1Now all the tax collectors and sinners were gathering around to listen to Jesus.
1Y SE llegaban á él todos los publicanos y pecadores á oirle.
2So the Pharisees and scribes began to grumble: “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”
2Y murmuraban los Fariseos y los escribas, diciendo: Este á los pecadores recibe, y con ellos come.
3Then Jesus told them this parable:
3Y él les propuso esta parábola, diciendo:
4“What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep and loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the pasture and go after the one that is lost, until he finds it?
4¿Qué hombre de vosotros, teniendo cien ovejas, si perdiere una de ellas, no deja las noventa y nueve en el desierto, y va á la que se perdió, hasta que la halle?
5And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders,
5Y hallada, la pone sobre sus hombros gozoso;
6comes home, and calls together his friends and neighbors to tell them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost sheep!’
6Y viniendo á casa, junta á los amigos y á los vecinos, diciéndoles: Dadme el parabién, porque he hallado mi oveja que se había perdido.
7In the same way, I tell you that there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous ones who do not need to repent.
7Os digo, que así habrá más gozo en el cielo de un pecador que se arrepiente, que de noventa y nueve justos, que no necesitan arrepentimiento.
8Or what woman who has ten silver coins and loses one of them does not light a lamp, sweep her house, and search carefully until she finds it?
8¿O qué mujer que tiene diez dracmas, si perdiere una dracma, no enciende el candil, y barre la casa, y busca con diligencia hasta hallarla?
9And when she finds it, she calls together her friends and neighbors to say, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost coin.’
9Y cuando la hubiere hallado, junta las amigas y las vecinas, diciendo: Dadme el parabién, porque he hallado la dracma que había perdido.
10In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”
10Así os digo que hay gozo delante de los ángeles de Dios por un pecador que se arrepiente.
11Then Jesus said, “There was a man who had two sons.
11Y dijo: Un hombre tenía dos hijos;
12The younger son said to him, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.
12Y el menor de ellos dijo á su padre: Padre, dame la parte de la hacienda que me pertenece: y les repartió la hacienda.
13After a few days, the younger son got everything together and journeyed to a distant country, where he squandered his wealth in wild living.
13Y no muchos días después, juntándolo todo el hijo menor, partió lejos á una provincia apartada; y allí desperdició su hacienda viviendo perdidamente.
14After he had spent all he had, a severe famine swept through that country, and he began to be in need.
14Y cuando todo lo hubo malgastado, vino una grande hambre en aquella provincia, y comenzóle á faltar.
15So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed the pigs.
15Y fué y se llegó á uno de los ciudadanos de aquella tierra, el cual le envió á su hacienda para que apacentase los puercos.
16He longed to fill his belly with the pods the pigs were eating, but no one would give him a thing.
16Y deseaba henchir su vientre de las algarrobas que comían los puercos; mas nadie se las daba.
17Finally he came to his senses and said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have plenty of food? But here I am, starving to death!
17Y volviendo en sí, dijo: ¡Cuántos jornaleros en casa de mi padre tienen abundancia de pan, y yo aquí perezco de hambre!
18I will get up and go back to my father and say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.
18Me levantaré, é iré á mi padre, y le diré: Padre, he pecado contra el cielo, y contra ti;
19I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.”’
19Ya no soy digno de ser llamado tu hijo; hazme como á uno de tus jornaleros.
20So he got up and went to his father. But while he was still in the distance, his father saw him and was filled with compassion. He ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him.
20Y levantándose, vino á su padre. Y como aun estuviese lejos, viólo su padre, y fué movido á misericordia, y corrió, y echóse sobre su cuello, y besóle.
21The son declared, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
21Y el hijo le dijo: Padre, he pecado contra el cielo, y contra ti, y ya no soy digno de ser llamado tu hijo.
22But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.
22Mas el padre dijo á sus siervos: Sacad el principal vestido, y vestidle; y poned un anillo en su mano, y zapatos en sus pies.
23Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let us feast and celebrate.
23Y traed el becerro grueso, y matadlo, y comamos, y hagamos fiesta:
24For this son of mine was dead and is alive again! He was lost and is found!’ So they began to celebrate.
24Porque este mi hijo muerto era, y ha revivido; habíase perdido, y es hallado. Y comenzaron á regocijarse.
25Meanwhile the older son was in the field, and as he approached the house, he heard music and dancing.
25Y su hijo el mayor estaba en el campo; el cual como vino, y llegó cerca de casa, oyó la sinfonía y las danzas;
26So he called one of the servants and asked what was going on.
26Y llamando á uno de los criados, preguntóle qué era aquello.
27‘Your brother has returned,’ he said, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has him back safe and sound.’
27Y él le dijo: Tu hermano ha venido; y tu padre ha muerto el becerro grueso, por haberle recibido salvo.
28The older son became angry and refused to go in. So his father came out and pleaded with him.
28Entonces se enojó, y no quería entrar. Salió por tanto su padre, y le rogaba que entrase .
29But he answered his father, ‘Look, all these years I have served you and never disobeyed a commandment of yours. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends.
29Mas él respondiendo, dijo al padre: He aquí tantos años te sirvo, no habiendo traspasado jamás tu mandamiento, y nunca me has dado un cabrito para gozarme con mis amigos:
30But when this son of yours returns from squandering your wealth with prostitutes, you kill the fattened calf for him!’
30Mas cuando vino éste tu hijo, que ha consumido tu hacienda con rameras, has matado para él el becerro grueso.
31‘Son, you are always with me,’ the father said, ‘and all that is mine is yours.
31El entonces le dijo: Hijo, tú siempre estás conmigo, y todas mis cosas son tuyas.
32But it was fitting to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’”
32Mas era menester hacer fiesta y holgar nos , porque este tu hermano muerto era, y ha revivido; habíase perdido, y es hallado.
