Luke 15:22-32

22But the fatherG3962 saidG3004 to his bondmen, BringG1627 out the best robeG4749 and clothe him in [it], and put a ring on his handG5495 and sandalsG5266 on his feetG4228; 23and bringG5342 the fatted calfG3448 and killG2380 it, and let us eatG2068 and make merryG2165: 24for this my sonG5207 wasG1510 deadG3498 and has come to life, wasG1510 lostG622 and has beenG1510 foundG2147. And they beganG757 to make merryG2165. 25And his elderG4245 sonG5207 wasG1510 in the fieldG68; and as, comingG2064 [up], he drew nigh to the houseG3614, he heardG191 music and dancing. 26And having calledG4341 oneG1520 of the servantsG3816, he inquiredG4441 what these thingsG3778 might beG1510. 27And he saidG3004 to him, Thy brotherG80 is comeG2240, and thy fatherG3962 has killedG2380 the fatted calfG3448 because he has receivedG618 him safe and well. 28But he became angryG3710 and would not goG1831 in. And his fatherG3962 wentG1831 out and besought him. 29But he answeringG611 saidG3004 to his fatherG3962, BeholdG2400, soG2443 manyG5118 yearsG2094 I serveG1398 thee, and neverG3763 have I transgressed a commandmentG1785 of thine; and to me hast thou neverG3763 givenG1325 a kid that I might make merryG2165 with my friendsG5384: 30but whenG3753 this thy sonG5207, who has devouredG2719 thy substance with harlots, is comeG2064, thou hast killedG2380 for him the fatted calfG3448. 31But he saidG3004 to him, ChildG5043, thou art ever with me, and all that isG1510 mine isG1510 thine. 32But it wasG1510 right to make merryG2165 and rejoiceG5463, because this thy brotherG80 wasG1510 deadG3498 and has come to life again, and wasG1510 lostG622 and has beenG1510 foundG2147.
