11 And He said, "A certain man had two sons, 12 and the younger of them said to the father, Father, give me the portion of the substance falling to [me], and he divided to them the living. 13 And not many days after, having gathered all together, the younger son went abroad to a far country, and there he scattered his substance, living riotously; 14 and he having spent all, there came a mighty famine on that country, and himself began to be in want; 15 and having gone on, he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into the fields to feed pigs, 16 and he was desirous to fill his belly from the husks that the pigs were eating, and no one was giving to him. 17 And having come to himself, he said, How many hired workers of my father have a superabundance of bread, and I am perishing here with hunger! 18 Having risen, I will go on to my father, and will say to him, Father, I sinned—to Heaven, and before you, 19 and I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired workers. 20 And having risen, he went to his own father, and he being yet far distant, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and having ran he fell on his neck and kissed him; 21 and the son said to him, Father, I sinned—to Heaven, and before you, and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. 22 And the father said to his servants, Bring forth the foremost robe, and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and sandals for the feet; 23 and having brought the fatted calf, kill [it], and having eaten, we may be merry, 24 because this son of mine was dead, and lived again, and he was lost, and was found; and they began to be merry.
