8Or what woman, having ten bits of silver, if one bit has gone from her hands, will not get a light, and go through her house, searching with care till she sees it?
9And when she has it again, she gets her friends and neighbours together, saying, Be glad with me, for I have got back the bit of silver which had gone from me.
10Even so, I say to you, There is joy among the angels of God, when one sinner is turned away from his wrongdoing.
12And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me that part of your property which will be mine. And he made division of his goods between them.
13And not long after, the younger son got together everything which was his and took a journey into a far-away country, and there all his money went in foolish living.
14And when everything was gone, there was no food to be had in that country, and he was in need.
