1: Were_G1510 now_G1161 to Him_G0846 drawing near_G1448 all_G3956 the_G3588 tax collectors_G5057 and_G2532 the_G3588 sinners_G0268 to hear_G0191 Him._G0846

2: And_G2532 were grumbling_G1234 the_G3588 both_G5037 Pharisees_G5330 and_G2532 the_G3588 scribes,_G1122 saying_G3004 -,_G3754 This [man]_G3778 sinners_G0268 receives_G4327 and_G2532 eats with_G4906 them._G0846

3: He spoke_G2036 then_G1161 to_G4314 them_G0846 the_G3588 parable_G3850 this,_G3778 saying,_G3004

4: What_G5101 man_G0444 of_G1537 you,_G4771 having_G2192 a hundred_G1540 sheep,_G4263 and_G2532 having lost_G0622 of_G1537 them_G0846 one,_G1520 not_G3756 leaves_G2641 the_G3588 ninety_G1768 nine_G1767 in_G1722 the_G3588 open field,_G2048 and_G2532 goes_G4198 after_G1909 the [one]_G3588 having been lost,_G0622 until_G2193 he finds_G2147 it?_G0846

5: And_G2532 having found [it],_G2147 he lays [it]_G2007 on_G1909 the_G3588 shoulders_G5606 of him,_G0846 rejoicing._G5463

6: And_G2532 having come_G2064 to_G1519 the_G3588 house,_G3624 he calls together_G4779 the_G3588 friends_G5384 and_G2532 the_G3588 neighbors,_G1069 saying_G3004 to them,_G0846 Rejoice with_G4796 me,_G1473 for_G3754 I have found_G2147 the_G3588 sheep_G4263 of me,_G1473 the [one]_G3588 having been lost!_G0622

7: I say_G3004 to you_G4771 that_G3754 in the same way_G3779 joy_G5479 in_G1722 -_G3588 heaven_G3772 there will be_G1510 over_G1909 one_G1520 sinner_G0268 repenting,_G3340 rather than_G2228 over_G1909 ninety_G1768 nine_G1767 righteous ones,_G1342 who_G3748 no_G3756 need_G5532 have_G2192 of repentance._G3341

8: Or_G2228 what_G5101 woman,_G1135 drachmas_G1406 having_G2192 ten,_G1176 if_G1437 she should lose_G0622 drachma_G1406 one,_G1520 not_G3780 lights_G0681 a lamp_G3088 and_G2532 sweeps_G4563 the_G3588 house,_G3614 and_G2532 seeks_G2212 carefully_G1960 until_G2193 it_G3739 she finds?_G2147

9: And_G2532 having found [it],_G2147 she calls together_G4779 the_G3588 friends_G5384 and_G2532 neighbors,_G1069 saying,_G3004 Rejoice with_G4796 me,_G1473 for_G3754 I have found_G2147 the_G3588 drachma_G1406 that_G3739 I lost._G0622

10: Thus_G3779 I say_G3004 to you,_G4771 there is_G1096 joy_G5479 before_G1799 the_G3588 angels_G0032 -_G3588 of God_G2316 over_G1909 one_G1520 sinner_G0268 repenting._G3340

11: He said_G2036 then,_G1161 A man_G0444 certain_G5100 had_G2192 two_G1417 sons._G5207

12: And_G2532 said_G2036 the_G3588 younger_G3501 of them_G0846 to_G3588 [the] father,_G3962 Father,_G3962 give_G1325 to me_G1473 the_G3588 falling [to me]_G1911 portion_G3313 of the_G3588 property._G3776 -_G3588 And_G1161 he divided_G1244 between them_G0846 the_G3588 property._G0979

13: And_G2532 after_G3326 not_G3756 many_G4183 days,_G2250 having gathered together_G4863 all,_G3956 the_G3588 younger_G3501 son_G5207 went away_G0589 into_G1519 a country_G5561 distant,_G3117 and_G2532 there_G1563 he wasted_G1287 the_G3588 estate_G3776 of him,_G0846 living_G2198 prodigally._G0811

14: Having spent_G1159 however_G1161 of him_G0846 all,_G3956 there arose_G1096 a famine_G3042 severe_G2478 throughout_G2596 the_G3588 country_G5561 that,_G1565 and_G2532 he_G0846 began_G0756 to be in need._G5302

15: And_G2532 having gone,_G4198 he joined himself_G2853 to one_G1520 of the_G3588 citizens_G4177 the_G3588 country_G5561 of that,_G1565 and_G2532 he sent_G3992 him_G0846 into_G1519 the_G3588 fields_G0068 of him_G0846 to feed_G1006 pigs._G5519

16: And_G2532 he was longing_G1937 to fill_G1072 the_G3588 belly_G2836 of him_G0846 from_G1537 the_G3588 pods_G2769 that_G3739 were eating_G2068 the_G3588 pigs;_G5519 and_G2532 no one_G3762 was giving_G1325 to him._G0846

17: To_G1519 himself_G1438 however_G1161 having come,_G2064 he was saying,_G5346 How many_G4214 hired servants_G3407 of the_G3588 father_G3962 of me_G1473 have abundance_G4052 of bread,_G0740 I_G1473 however_G1161 with hunger_G3042 here_G5602 am perishing?_G0622

