The Parable of the Lost Sheep
1Now zthe tax collectors and sinners were all drawing near to hear him. 2And the Pharisees and the scribes agrumbled, saying, b“This man receives sinners and ceats with them.”
3So he told them this parable: 4d“What man of you, having a hundred sheep, eif he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine fin the open country, and ggo after the one that is lost, until he finds it? 5And when he has found it, hhe lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for iI have found my sheep that was lost.’ 7Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who jrepents than over ninety-nine krighteous persons who need no repentance.
