누가복음 15

1모든 세리와 죄인들이 말씀을 들으러 가까이 나아오니 2바리새인과 서기관들이 원망하여 가로되 이 사람이 죄인을 영접하고 음식을 같이 먹는다 하더라 3예수께서 저희에게 이 비유로 이르시되 4너희 중에 어느 사람이 양 일백 마리가 있는데 그 중에 하나를 잃으면 아흔아홉 마리를 들에 두고 그 잃은 것을 찾도록 찾아 다니지 아니하느냐 5또 찾은즉 즐거워 어깨에 메고 6집에 와서 그 벗과 이웃을 불러 모으고 말하되 나와 함께 즐기자 나의 잃은 양을 찾았노라 하리라 7내가 너희에게 이르노니 이와 같이 죄인 하나가 회개하면 하늘에서는 회개할 것 없는 의인 아흔아홉을 인하여 기뻐하는 것보다 더하리라 8어느 여자가 열 드라크마가 있는데 하나를 잃으면 등불을 켜고 집을 쓸며 찾도록 부지런히 찾지 아니하겠느냐 9또 찾은즉 벗과 이웃을 불러 모으고 말하되 나와 함께 즐기자 잃은 드라크마를 찾았노라 하리라 10내가 너희에게 이르노니 이와 같이 죄인 하나가 회개하면 하나님의 사자들 앞에 기쁨이 되느니라 11또 가라사대 어떤 사람이 두 아들이 있는데 12그 둘째가 아비에게 말하되 아버지여 재산 중에서 내게 돌아올 분깃을 내게 주소서 하는지라 아비가 그 살림을 각각 나눠 주었더니 13그 후 며칠이 못되어 둘째 아들이 재산을 다 모아 가지고 먼 나라에 가 거기서 허랑방탕하여 그 재산을 허비하더니 14다 없이한 후 그 나라에 크게 훙년이 들어 저가 비로소 궁핍한지라 15가서 그 나라 백성 중 하나에게 붙여 사니 그가 저를 들로 보내어 돼지를 치게 하였는데 16저가 돼지 먹는 쥐엄 열매로 배을 채우고자 하되 주는 자가 없는지라 17이에 스스로 돌이켜 가로되 내 아버지에게는 양식이 풍족한 품꾼이 얼마나 많은고 나는 여기서 주려 죽는구나 18내가 일어나 아버지께 가서 이르기를 아버지여 내가 하늘과 아버지께 죄를 얻었사오니 19지금부터는 아버지의 아들이라 일컬음을 감당치 못하겠나이다 나를 품꾼의 하나로 보소서 하리라 하고 20이에 일어나서 아버지께 돌아 가니라 아직도 상거가 먼데 아버지가 저를 보고 측은히 여겨 달려가 목을 안고 입을 맞추니 21아들이 가로되 아버지여 내가 하늘과 아버지께 죄를 얻었사오니 지금부터는 아버지의 아들이라 일컬음을 감당치 못하겠나이다 하나 22아버지는 종들에게 이르되 제일 좋은 옷을 내어다가 입히고 손에 가락지를 끼우고 발에 신을 신기라 23그리고 살진 송아지를 끌어다가 잡으라 우리가 먹고 즐기자 24이 내 아들은 죽었다가 다시 살아났으며 내가 잃었다가 다시 얻었노라 하니 저희가 즐거워하더라 25맏아들은 밭에 있다가 돌아와 집에 가까웠을 때에 풍류와 춤추는 소리를 듣고 26한 종을 불러 이 무슨 일인가 물은대 27대답하되 당신의 동생이 돌아왔으매 당신의 아버지가 그의 건강한 몸을 다시 맞아 들이게 됨을 인하여 살진 송아지를 잡았나이다 하니 28저가 노하여 들어가기를 즐겨 아니하거늘 아버지가 나와서 권한대 29아버지께 대답하여 가로되 내가 여러 해 아버지를 섬겨 명을 어김이 없거늘 내게는 염소 새끼라도 주어 나와 내 벗으로 즐기게 하신 일이 없더니 30아버지의 살림을 창기와 함께 먹어버린 이 아들이 돌아오매 이를 위하여 살진 송아지를 잡으셨나이다 31아버지가 이르되 얘 너는 항상 나와 함께 있으니 내 것이 다 네 것이로되 32이 네 동생은 죽었다가 살았으며 내가 잃었다가 얻었기로 우리가 즐거워하고 기뻐하는 것이 마땅하다 하니라

1Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming close to him to hear him. 2The Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, “This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them.” 3He told them this parable. 4“Which of you men, if you had one hundred sheep, and lost one of them, wouldn’t leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one that was lost, until he found it? 5When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6When 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!’ 7I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance. 8Or what woman, if she had ten drachmacoins, if she lost one drachma coin, wouldn’t light a lamp, sweep the house, and seek diligently until she found it? 9When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost.’ 10Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting.” 11He said, “A certain man had two sons. 12The younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of your property.’ He divided his livelihood between them. 13Not many days after, the younger son gathered all of this together and traveled into a far country. There he wasted his property with riotous living. 14When he had spent all of it, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in need. 15He went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed pigs. 16He wanted to fill his belly with the husks that the pigs ate, but no one gave him any. 17But when he came to himself he said, ‘How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough to spare, and I’m dying with hunger! 18I will get up and go to my father, and will tell him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight. 19I am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired servants.”’ 20“He arose, and came to his father. But while he was still far off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. 21The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ 22“But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring out the best robe, and put it on him. Put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet. 23Bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let us eat, and celebrate; 24for this, my son, was dead, and is alive again. He was lost, and is found.’ They began to celebrate. 25“Now his elder son was in the field. As he came near to the house, he heard music and dancing. 26He called one of the servants to him, and asked what was going on. 27He said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has received him back safe and healthy.’ 28But he was angry, and would not go in. Therefore his father came out, and begged him. 29But he answered his father, ‘Behold, these many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed a commandment of yours, but you never gave me a goat, that I might celebrate with my friends. 30But when this, your son, came, who has devoured your living with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.’ 31“He said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours. 32But it was appropriate to celebrate and be glad, for this, your brother, was dead, and is alive again. He was lost, and is found.’”

