3 He told them this parable: 4 "Which of you men, if you had one hundred sheep and lost one of them, wouldn’t leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one that was lost, until he found it? 5 When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6 When he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’ 7 I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance.

3 耶稣就对他们讲了这个比喻， 说：

4 "你们中间谁有一百只羊， 失去一只， 不把九十九只留下在旷野， 去寻找那失落的， 直到找着呢？

5 既找着了， 就欢欢喜喜地放在肩上，

6 回到家里， 请朋友邻舍来， 对他们说： ‘请大家和我一同欢乐， 因为我失去的羊已经找到了！ ’

7 我告诉你们， 因为一个罪人悔改， 天上也要这样为他欢乐， 比为九十九个不用悔改的义人欢乐更大。
