| 1 | Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming close to him to hear him. | Lk 5:29-32 Lk 7:29 Lk 13:30 Ezk 18:27 Mt 9:10-13 Mt 21:28-31 Ro 5:20 1Ti 1:15 |
| 2 | The Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, "This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them." | Lk 15:29 Lk 15:30 Lk 5:30 Lk 7:34 Lk 7:39 Lk 19:7 Mt 9:11 Ac 11:3 1Co 5:9-11 Ga 2:12 |
| 3 | He told them this parable. |
| 4 | "Which of you men, if you had one hundred sheep, and lost one of them, wouldn`t leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one that was lost, until he found it? | Lk 13:15 Mt 12:11 Mt 18:12 Ro 2:1 |
| 5 | When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing. | Lk 19:9 Lk 23:43 Isa 62:12 Jn 4:34 Jn 4:35 Ac 9:1-16 Ro 10:20 Ro 10:21 Eph 2:3-6 Tit 3:3-7 |
| 6 | When he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, `Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!` | Lk 15:7 Lk 15:10 Lk 15:24 Lk 2:13 Lk 2:14 Isa 66:10 Isa 66:11 Jn 3:29 Jn 15:14 Ac 11:23 Ac 15:3 Php 1:4 Php 2:17 Php 4:1 1Th 2:19 1Th 3:7-9 |
| 7 | I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance. | Lk 15:32 Lk 5:32 Mt 18:13 |
| 8 | Or what woman, if she had ten drachma coins, if she lost one drachma, wouldn`t light a lamp, sweep the house, and seek diligently until she found it? | Lk 19:10 Ezk 34:12 Jn 10:16 Jn 11:52 Eph 2:17 |
| 9 | When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, `Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost.` | Lk 15:6 Lk 15:7 |
| 10 | Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting." | Lk 2:1-14 Ezk 18:23 Ezk 18:32 Ezk 33:11 Mt 18:10 Mt 18:11 Mt 28:5-7 Ac 5:19 Ac 10:3-5 Heb 1:14 Rev 5:11-14 |
| 11 | He said, "A certain man had two sons. | Mt 21:23-31 |
| 12 | The younger of them said to his father, `Father, give me my share of your property.` He divided his living to them. | Dt 21:16 Dt 21:17 Ps 16:5 Ps 16:6 Ps 17:14 |
| 13 | Not many days after, the younger son gathered all of this together and took his journey into a far country. There he wasted his property with riotous living. | 2Ch 33:1-10 Jb 21:13-15 Jb 22:17 Jb 22:18 Ps 10:4-6 Ps 73:27 Pr 27:8 Isa 1:4 Isa 30:11 Jer 2:5 Jer 2:13 Jer 2:17-19 Jer 2:31-19 Mic 6:3 Eph 2:13 Eph 2:17 |
| 14 | When he had spent all of it, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in need. | 2Ch 33:11 Ezk 16:27 Hos 2:9-14 Am 8:9-12 |
| 15 | He went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed pigs. | Lk 15:13 Ex 10:3 2Ch 28:22 Isa 1:5 Isa 1:9 Isa 1:10-13 Isa 57:17 Jer 5:3 Jer 8:4-6 Jer 31:18 Jer 31:19 2Ti 2:25 2Ti 2:26 Rev 2:21 Rev 2:22 |
| 16 | He wanted to fill his belly with the husks that the pigs ate, but no one gave him any. | Isa 44:20 Isa 55:2 Lam 4:5 Hos 12:1 Ro 6:19-21 |
| 17 | But when he came to himself he said, `How many hired servants of my father`s have bread enough to spare, and I`m dying with hunger! | Lk 8:35 Lk 16:23 Ps 73:20 Ec 9:3 Jer 31:19 Ezk 18:28 Ac 2:37 Ac 16:29 Ac 16:30 Ac 26:11-19 Eph 2:4 Eph 2:5 Eph 5:14 Tit 3:4-6 Jm 1:16-18 |
