42:015:004 What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of
           them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness,
           and go after that which is lost, until he find it?

42:015:005 And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders,
           rejoicing.

42:015:006 And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and
           neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have
           found my sheep which was lost.

42:015:007 I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one
           sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just
           persons, which need no repentance.

42:015:008 Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one
           piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek
           diligently till she find it?

42:015:009 And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her
           neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found
           the piece which I had lost.

42:015:010 Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the
           angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.

42:015:011 And he said, A certain man had two sons: 

42:015:012 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.

42:015:013 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.

42:015:014 And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that
           land; and he began to be in want.

42:015:015 And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country;
           and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.

42:015:016 And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that
           the swine did eat:  and no man gave unto him.

42:015:017 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!

42:015:018 I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him,
           Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,

42:015:019 And am no more worthy to be called thy son:  make me as one of
           thy hired servants.

42:015:020 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.

42:015:021 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.
