And the younger of them said to the father, Father, give to me the portion of the estate that falls to me. And he immediately divided unto them his living. And not many days afterward the younger son gathering all together, departed into a far-off country; and there wasted his substance living riotously. And he having expended all, a severe famine came into that country; and he began to be in want. And having gone he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country: and he sent him into his fields to feed swine: and he was desiring to fill his stomach from the pods, which the swine were eating: and no one gave unto him: and having come to himself he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread in abundance, but here I perish with hunger!

And they began to be merry. And his elder son was in the field: and while coming he drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. And calling one of the servants, asked him what these things might be. And he said to him, Because thy brother has come; and thy father has slain the fatted calf, because he received him sound. And he was angry, and did not wish to come in: and his father having gone out, continued to intreat him. And responding he said to the father, Behold, I serve thee so many years, and have never transgressed thy commandment: and thou hast never given me a kid, that I may rejoice with my friends: but when this thy son, the one devouring thy living with harlots came, thou hast slain for him the fatted calf. And he said to him, Child, thou art always with me, and all mine are thine: and it behooved me to be glad and rejoice; because this thy brother was dead, and is alive; was lost, and is found.

Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.

But the publican, standing a great way off, did not wish even to lift up his eyes to the heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God, be merciful to me the sinner.
