15:1Then drew neere vnto him all the Publicanes and sinners, for to heare him.
15:2And the Pharises and Scribes murmured, murmured, saying, This man receiueth sinners, and eateth with them.
15:3And he spake this parable vnto them, saying,
15:4What man of you hauing an hundred sheepe, if he loose one of them, doth not leaue the ninety and nine in the wildernesse, and goe after that which is lost, vntill he find it?
15:5And when he hath found it, hee layeth it on his shoulders, reioycing.
15:6And when he commeth home, he calleth together his friends, and neighbours, saying vnto them, Reioyce with me, for I haue found my sheepe which was lost.
15:7I say vnto you, that likewise ioy shall be in heauen ouer one sinner that repenteth, more then ouer ninety and nine iust persons, which need no repentance.
15:8Either what woman hauing ten pieces of siluer, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweepe the house, and seeke diligently till shee find it?
15:9And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours together, saying, Reioyce with me, for I haue found ye piece which I had lost.
15:10Likewise I say vnto you, there is ioy in the presence of the Angels of God, ouer one sinner that repenteth.
15:11And hee said, A certaine man had two sonnes:
15:12And the yonger of them said to his father, Father, giue me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he diuided vnto them his liuing.
15:13And not many dayes after, the yonger sonne gathered al together, and tooke his iourney into a farre countrey, and there wasted his substance with riotous liuing.
15:14And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land, and he beganne to be in want.
15:15And he went and ioyned himselfe to a citizen of that countrey, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
15:16And he would faine haue filled his belly with the huskes that the swine did eate: & no man gaue vnto him.
15:17And when he came to himselfe, he said, How many hired seruants of my fathers haue bread inough and to spare, and I perish with hunger?
15:18I will arise and goe to my father, and will say vnto him, Father, I haue sinned against heauen and before thee.
15:19And am no more worthy to be called thy sonne: make me as one of thy hired seruants.
15:20And he arose and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ranne, and fell on his necke, and kissed him.
15:21And the sonne said vnto him, Father, I haue sinned against heauen, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy sonne.
15:22But the father saide to his seruants, Bring foorth the best robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shooes on his feete.
15:23And bring hither the fatted calfe, and kill it, and let vs eate and be merrie.
15:24For this my sonne was dead, and is aliue againe; hee was lost, & is found. And they began to be merie.
15:25Now his elder sonne was in the field, and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musicke & dauncing,
15:26And he called one of the seruants, and asked what these things meant.
15:27And he said vnto him, Thy brother is come, and thy father hath killed the fatted calfe, because he hath receiued him safe and sound.
15:28And he was angry, and would not goe in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.
15:29And he answering said to his father, Loe, these many yeeres doe I serue thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandement, and yet thou neuer gauest mee a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
15:30But as soone as this thy sonne was come, which hath deuoured thy liuing with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calfe.
15:31And he said vnto him, Sonne, thou art euer with me, and all that I haue is thine.
15:32It was meete that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is aliue againe: and was lost, and is found.

 

15:1Then resorted vnto hym all the publicanes and sinners, for to heare hym.
15:2And the pharisees & scribes murmured, saying: he receaueth sinners, and eateth with them.
15:3But he put foorth this parable vnto them, saying:
15:4What man of you, hauyng an hundred sheepe, if he loose one of them, doth not leaue ninetie and nine in the wildernesse, and go after that which is lost, vntyll he fynde it?
15:5And when he hath founde it, he layeth it on his shoulders with ioy:
15:6And assoone as he commeth home, he calleth together his louers and neyghbours, saying vnto them: Reioyce with me, for I haue founde my sheepe which was lost.
15:7I say vnto you, that lykewyse ioy shalbe in heauen ouer one sinner that repenteth, more then ouer ninetie and nine iust persons, which neede no repentaunce.
15:8Either what woman, hauyng tenne peeces of siluer, yf she loose one, doth not lyght a candle, and swepe the house, and seke diligently tyll she fynde it?
15:9And when she hath founde it, she calleth her louers & her neyghbours together, saying: Reioyce with me, for I haue founde the peece which I had lost.
15:10Lykewyse I say vnto you, shall there be ioy in the presence of the Angels of God, ouer one sinner that repenteth.
15:11And he sayde. A certayne man had two sonnes:
15:12And the younger of them sayde to his father: father, geue me the portion of the goodes, that to me belongeth. And he deuided vnto them his substaunce.
15:13And not long after, when the younger sonne had gathered all that he had together, he toke his iourney into a farre countrey, and there wasted his goodes with riotous lyuyng.
15:14And when he had spent all, there arose a great dearth in all that lande, and he began to lacke.
15:15And he ioyned hym selfe to a citizen of that countrey: and he sent hym to his farme, to feede swyne.
15:16And he woulde fayne haue fylled his belly with the coddes that the swyne dyd eate: and no man gaue vnto hym.
15:17Then he came to hym selfe, and sayde: Howe many hyred seruauntes at my fathers house haue bread inough, and I perishe with hunger?
15:18I wyll aryse, and go to my father, and wyll say vnto hym: Father, I haue sinned agaynst heauen, and before thee,
15:19And am no more worthy to be called thy sonne, make me as one of thy hyred seruauntes.
15:20And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way of, his father sawe him, & had compassion, and ranne, and fell on his necke, and kissed hym.
15:21And the sonne sayde vnto him: Father, I haue sinned agaynst heauen, and in thy syght, and am no more worthy to be called thy sonne.
15:22But the father saide to his seruauntes: bryng foorth the best garment, and put it on hym, and put a ryng on his hande, and shoes on his feete:
15:23And bryng [hyther] that fat calfe, and kyll it, and let vs eate and be mery:
15:24For this my sonne was dead, and is aliue agayne, he was lost, and is founde. And they began to be mery.
15:25The elder brother was in the fielde: and when he came and drewe nye to the house, he hearde minstrelsie & daunsing,
15:26And called one of his seruauntes, and asked, what those thynges meant.
15:27And he sayde vnto hym: thy brother is come, and thy father hath kylled the fat calfe, because he hath receaued hym safe and sounde.
15:28And he was angry, and woulde not go in: Therfore came his father out, and entreated hym.
15:29He aunswered and sayde to his father: Lo, these many yeres haue I done thee seruice, neither brake I at any tyme thy commaundement, and yet thou neuer gauest me a kidde to make mery with my friendes:
15:30But assoone as this thy sonne was come, which hath deuoured thy goodes with harlottes, thou hast for his pleasure kylled that fat calfe.
15:31And he sayde vnto hym: Sonne, thou art euer with me, and all that I haue, is thyne,
15:32It was meete that we shoulde make mery and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alyue agayne: and was lost, and is founde.

 

15:1Then resorted vnto him all the Publicanes and sinners, to heare him.
15:2Therefore the Pharises and Scribes murmured, saying, Hee receiueth sinners, and eateth with them.
15:3Then spake hee this parable to them, saying,
15:4What man of you hauing an hundreth sheepe, if hee lose one of them, doeth not leaue ninetie and nine in the wildernesse, and goe after that which is lost, vntill he finde it?
15:5And when he hath found it, he laieth it on his shoulders with ioye.
15:6And when he commeth home, he calleth together his friendes and neighbours, saying vnto them, Reioyce with mee: for I haue founde my sheepe which was lost.
15:7I say vnto you, that likewise ioy shall be in heauen for one sinner that conuerteth, more then for ninetie and nine iust men, which neede none amendment of life.
15:8Either what woman hauing ten groates, if she lose one groate, doth not light a candle, and sweepe the house, and seeke diligently till shee finde it?
15:9And when shee hath found it, shee calleth her friendes, and neighbours, saying, Reioyce with me: for I haue found the groate which I had lost.
15:10Likewise I say vnto you, there is ioy in the presence of the Angels of God, for one sinner that conuerteth.
15:11He sayde moreouer, A certaine man had two sonnes.
15:12And the yonger of them sayde to his father, Father, giue mee the portion of the goods that falleth to mee. So he deuided vnto them his substance.
15:13So not many daies after, when the yonger sonne had gathered all together, hee tooke his iourney into a farre countrey, and there hee wasted his goods with riotous liuing.
15:14Nowe when hee had spent all, there arose a great dearth throughout that land, and he began to be in necessitie.
15:15Then hee went and claue to a citizen of that conntrey, and hee sent him to his farme, to feede swine.
15:16And hee would faine haue filled his bellie with the huskes, that the swine ate: but no man gaue them him.
15:17Then he came to him selfe, and said, Howe many hired seruaunts at my fathers haue bread ynough, and I die for hunger?
15:18I wil rise and goe to my father, and say vnto him, Father, I haue sinned against heaue, and before thee,
15:19And am no more worthy to be called thy sonne: make me as one of thy hired seruants.
15:20So hee arose and came to his father, and when hee was yet a great way off, his father sawe him, and had compassion, and ranne and fell on his necke, and kissed him.
15:21And the sonne sayde vnto him, Father, I haue sinned against heauen, and before thee, and am no more worthie to be called thy sonne.
15:22Then the father said to his seruaunts, Bring foorth the best robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feete,
15:23And bring the fat calfe, and kill him, and let vs eate, and be merie:
15:24For this my sonne was dead, and is aliue againe: and he was lost, but he is found. And they began to be merie.
15:25Nowe the elder brother was in the fielde, and when he came and drewe neere to the house, he heard melodie, and dauncing,
15:26And called one of his seruaunts, and asked what those things meant.
15:27And hee sayde vnto him, Thy brother is come, and thy father hath killed the fatte calfe, because he hath receiued him safe and sound.
15:28Then he was angry, and would not goe in: therefore came his father out and entreated him.
15:29But he answered and said to his father, Loe, these many yeeres haue I done thee seruice, neither brake I at any time thy commadement, and yet thou neuer gauest mee a kidde that I might make merie with my friends.
15:30But when this thy sonne was come, which hath deuoured thy good with harlots, thou hast for his sake killed the fat calfe.
15:31And he said vnto him, Sonne, thou art euer with me, and al that I haue, is thine. It was meete that we shoulde make merie, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is aliue againe: and hee was lost, but he is found.
