9And when she hath found it, she calleth together her friends and neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the piece which I had lost.

10Even so, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.

11And he said, A certain man had two sons:

12and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of [thy] substance that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.

13And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together and took his journey into a far country; and there he wasted his substance with riotous living.

14And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that country; and he began to be in want.

15And he went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
