11 He said and: A man certain had two sons.

12 And said to younger of them to the father: O father, give to me the falling to part of the property. And he divided to them the living.

13 And after not many days having gathered together all the younger son, went abroad into a country distant; and there wasted the property of himself, living dissolutely.

18 Having arisen I will go the father of me, and will say to him: O father, I sinned against the heaven and in presence of thee;

19 no longer I am fit to be called a son of thee; make me as one of the hired servants of thee.

20 And having arisen he went to the father of himself. While but of him at a distance being, saw him the father of him, and was moved with pity; and running he fell on the neck of him and repeatedly kissed him.

21 Said and to him the son: O father, I sinned against the heaven and in presence of thee; and no longer I am fit to be called a son of thee.

22 Said but the father to the slaves of himself: Bring you out the robe the chief, and clothe you him, and give you a fingerring into the hand of him, and shoes for the feet.

23 And having brought the calf the fatted do you sacrifice; and eating we may be joyful;

24 for this the son of me dead was, and again alive; and having been lost he was, and is found. And they began to be merry.

25 Was and the son of him the elder in a field; and as he was coming near to the house, he heard a sound of music and dancers.

26 And having called to one of the servants, he inquired what may be these things?

28 He was angry and, and not was disposed to enter. The therefore father of him going out besought him.

29 He and answering said to the father: Lo, so many years do I slave for thee, and never a command of thee I passed by; and to me never thou gavest a kid, that with the friends of me I might be joyful.

30 When and the son of the this, the having devoured of thee the living with harlots, come, thou has sacrificed for him the calf the fatted.

31 He and said to him: O child, thou always with me art, and all the mine thine is.