18: Having risen up,_G0450 I will go_G4198 to_G4314 the_G3588 father_G3962 of me,_G1473 and_G2532 I will say_G2046 to him,_G0846 Father,_G3962 I have sinned_G0264 against_G1519 -_G3588 heaven_G3772 and_G2532 before_G1799 you;_G4771

19: no longer_G3765 am I_G1510 worthy_G0514 to be called_G2564 son_G5207 of you._G4771 Make_G4160 me_G1473 like_G5613 one_G1520 of the_G3588 servants_G3407 of you._G4771

20: And_G2532 having risen up,_G0450 he went_G2064 to_G4314 the_G3588 father_G3962 of himself._G1438 Still_G2089 now_G1161 he_G0846 far_G3112 being distant,_G0568 saw_G3708 him_G0846 the_G3588 father_G3962 of him,_G0846 and_G2532 was moved with compassion,_G4697 and_G2532 having run,_G5143 fell_G1968 upon_G1909 the_G3588 neck_G5137 of him_G0846 and_G2532 kissed_G2705 him._G0846

21: Said_G2036 then_G1161 the_G3588 son_G5207 to him,_G0846 Father,_G3962 I have sinned_G0264 against_G1519 -_G3588 heaven_G3772 and_G2532 before_G1799 you;_G4771 no longer_G3765 am I_G1510 worthy_G0514 to be called_G2564 son_G5207 of you._G4771 make_G4160 me_G1473 as_G5613 one_G1520 of the_G3588 hired servants_G3407 of you_G4771

22: Said_G2036 then_G1161 the_G3588 father_G3962 to_G4314 the_G3588 servants_G1401 of him,_G0846 Quickly_G5035 bring out_G1627 robe_G4749 the_G3588 best_G4413 and_G2532 clothe_G1746 him,_G0846 and_G2532 give_G1325 a ring_G1146 for_G1519 the_G3588 hand_G5495 of him,_G0846 and_G2532 sandals_G5266 for_G1519 his_G3588 feet;_G4228

23: and_G2532 having brought_G5342 the_G3588 calf_G3448 -_G3588 fattened,_G4618 kill [it],_G2380 and_G2532 having eaten,_G5315 let us be merry._G2165

24: For_G3754 this_G3778 -_G3588 son_G5207 of mine_G1473 dead_G3498 was,_G1510 and_G2532 is alive again;_G0326 he was_G1510 lost,_G0622 and_G2532 is found._G2147 And_G2532 they began_G0756 to be merry._G2165

25: Was_G1510 now_G1161 the_G3588 son_G5207 of him,_G0846 the_G3588 elder,_G4245 in_G1722 [the] field;_G0068 and_G2532 while_G5613 coming [up],_G2064 he drew near_G1448 to the_G3588 house,_G3614 he heard_G0191 music_G4858 and_G2532 dancing._G5525

26: And_G2532 having called near_G4341 one_G1520 of the_G3588 servants,_G3816 he began inquiring_G4441 what_G5101 -_G0302 might be_G1510 these things._G3778

27: -_G3588 And_G1161 he said_G2036 to him_G0846 -,_G3754 The_G3588 brother_G0080 of you_G4771 is come,_G2240 and_G2532 has killed_G2380 the_G3588 father_G3962 of you_G4771 the_G3588 calf_G3448 -_G3588 fattened,_G4618 because_G3754 in good health_G5198 him_G0846 he has received._G0618

28: He was angry_G3710 however,_G1161 and_G2532 not_G3756 was willing_G2309 to go in._G1525 -_G3588 And_G1161 the father_G3962 of him,_G0846 having gone,_G1831 was begging_G3870 him._G0846

29: -_G3588 And_G1161 answering,_G0611 he said_G2036 to_G3588 [the] father_G3962 of him,_G0846 Behold,_G2400 so many_G5118 years_G2094 I serve_G1398 you,_G4771 and_G2532 never_G3763 a commandment_G1785 of you_G4771 I disobeyed,_G3928 and_G2532 to me_G1473 never_G3763 did you give_G1325 a young goat,_G2056 that_G2443 with_G3326 the_G3588 friends_G5384 of me_G1473 I might make merry._G2165

30: When_G3753 however_G1161 the_G3588 son_G5207 of you_G4771 this,_G3778 the [one]_G3588 having devoured_G2719 your_G4771 -_G3588 living_G0979 with_G3326 prostitutes,_G4204 came,_G2064 you have killed_G2380 for him_G0846 the_G3588 fattened_G4618 calf!_G3448

31: -_G3588 And_G1161 he said_G2036 to him,_G0846 Son,_G5043 you_G4771 always_G3842 with_G3326 me_G1473 are,_G1510 and_G2532 all_G3956 that_G3588 [is] mine,_G1699 yours_G4674 is._G1510

32: To make merry_G2165 however_G1161 and_G2532 to rejoice_G5463 it was fitting,_G1163 because_G3754 the_G3588 brother_G0080 of you_G4771 this,_G3778 dead_G3498 was,_G1510 and_G2532 is alive again;_G2198 and_G2532 he was lost,_G0622 and_G2532 is found._G2147
