one sinner that repenteth.

11 And he said, A certain man had two sons: 12 and the younger of
them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of _thy_
substance that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.
13 And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together
and took his journey into a far country; and there he wasted his
substance with riotous living. 14 And when he had spent all, there
arose a mighty famine in that country; and he began to be in want.
15 And he went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that
country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. 16 And he
would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did
eat: and no man gave unto him. 17 But when he came to himself he
said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and

began to be merry. 25 Now his elder son was in the field: and as
he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing. 26
And he called to him one of the servants, and inquired what these
things might be. 27 And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and
thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received
him safe and sound. 28 But he was angry, and would not go in: and
his father came out, and entreated him. 29 But he answered and
said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, and I
