Matthew 18:12-14

New American Standard Bible

Ninety-nine Plus One

¹² “What do you think? ^(A)If any man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains, and go and search for the one that is lost? ¹³ And if it turns out that he finds it, truly I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray. ¹⁴ So it is not the will ^[a]of your Father who is in heaven for one of these little ones to perish.
