rsv Luke:15:4-7 SEEK

* "
What man of you ,
having a hundred sheep ,
if he has lost one of them ,
does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness ,
and go after the one which is lost ,
until he finds it ?
*
And when he has found it ,
he lays it on his shoulders ,
rejoicing .
*
And 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 .'
*
Just so ,
I tell you ,
there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance .
