 Luuk 15:17-24 Raamattu 1933/38

17 Niin hän meni itseensä ja sanoi: 'Kuinka monella minun isäni palkkalaisella on yltäkyllin leipää, mutta minä kuolen täällä nälkään!
18 Minä nousen ja menen isäni tykö ja sanon hänelle: Isä, minä olen tehnyt syntiä taivasta vastaan ja sinun edessäsi
19 enkä enää ansaitse, että minua sinun pojaksesi kutsutaan; tee minut yhdeksi palkkalaisistasi.'
20 Ja hän nousi ja meni isänsä tykö. Mutta kun hän vielä oli kaukana, näki hänen isänsä hänet ja armahti häntä, juoksi häntä vastaan ja lankesi hänen kaulaansa ja suuteli häntä hellästi.
21 Mutta poika sanoi hänelle: 'Isä, minä olen tehnyt syntiä taivasta vastaan ja sinun edessäsi enkä enää ansaitse, että minua sinun pojaksesi kutsutaan'.
22 Silloin isä sanoi palvelijoilleen: 'Tuokaa pian parhaat vaatteet ja pukekaa hänet niihin, ja pankaa sormus hänen sormeensa ja kengät hänen jalkaansa;
23 ja noutakaa syötetty vasikka ja teurastakaa. Ja syökäämme ja pitäkäämme iloa,
24 sillä tämä minun poikani oli kuollut ja virkosi eloon, hän oli kadonnut ja on jälleen löytynyt.' Ja he rupesivat iloa pitämään.

Luke 15:17-24 Amplified Bible
17 But when he [finally] came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired men have more than enough food, while I am dying here of hunger! 18 I will get up and go to my father, and I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; [just] treat me like one of your hired men.”’ 20 So he got up and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion for him, and ran and embraced him and kissed him. 21 And the 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, ‘Quickly bring out the best robe [for the guest of honor] and put it on him; and give him a [a]ring for his hand, and sandals for his feet. 23 And bring the fattened calf and slaughter it, and let us [invite everyone and] feast and celebrate; 24 for this son of mine was [as good as] dead and is alive again; he was lost and has been found.’ So they began to celebrate.

Luke 15:17-24 New Living Translation
17 “When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, ‘At home even the hired servants have food enough to spare, and here I am dying of hunger! 18 I will go home to my father and say, “Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, 19 and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired servant.”’
20 “So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. 21 His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.[a]’
22 “But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet. 23 And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, 24 for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ So the party began.
