All hail the power of Jesus' name,
let angels prostrate fall.
| Luke 14:35 | Neither for soil or for the dung-heap is it of any use; they throw it away. The (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) one who has ears to hear, let him hear.” |
| Luke 15:1 | Now all the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) tax collectors and the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) sinners used to come near to listen to him. |
| Luke 15:2 | And the (hoi | οἵ | nom pl masc) Pharisees and the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) scribes were grumbling, saying, “This fellow welcomes sinners and eats with them!” |
| Luke 15:3 | So he told them this parable. |
| Luke 15:4 | “Which man among you, who has a hundred sheep, should he lose one of them, would not leave the (ta | τά | acc pl neut) ninety-nine in the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) open pasture and go after the (to | τό | acc sg neut) one that is lost until he finds it? |
| Luke 15:5 | And when he finds it, would he not place it on his shoulders, rejoicing? |
| Luke 15:6 | And when he returns to his (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) house, would he not call together his (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) friends and his (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) neighbors, and say to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that (to | τό | acc sg neut) was lost’? |
| Luke 15:7 | I tell you, in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need of repentance. |
| Luke 15:8 | “Or what woman, who has ten silver coins, should she lose one coin, would not light a lamp, sweep the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) house, and search diligently until she finds it? |
| Luke 15:9 | And when she finds it, would she not call together her (tas | τάς | acc pl fem) friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) coin that I had lost’? |
| Luke 15:10 | Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) angels of (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) God over one sinner who repents.” |
| Luke 15:12 | The (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) younger of them said to the (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) father, ‘Father, give me the (to | τό | acc sg neut) share of (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) property that will belong to me.’ So he (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) divided the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) estate between them. |
| Luke 15:13 | Not many days later, the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) younger son gathered up everything and left for a journey to a distant country, and there he squandered his property by living recklessly. |
| Luke 15:14 | When he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in need. |
| Luke 15:15 | So he went and hired himself out to one of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) citizens of (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed pigs. |
| Luke 15:16 | He longed to be fed with the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl neut) pods that the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) pigs were eating, but no one would give him anything. |
| Luke 15:17 | “Coming to himself, he said, ‘How many of (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) my father’s hired servants have more than enough bread, but here I am, dying from hunger! |
| Luke 15:18 | I will leave this place and go to my father, and I will say to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; |
| Luke 15:19 | I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Take me on as one of (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) your hired servants.’ |
| Luke 15:20 | So he left that place and went to his father. While he was still a long way from home, his father saw him and was filled with compassion; he ran and fell upon his neck and kissed him. |
| Luke 15:21 | And the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ |
| Luke 15:22 | But the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) father said to his servants, ‘Quickly bring out a robe — the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) best one — and put it on him, and give him a ring for his finger, and sandals for his (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) feet. |
| Luke 15:23 | Bring the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) fattened calf and make the kill! Let us eat and celebrate; |
| Luke 15:24 | for this, my son, was dead, and has come back to life again; he was lost, and has been found.’ So they began to celebrate. |
| Luke 15:25 | “Meanwhile his older son was in the field, and as he came and drew near to the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) house, he heard music and dancing. |
