Ngụ Ngôn Về Con Chiên Đi Lạc(A)
15 Bấy giờ, tất cả người thu thuế và người tội lỗi đều đến gần Chúa để nghe Ngài dạy dỗ. 2 Các người Pha-ri-si và giáo sư Kinh Luật lầm bầm: “Ông này tiếp hạng người tội lỗi và ăn uống với họ!”
3 Đức Giê-su bèn dạy họ ngụ ngôn này: 4 “Có ai trong các ông có một trăm con chiên, mất một con, lại không để chín mươi chín con kia giữa đồng hoang để đi tìm con chiên thất lạc cho kỳ được? 5 Khi tìm được, người liền vui mừng vác lên vai, 6 về đến nhà, mời bạn hữu và láng giềng đến mà nói: ‘Hãy vui với tôi, vì tôi đã tìm được con chiên đi lạc!’ Ta bảo các ông: 7 Cũng thế, thiên đàng sẽ vui mừng về một tội nhân ăn năn hơn là chín mươi chín người công chính không cần ăn năn.
8 Hoặc có người đàn bà nào có mười quan tiền mất đi một quan, mà lại không thắp đèn, quét nhà; và cẩn thận tìm kiếm cho kỳ được? 9 Khi tìm được, nàng mời bạn hữu và láng giềng đến mà nói: ‘Hãy vui với tôi, vì tôi đã tìm được quan tiền bị mất!’ 10 Ta bảo các ông: ‘Cũng thế, các thiên sứ trước mặt Đức Chúa Trời sẽ vui mừng vì một tội nhân ăn năn.’ ”
11 Ngài tiếp: “Một người kia có hai con trai. 12 Đứa em thưa với cha: ‘Cha ơi, xin cha cho con phần tài sản[a] của con.’ Người Cha chia gia tài cho các con.
13 Chẳng bao lâu, đứa em thu hết tài sản, lên đường đi đến một nơi xa, ở đó ăn chơi[b] trác táng, tiêu sạch gia tài mình. 14 Khi nó đã tiêu hết tiền, cả xứ ấy bị nạn đói trầm trọng, nên nó bắt đầu túng ngặt. 15 Nó đi làm thuê cho một người dân bản xứ, và được sai ra đồng chăn[c] heo. 16 Nó mơ ước được ăn vỏ đậu heo ăn để lấp đầy bụng, nhưng chẳng ai cho.
17 Nó tỉnh ngộ, tự nhủ: ‘Bao nhiêu kẻ làm thuê của cha ta đều có bánh ăn dư dật, mà nơi đây ta lại đang chết đói. 18 Ta sẽ đứng dậy đi về với cha ta và thưa: “Cha ơi, con đã phạm tội với Trời và với cha, 19 không đáng gọi là con của cha nữa. Xin cha coi con[d] như là một người làm thuê của cha.” ’
20 Rồi nó đứng dậy, trở về với cha mình. Nhưng khi nó còn ở đàng xa, người cha thấy nó thì động lòng thương xót, liền chạy ra ôm cổ nó mà hôn.
21 Người con thưa: ‘Cha ơi, con đã phạm tội với Trời và với cha, không đáng gọi là con của cha nữa.’
22 Nhưng cha nó bảo các đầy tớ: ‘Hãy mau mau đem áo dài đẹp nhất mặc cho cậu, đeo nhẫn vào tay, mang dép vào chân. 23 Cũng hãy bắt[e] con bò tơ mập làm thịt để ăn mừng, 24 vì con ta đây đã chết mà nay sống lại, đã mất mà tìm lại được.’ Vậy họ bắt đầu ăn mừng.
25 Nhưng người con cả ở ngoài đồng về gần đến nhà, nghe tiếng đàn ca nhảy múa, 26 nên gọi một đầy tớ nhỏ mà hỏi đầu đuôi. 27 Nó đáp: ‘Em cậu mới về, nên ông chủ[f] hạ con bê mập ăn mừng vì thấy cậu ấy về mạnh khỏe.’
