 she find 2147 it?

9 And 2532 when she hath found 2147 it, she calleth 4779 0 her friends 5384 and 2532 her neighbours 1069 together 4779, saying 3004, Rejoice 4796 with me 3427; for 3754 I have found 2147 the piece 1406 which 3739 I had lost 622.

10 Likewise 3779, I say 3004 unto you 5213, there is 1096 joy 5479 in the presence 1799 of the angels 32 of God 2316 over 1909 one 1520 sinner 268 that repenteth 3340.

11 And 1161 he said 2036, A certain 5100 man 444 had 2192 two 1417 sons 5207:

12 And 2532 the younger 3501 of them 846 said 2036 to his father 3962, Father 3962, give 1325 me 3427 the portion 3313 of goods 3776 that falleth 1911 to me. And 2532 he divided 1244 unto them 846 his living 979.

13 And 2532 not 3756 many 4183 days 2250 after 3326 the younger 3501 son 5207 gathered 4863 0 all 537 together 4863, and took his journey 589 into 1519 a far 3117 country 5561, and 2532 there 1563 wasted 1287 his 848 substance 3776 with riotous 811 living 2198.

14 And 1161 when he 846 had spent 1159 all 3956, there arose 1096 a mighty 2478 famine 3042 in 2596 that 1565 land 5561; and 2532 he began 756 to be in want 5302.

15 And 2532 he went 4198 and joined himself 2853 to 1520 a citizen 4177 of that 1565 country 5561; and 2532 he sent 3992 him 846 into 1519 his 848 fields 68 to feed 1006 swine 5519.

16 And 2532 he would fain 1937 have filled 1072 his 848 belly 2836 with 575 the husks 2769 that 3739 the swine 5519 did eat 2068: and 2532 no man 3762 gave 1325 unto him 846.

17 And 1161 when he came 2064 to 1519 himself 1438, he said 2036, How many 4214 hired servants 3407 of my 3450 father's 3962 have bread 740 enough and to spare 4052, and 1161 I 1473 perish 622 with hunger 3042!

18 I will arise 450 and go 4198 to 4314 my 3450 father 3962, and 2532 will say 2046 unto him 846, Father 3962, I have sinned 264 against 1519 heaven 3772, and 2532 before 1799 thee 4675,

19 And 2532 am 1510 no more 3765 worthy 514 to be called 2564 thy 4675 son 5207: make 4160 me 3165 as 5613 one 1520 of thy 4675 hired servants 3407.

20 And 2532 he arose 450, and came 2064 to 4314 his 1438 father 3962. But 1161 when he 846 was yet 2089 a great way 3112 off 568, his 846 father 3962 saw 1492 him 846, and 2532 had compassion 4697, and 2532 ran 5143, and fell 1968 on 1909 his 846 neck 5137, and 2532 kissed 2705 him 846.

21 And 1161 the son 5207 said 2036 unto him 846, Father 3962, I have sinned 264 against 1519 heaven 3772, and 2532 in 1799 0 thy 4675 sight 1799, and 2532 am 1510 no more 3765 worthy 514 to be called 2564 thy 4675 son 5207.

22 But 1161 the father 3962 said 2036 to 4314 his 848 servants 1401, Bring forth 1627 the best 4413 robe 4749, and 2532 put it on 1746 him 846; and 2532 put 1325 a ring 1146 on 1519 his 846 hand 5495, and 2532 shoes 5266 on 1519 his feet 4228:

23 And 2532 bring hither 5342 the fatted 4618 calf 3448, and kill 2380 it; and 2532 let us eat 5315, and be merry 2165:

24 For 3754 this 3778 my 3450 son 5207 was 2258 dead 3498, and 2532 is alive again 326; 2532 he was 2258 lost 622, and 2532 is found 2147. And 2532 they began 756 to be merry 2165.

25 Now 1161 his 846 elder 4245 son 5207 was 2258 in 1722 the field 68: and 2532 as 5613 he came 2064 and drew nigh 1448 to the house 3614, he heard 191 musick 4858 and 2532 dancing 5525.

26 And 2532 he called 4341 one 1520 of the servants 3816, and asked 4441 what 5101 these things 5023 meant 1498.

27 And 1161 he said 2036 unto him 846, 3754 Thy 4675 brother 80 is come 2240; and 2532 thy 4675 father 3962 hath killed 2380 the fatted 4618 calf 3448, because 3754 he hath received 618 him 846 safe and sound 5198.

28 And 1161 he was angry 3710, and 2532 would 2309 not 3756 go in 1525: therefore 3767 came 1831 0 his 846 father 3962 out 1831, and intreated 3870 him 846.

29 And 1161 he answering 611 said 2036 to his father 3962, Lo 2400, these many 5118 years 2094 do I serve 1398 thee 4671, neither 3763 0 transgressed I 3928 at any time 3763 thy 4675 commandment 1785: and 2532 yet 2532 thou 1325 0 never 3763 gavest 1325 me 1698 a kid 2056, that 2443 I might make merry 2165 with 3326 my 3450 friends 5384:

30 But 1161 as soon as 3753 this 3778 thy 4675 son 5207 was come 2064, which 3588 hath devoured 2719 thy 4675 living 979 with 3326 harlots 4204, thou hast killed 2380 for him 846 the fatted 4618 calf 3448.

31 And 1161 he said 2036 unto him 846, Son 5043, thou 4771 art 1488 ever 3842 with 3326 me 1700, and 2532 all 3956 that I have 1699 is 2076 thine 4674.

32 It was 1161 meet 1163 that we should make merry 2165, and 2532 be glad 5463: for 3754 this 3778 thy 4675 brother 80 was 2258 dead 3498, and 2532 is alive again 326; and 2532 was 2258 lost 622, and 2532 is found 2147.
