Luke 15:25-31

25“Now his older son was in the field, and when he came and approached the house, he heard music and dancing.

26And he summoned one of the servants and began inquiring what these things could be.

27And he said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has received him back safe and sound.’

28But he became angry and was not willing to go in; and his father came out and began pleading with him.

29But he answered and said to his father, ‘Look! For so many years I have been serving you and I have never 1neglected a command of yours; and yet you have never given me a young goat, so that I might celebrate with my friends;

30but when this son of yours came, who has devoured your 23wealth with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.’

31And he said to him, ‘Son, you 4have always been with me, and all that is mine is yours.
