Luke 15-11-24--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. 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 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 would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat- and no man gave unto him.-17 And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I 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 And 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 when 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 in thy sight, 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. And they began to be merry.
