Luke 15:3-10

3SoG1161 He toldG3004 them thisG3778 parableG3850, sayingG3004, 4“1WhatG5101 manG444 amongG1537 you, if he hasG2192 a hundredG1540 sheepG4263 and has lostG622 oneG1520 of them, does not leaveG2641 the ninety-nineG1752G1767 in the 2openG2048 pastureG2048 and goG4198 afterG1909 the one which is lostG622 untilG2193 he findsG2147 it? 5When he has foundG2147 it, he laysG2007 it on his shouldersG5606, rejoicingG5463. 6And when he comesG2064 homeG3624, he callsG4779 togetherG4779 his friendsG5384 and his neighborsG1069, sayingG3004 to them, ‘RejoiceG4796 with me, for I have foundG2147 my sheepG4263 which was lostG622!’ 7I tellG3004 you that in the sameG3779 wayG3779, there will be more joyG5479 in heavenG3772 overG1909 oneG1520 sinnerG268 who repentsG3340 thanG2228 overG1909 ninety-nineG1752G1767 righteousG1342 personsG1342 whoG3748 needG5532 noG3756 repentanceG3341.

8“OrG2228 whatG5101 womanG1135, ifG1437 she hasG2192 tenG1176 3silverG1406 coinsG1406 and losesG622 oneG1520 coinG1406, does not lightG681 a lampG3088 and sweepG4563 the houseG3614 and searchG2212 carefullyG1960 untilG2193 she findsG2147 it? 9When she has foundG2147 it, she callsG4779 togetherG4779 her friendsG5384 and neighborsG1069, sayingG3004, ‘RejoiceG4796 with me, for I have foundG2147 the coinG1406 whichG3739 I had lostG622!’ 10In the sameG3779 wayG3779, I tellG3004 you, there is joyG5479 4in the presenceG1799 of the angelsG32 of GodG2316 overG1909 oneG1520 sinnerG268 who repentsG3340.”