28 Người con cả nổi giận, không chịu vào nhà, nên cha nó phải ra năn nỉ. 29 Nhưng nó đáp: ‘Bao nhiêu năm qua, con đã phục vụ cha, không bao giờ trái lệnh cha, thế mà cha chẳng bao giờ cho con một con dê để ăn chơi với bạn hữu. 30 Nhưng thằng con kia của cha đã nướng sạch tài sản cha với bọn đĩ điếm, rồi quay về, thì cha lại làm thịt con bò mập mừng nó.’[g]
31 Cha nó giải thích: ‘Con ơi, con luôn luôn ở với cha, mọi tài sản của cha đều thuộc về con. 32 Nhưng ta phải ăn mừng hoan hỉ vì em con đã chết, mà nay được sống, đã mất mà nay tìm lại được.’ ”

迷失的羊
15 许多税吏和罪人都来听耶稣讲道， 2 法利赛人和律法教师埋怨说：“这个人竟和罪人来往，还跟他们一起吃饭。”
3 耶稣给他们讲了一个比喻： 4 “如果你们有人有一百只羊，走失了一只，难道他不暂时把那九十九只留在草场上，去找那只迷失的羊，一直到找着为止吗？ 5 他找到后，会欢欢喜喜地把那只羊扛回家， 6 并邀来朋友邻居，说，‘我走失的羊找到了，来和我一同庆祝吧！’ 7 我告诉你们，同样，一个罪人悔改，在天上也要这样为他欢喜，甚至比有九十九个不用悔改的义人还欢喜。
丢钱的比喻
8 “又比如一个妇人有十块钱，不小心弄丢了一块，难道她不点亮灯，打扫房子，仔细寻找一直到找着为止吗？ 9 她找到后，会邀朋友邻居来，说，‘我丢的钱找到了，来和我一同庆祝吧！’ 10 我告诉你们，同样，一个罪人悔改，上帝的众天使也会这样为他欢喜。”
浪子回头
11 耶稣又说：“某人有两个儿子。 12 小儿子对父亲说，‘父亲，请你把我应得的家产分给我。’父亲就把财产分给了两个儿子。
13 “没过几天，小儿子带着他所有的财物出门远游去了。他终日在外花天酒地，挥金如土， 14 很快囊空如洗，又遇到严重的饥荒，就陷入困境， 15 只好投靠一个当地人。那人派他到田里去放猪， 16 他饿到恨不得拿喂猪的豆荚充饥，可是连这些也没有人给他。 17 最后，他醒悟过来，心想，‘在我父亲家里，连雇工的口粮都绰绰有余，我现在却要在这里饿死吗？ 18 我要动身回到我父亲身边，对他说，父亲，我得罪了天，也得罪了你， 19 今后，我再也不配做你的儿子，请把我当作雇工看待吧。’ 20 于是他动身回家。
“他父亲远远地看见他，就动了慈心，跑上前去抱着他连连亲吻。 21 小儿子说，‘父亲，我得罪了天，也得罪了你，今后，我再也不配做你的儿子。’
22 “父亲却对奴仆说，‘赶快拿最好的袍子来给他穿上，给他戴上戒指，穿上鞋， 23 把那只肥牛犊牵来宰了，让我们一同欢宴庆祝！ 24 因我这儿子是死而复活、失而复得的。’于是他们欢宴庆祝。
25 “那时，大儿子正在田间。当他回来还没到门口，就听见家里传出奏乐跳舞的声音。 26 他叫来一个奴仆问个究竟。
27 “奴仆回答说，‘你弟弟回来了！你父亲因他无灾无难地回来，特地宰了那只肥牛犊。’ 28 大儿子很生气，不肯进去。父亲就出来劝他。
29 “他对父亲说，‘你看，我伺候你这么多年，从来没有违背过你的命令，可是你没有给过我一只羊羔，让我和朋友一同欢宴。 30 但你这个儿子在娼妓身上耗尽家财，一回来，你倒为他宰了肥牛犊！’
31 “父亲对他说，‘孩子啊！你一直在我身边，我所有的一切都是你的。 32 可是你弟弟是死而复活、失而复得的，所以我们应该欢喜快乐。’”

The Parable of the Lost Sheep(A)
15 Now the tax collectors(B) and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus. 2 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”(C)
3 Then Jesus told them this parable:(D) 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it?(E) 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’(F) 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.(G)
The Parable of the Lost Coin
8 “Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins[a] and loses one. Doesn’t she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.’(H) 10 In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”(I)
The Parable of the Lost Son
11 Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons.(J) 12 The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’(K) So he divided his property(L) between them.
13 “Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth(M) in wild living. 14 After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. 15 So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs.(N) 16 He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.
17 “When he came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! 18 I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned(O) against heaven and against you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.’ 20 So he got up and went to his father.
“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.(P)
21 “The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.(Q) I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe(R) and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger(S) and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. 24 For this son of mine was dead and is alive again;(T) he was lost and is found.’ So they began to celebrate.(U)
25 “Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. 26 So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. 27 ‘Your brother has come,’ he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’
28 “The older brother became angry(V) and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. 29 But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. 30 But when this son of yours who has squandered your property(W) with prostitutes(X) comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!’
31 “‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. 32 But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’”(Y)

A Lost Sheep, a Lost Coin(A)
15 The tax collectors [C who were despised because they worked for the Roman rulers and were notorious for corruption and extortion] and sinners all ·came [drew near] to listen to Jesus. 2 But the Pharisees and the ·teachers of the law [scribes] began to ·complain [murmur; grumble]: “Look, this man ·welcomes [associates with; receives] sinners and even eats with them [C indicating social acceptance].”
