Luke 15:11-13
The Parable of the Compassionate Father
15:11 Then Jesus said, “A man had two sons.
15:12 The younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the share of the estate that will belong to me.’ So he divided his assets between them.
15:13 After a few days, the younger son gathered together all he had and left on a journey to a distant country, and there he squandered his wealth with a wild lifestyle.
Luke 15:28-30
15:28 But the older son
became angry
and refused
to go in. His father came out and appealed to him,
15:29 but he answered
his father, ‘Look! These many years I have worked like a slave
for you, and I never disobeyed your commands. Yet
you never gave me even a goat
so that I could celebrate with my friends!
15:30 But when this son of yours
came back, who has devoured
your assets with prostitutes,
you killed the fattened calf
for him!’
