The Parable of the Lost Sheep
1 Then all the tax collectors and the sinners
drew near to Him to hear Him. 2 And the Pharisees
and scribes complained, saying, “This Man receives sinners and eats with
them.” 3 So He spoke this parable to them, saying:
4 “What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he
loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and
go after the one which is lost until he finds it? 5
And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6
And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying
to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’
7 I say to you that likewise there will be more
joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons
who need no repentance."