| 18 | I will get up and go to my father, and will tell him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight. | 1Ki 20:30 1Ki 20:31 2Ki 7:3 2Ki 7:4 2Ch 33:12 2Ch 33:13 2Ch 33:19 Ps 32:5 Ps 116:3-7 Jer 31:6-9 Jer 50:4 Jer 50:5 Lam 3:18-22 Lam 3:29-22 Lam 3:40-22 Hos 2:6 Hos 2:7 Hos 14:1-3 Jon 2:4 Jon 3:9 |
| 19 | I am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired servants."` | Lk 5:8 Lk 7:6 Lk 7:7 Gn 32:10 Jb 42:6 1Co 15:9 1Ti 1:13-16 |
| 20 | He arose, and came to his father. But while he was still far off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. | Dt 30:2-4 Jb 33:27 Jb 33:28 Ps 86:5 Ps 86:15 Ps 103:10-13 Isa 49:15 Isa 55:6-9 Isa 57:18 Jer 31:20 Ezk 16:6-8 Hos 11:8 Mic 7:18 Mic 7:19 Ac 2:39 Eph 2:13 Eph 2:17 |
| 21 | The son said to him, `Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight. I am no more worthy to be called your son.` | Lk 15:18 Lk 15:19 Jer 3:13 Ezk 16:63 Ro 2:4 |
| 22 | But the father said to his servants, `Bring out the best robe, and put it on him. Put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet. | Ps 45:13 Ps 132:9 Ps 132:16 Isa 61:10 Ezk 16:9-13 Zc 3:3-5 Mt 22:11 Mt 22:12 Ro 3:22 Ro 13:14 Ga 3:27 Eph 4:22-24 Rev 3:4 Rev 3:5 Rev 3:18 Rev 6:11 Rev 7:9 Rev 7:13 Rev 7:14 Rev 19:8 |
| 23 | Bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let us eat, and celebrate; | Gn 18:7 Ps 63:5 Pr 9:2 Isa 25:6 Isa 65:13 Isa 65:14 Mt 22:2-14 |
| 24 | for this, my son, was dead, and is alive again. He was lost, and is found.` They began to be merry. | Lk 15:32 Mk 8:22 Jn 5:21 Jn 5:24 Jn 5:25 Jn 11:25 Ro 6:11 Ro 6:13 Ro 8:2 2Co 5:14 2Co 5:15 Eph 2:1 Eph 2:5 Eph 5:14 Col 2:13 1Ti 5:6 Jud 1:12 Rev 3:1 |
| 25 | Now his elder son was in the field. As he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. | Lk 15:11 Lk 15:12 |
| 26 | He called one of the servants to him, and asked what was going on. |
| 27 | He said to him, `Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has received him safe and sound.` | Lk 15:30 Ac 9:17 Ac 22:13 Phm 1:16 |
| 28 | But he was angry, and would not go in. Therefore his father came out, and begged him. | Lk 15:2 Lk 5:30 Lk 7:39 1Sa 17:28 1Sa 18:8 Isa 65:5 Isa 66:5 Jon 4:1-3 Mt 20:11 Ac 13:45 Ac 13:50 Ac 14:2 Ac 14:19 Ac 22:21 Ac 22:22 Ro 10:19 1Th 2:16 |
| 29 | But he answered his father, `Behold, these many years I served you, and I never disobeyed a commandment of yours, and you never gave me a goat, that I might celebrate with my friends. | Lk 17:10 Lk 18:9 Lk 18:11 Lk 18:12 Lk 18:20 Lk 18:21 1Sa 15:13 1Sa 15:14 Isa 58:2 Isa 58:3 Isa 65:5 Zc 7:3 Mt 20:12 Ro 3:20 Ro 3:27 Ro 7:9 Ro 10:3 Php 3:4-6 1Jn 1:8-10 Rev 3:17 |
| 30 | But when this, your son, came, who has devoured your living with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.` | Lk 15:32 Lk 18:11 Ex 32:7 Ex 32:11 |
| 31 | He said to him, `Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours. | Lk 19:22 Lk 19:23 Mt 20:13-16 Mk 7:27 Mk 7:28 Ro 9:4 Ro 11:1 Ro 11:35 |
| 32 | But it was appropriate to celebrate and be glad, for this, your brother, was dead, and is alive again. He was lost, and is found.`" | Lk 7:34 Ps 51:8 Isa 35:10 Hos 14:9 Jon 4:10 Jon 4:11 Ro 3:4 Ro 3:19 Ro 15:9-13 |
