Luke 15:3 CPDV

¹  Now tax collectors and sinners were drawing near to him, so that they might listen to him.

²  And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, 'This one accepts sinners and eats with them.'

³  And he told this parable to them, saying:

⁴  'What man among you, who has one hundred sheep, and if he will have lost one of them, would not leave the ninety-nine in the desert and go after the one whom he had lost, until he finds it?

⁵  And when he has found it, he places it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