1En al de tollenaars en de zondaars naderden tot Hem, om Hem te horen. 2En de Farizeen en de Schriftgeleerden murmureerden, zeggende: Deze ontvangt de zondaars, en eet met hen. 3En Hij sprak tot hen deze gelijkenis, zeggende: 4Wat mens onder u, hebbende honderd schapen; en een van die verliezende, verlaat niet de negen en negentig in de woestijn, en gaat naar het verlorene, totdat hij hetzelve vinde? 5En als hij het gevonden heeft, legt hij het op zijn schouders, verblijd zijnde. 6En te huis komende, roept hij de vrienden en de geburen samen, zeggende tot hen: Weest blijde met mij; want ik heb mijn schaap gevonden, dat verloren was. 7Ik zeg ulieden, dat er alzo blijdschap zal zijn in den hemel over een zondaar, die zich bekeert, meer dan over negen en negentig rechtvaardigen, die de bekering niet van node hebben. 8Of wat vrouw, hebbende tien penningen, indien zij een penning verliest, ontsteekt niet een kaars, en keert het huis met bezemen, en zoekt naarstiglijk, totdat zij dien vindt? 9En als zij dien gevonden heeft, roept zij de vriendinnen en de geburinnen samen, zeggende: Weest blijde met mij; want ik heb den penning gevonden, dien ik verloren had. 10Alzo, zeg Ik ulieden, is er blijdschap voor de engelen Gods over een zondaar, die zich bekeert. 11En Hij zeide: Een zeker mens had twee zonen. 12En de jongste van hen zeide tot den vader: Vader, geef mij het deel des goeds, dat mij toekomt. En hij deelde hun het goed. 13En niet vele dagen daarna, de jongste zoon, alles bijeenvergaderd hebbende, is weggereisd in een ver gelegen land, en heeft aldaar zijn goed doorgebracht, levende overdadiglijk. 14En als hij het alles verteerd had, werd er een grote hongersnood in datzelve land, en hij begon gebrek te lijden. 15En hij ging heen, en voegde zich bij een van de burgers deszelven lands; en die zond hem op zijn land om de zwijnen te weiden. 16En hij begeerde zijn buik te vullen met den draf, dien de zwijnen aten; en niemand gaf hem dien. 17En tot zichzelven gekomen zijnde, zeide hij: Hoe vele huurlingen mijns vaders hebben overvloed van brood, en ik verga van honger! 18Ik zal opstaan en tot mijn vader gaan, en ik zal tot hem zeggen: Vader, ik heb gezondigd tegen den Hemel, en voor u; 19En ik ben niet meer waardig uw zoon genaamd te worden; maak mij als een van uw huurlingen. 20En opstaande, ging hij naar zijn vader. En als hij nog ver van hem was, zag hem zijn vader, en werd met innerlijke ontferming bewogen; en toe lopende, viel hem om zijn hals, en kuste hem. 21En de zoon zeide tot hem: Vader, ik heb gezondigd tegen den Hemel, en voor u, en ben niet meer waardig uw zoon genaamd te worden. 22Maar de vader zeide tot zijn dienstknechten: Brengt hier voor het beste kleed, en doet het hem aan, en geeft hem een ring aan zijn hand, en schoenen aan de voeten; 23En brengt het gemeste kalf, en slacht het; en laat ons eten en vrolijk zijn. 24Want deze mijn zoon was dood, en is weder levend geworden; en hij was verloren, en is gevonden! En zij begonnen vrolijk te zijn. 25En zijn oudste zoon was in het veld; en als hij kwam, en het huis genaakte, hoorde hij het gezang en het gerei, 26En tot zich geroepen hebbende een van de knechten, vraagde, wat dat mocht zijn. 27En deze zeide tot hem: Uw broeder is gekomen, en uw vader heeft het gemeste kalf geslacht, omdat hij hem gezond weder ontvangen heeft. 28Maar hij werd toornig, en wilde niet ingaan. Zo ging dan zijn vader uit, en bad hem. 29Doch hij, antwoordende, zeide tot den vader: Zie, ik dien u nu zo vele jaren, en heb nooit uw gebod overtreden, en gij hebt mij nooit een bokje gegeven, opdat ik met mijn vrienden mocht vrolijk zijn. 30Maar als deze uw zoon gekomen is, die uw goed met hoeren doorgebracht heeft, zo hebt gij hem het gemeste kalf geslacht. 31En hij zeide tot hem: Kind, gij zijt altijd bij mij, en al het mijne is uwe. 32Men behoorde dan vrolijk en blijde te zijn; want deze uw broeder was dood, en is weder levend geworden; en hij was verloren, en is gevonden.
