updv@Matthew:19:16 @ And he arose, and came to his father.
updv@Matthew:19:17 @ But while he was yet far off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
updv@Matthew:19:18 @ And 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.
updv@Matthew:19:19 @ But the father said to his slaves, Bring forth quickly the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and sandals on his feet:
updv@Matthew:19:20 @ and bring the fatted calf, [and] kill it, and let us eat, and make merry:
updv@Matthew:19:21 @ for this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
updv@Matthew:19:22 @ Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing.
updv@Matthew:19:23 @ And he called to him one of the [household] slaves, and inquired what these things might be.
updv@Matthew:19:24 @ And he said to him, Your brother has come; and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him safe and sound.
updv@Matthew:19:25 @ But he was angry, and would not go in: and his father came out, and entreated him.
updv@Matthew:19:26 @ But he answered and said to his father, Look, these many years I serve you as a slave, and I never transgressed a commandment of yours; and [yet] you never gave me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends:
updv@Matthew:19:27 @ but when this your son came, who has devoured your living with prostitutes, you killed for him the fatted calf.
updv@Matthew:19:28 @ And he said to him, Child, you are ever with me, and all that is mine is yours.
updv@Matthew:19:29 @ But it was meet to make merry and be glad: for this your brother was dead, and is alive [again]; and [was] lost, and is found.
