\subsection{Luke 15}
\subsubsection{The Parable of the Lost Sheep and Coin}
\VS{1} Now all the tax gatherers and sinners were drawing nigh to him to be hearing
him.
\VS{2} And the Pharisees and the scribes were complaining saying that:
This [one] welcomes sinners and eats with them.
\VS{3} But he said to them this
parable saying:
\VS{4} What man among you having [a] hundred sheep and having
lost of them one does not leave the ninety nine in the wilderness and
proceed to the lost until he find it?
\VS{5} And when he finds [it] he will
place [it] upon his shoulders rejoicing,
\VS{6} and having come to his house he
calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them: Rejoice with
me, for I found my sheep that [was] lost.
\VS{7} I say to you that there will be
likewise joy in heaven over one sinner repenting than over the ninety nine
just [ones] who have no need of repentance.
\VS{8} Or [a] certain woman having ten
drachmas, if she lose one drachma, does she not light [a] lamp and sweep the
house and seek diligently until it be found?
\VS{9} And having found [it] she
calls together her friends and neighbors saying: Rejoice with me, for I
found the drachma that was lost.
\VS{10} Likewise, I say to you, Joy comes
to pass before the angels of God over one sinner repenting.
\subsubsection{The Parable of the Prodigal Son}
\VS{11} But I
say to you, a certain man was having two sons.
\VS{12} And the younger of
them said to the father: Father, give to me the portion of the wealth
falling to me. So he divided to them the living.
\VS{13} And after not many
days having gathered everything the younger son journeyed to [a] far country,
and there he squandered his wealth zoe-living\fnZoe{} loosely.
\VS{14} So when he spent all [a] severe famine came to pass against that country,
and he began to be in need.
\VS{15} And having gone he joined to one of the citizens of that
country and he sent him into his fields to be grazing the pigs.
\VS{16} And
he was desiring to fill his belly with pods\footnote{Refers to the edible pods from a carob tree} that the pigs were eating, and
no one was giving [anything] to him.
\VS{17} But coming to himself he said: How many
servants of my father have abundance of bread, but I am perishing here in
[a] famine.
\VS{18} Having arisen I will go to my father and will say to him:
Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you,
\VS{19} no longer am I worthy to be called your son, make me as one [of your] hired-hands.
\VS{20} And having arisen he came to his own father. But while he was being distant afar
his father saw him and had compassion, and having run fell upon his neck and
kissed him.
\VS{21} But the son said to him: Father, I have sinned against
heaven and before you\footnote{insert ``make me as one [of your] hired-hands'' BD;
text: \papyrus{75}W\koine{} \vulgate{} most},
\VS{22} But the father said to his slaves: Swiftly bring out the best robe and put it on him,
and give [a] ring for his hand and sandals for his feet,
\VS{23} and be bringing the fatted calf, kill [it], and
having eaten let us make merry.
\VS{24} For this my son was dead and is alive again, was lost and is found.
And he began to be making merry.
\VS{25} Now his elder son was in the field, and as he came he drew nigh to
the house, he heard music and dance,
\VS{26} and calling upon one of the servants he inquired what this might be.
\VS{27} But he said to him that his brother has arrived, and your father killed the fatted calf, for he had received him back sound\footnote{or ``healthy''}.
\VS{28} But he was enraged and did not want to enter.
So his father having come out called upon him.
\VS{29} But answering he said to the father: Behold so many years I am slaving to
you and never transgressed your commandment, and for me you have never given
[a] goat that I may make merry with my friends.
\VS{30} But when this your son who consumed your living with prostitutes came,
you killed for him the fatted calf.
\VS{31} But he said to him: Child, you are always with me, and all mine is yours.
\VS{32} But it was necessary to make merry and rejoice, for this your brother was dead
and has returned to zoe-life\fnZoe{}, and was lost\fnApollumi{} and is found.
