(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!
Luke
15
(18) I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
Luke
15
(19) And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
Luke
15
(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.
Luke
15
(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.
Luke
15
(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:
Luke
15
(23) And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:
Luke
15
(24) For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
Luke
15
(25) Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing.
Luke
15
(26) And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
Luke
15
(27) And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
Luke
15
(28) And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and entreated him.
Luke
15
(29) And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
Luke
15
(30) But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
Luke
15
(31) And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.
Luke
15
(32) It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
Luke
16
(1) AND HE said also unto his disciples There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.
Luke
16
(2) And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.
Luke
16
(3) Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.
Luke
16
(4) I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