3 ·Then [So] Jesus told them this ·story [parable]: 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep but loses one of them. ·Then he will [L Won’t he…?] leave the other ninety-nine sheep in the ·open field [wilderness; desert] and go out and look for the lost sheep until he finds it. 5 And when he finds it, he ·happily [joyfully] puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. He calls ·to [together] his friends and neighbors and says, ‘·Be happy [Rejoice] with me because I found my lost sheep.’ 7 In the same way, I tell you there is more joy in heaven over one sinner who ·changes his heart and life [repents], than over ninety-nine ·good [righteous; C self-righteous] people who don’t need to ·change [repent].
8 “[L Or] Suppose a woman has ten silver coins [C Greek: drachmas; each equal to about a day’s wage], but loses one. ·She will [Won’t she…?] light a lamp, sweep the house, and ·look [search] carefully for the coin until she finds it. 9 And when she finds it, she will call her friends and neighbors and say, ‘·Be happy [Rejoice] with me because I have found the ·coin [L drachma] that I lost.’ 10 In the same way, [L I tell you] there is joy in the presence of the angels of God when one sinner ·changes his heart and life [repents].”
The Son Who Left Home
11 Then Jesus said, “A man had two sons. 12 The younger son said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the ·property [estate; C his inheritance].’ So the father divided the ·property [wealth; assets; L life] between his two sons. 13 ·Then [Some time later; L After not many days] the younger son gathered up all that was his and traveled ·far away to another [to a distant] country. There he ·wasted [squandered; scattered] his money in ·foolish [wild; reckless] living. 14 After he had spent everything, a time came when there was ·no food anywhere [L a severe famine] in the country, and the son ·was poor and hungry [L began to be in need]. 15 So he ·got a job with [hired himself out to] one of the citizens there who sent the son into the fields to feed pigs [C degrading work, since pigs were ritually unclean and detestable animals to Jews]. 16 The son was so hungry that he wanted to ·eat [or fill his stomach with] the pods the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything. 17 When he ·realized what he was doing [came to his senses; L came to himself], he thought, ‘All of my father’s ·servants [hired workers] have ·plenty of [more than enough; abundant] ·food [bread]. But I am here, ·almost dying [perishing] with hunger. 18 I will ·leave and return [get up and go] to my father and say to him, “Father, I have sinned against ·God [L heaven; C Jews often used “heaven” for “God” out of reverence for the divine Name] and against you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son, but ·let me be [make me] like one of your ·servants [hired workers].”’ 20 So the son left and went to his father.
“While the son was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt ·sorry [compassion] for his son. So the father ran to him [C an undignified act for a family patriarch; evidence of his unrestrained love] and hugged and kissed him. 21 The son said, ‘Father, I have sinned against ·God [L heaven; v. 18] and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’[a] 22 But the father said to his ·servants [slaves], ‘Hurry! Bring the ·best clothes [L first/best robe; C either the father’s own, or a ceremonial robe for an honored guest] and put them on him. Also, put a ring on his finger [C probably a signet ring indicating sonship and authority; Gen. 41:42] and sandals on his feet [C slaves went barefoot]. 23 And get our ·fat [fattened; C prepared for slaughter] calf and kill it [C people only occasionally ate meat; such a large animal indicates a major celebration] so we can have a feast and celebrate. 24 My son was dead, but now he is alive again! He was lost, but now he is found!’ So they began to celebrate.
25 “The older son was in the field, and as he came closer to the house, he heard the sound of music and dancing. 26 So he ·called to [summoned] one of the [household] servants and asked what all this meant. 27 The servant said, ‘Your brother has come back, and your father killed the ·fat [fattened; v. 23] calf, because your brother came home ·safely [healthy; safe and sound].’ 28 The older son was angry and ·would not [had no desire to] go in to the feast. So his father went out and ·begged [urged; encouraged] him to come in. 29 But the older son ·said to [answered] his father, ‘[L Look; T Behold] I have served you like a slave for many years and have ·always obeyed [never disobeyed; L never neglected] your commands. But you never gave me even a young goat to ·have at a feast [celebrate] with my friends. 30 But ·your other son [L this son of yours], who ·wasted [squandered; devoured] ·all your money [your property; L your life] on prostitutes, comes home, and you kill the fat [fattened; v. 23] calf for him!’ 31 The father said to him, ‘·Son [Child], you ·are always with [or have always stood by] me, and all that I have is yours. 32 [L But] We had to celebrate and ·be happy [rejoice] because ·your brother [L this brother of yours; v. 30] was dead, but ·now he is alive [has come back to life]. He was lost, but now he is found.’”
