Luke 15:11-19

11And he saidG3004, A certainG5100 manG444 had twoG1417 sonsG5207: 12and the younger of them saidG3004 to his fatherG3962, FatherG3962, giveG1325 me the portionG3313 ofthy substance that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. 13And not manyG4183 daysG2250 after, the younger sonG5207 gatheredG4863 all togetherG4863 and took his journey into a far countryG5561; and there he wasted his substance with riotous livingG2198. 14And when he had spentG1159 all, there aroseG1096 a mightyG2478 famineG3042 in that countryG5561; and he beganG757 to be in want. 15And he wentG4198 and joinedG2853 himself to oneG1520 of the citizensG4177 of that countryG5561; and he sentG3992 him into his fieldsG68 to feedG1006 swine. 16And he would fain have filledG1072 his bellyG2836 with the husks that the swine did eatG2068: and no man gaveG1325 unto him. 17But when he cameG2064 to himself he saidG5346, HowG4214 manyG4214 hired servants of my father’sG3962 have breadG740 enough and to spare, and I perishG622 hereG5602 with hungerG3042! 18I will ariseG450 and goG4198 to my fatherG3962, and will sayG3004 unto him, FatherG3962, I have sinnedG264 against heavenG3772, and in thy sight: 19I amG1510 no more worthyG514 to beG1510 calledG2564 thy sonG5207: makeG4160 me as oneG1520 of thy hired servants.
