- 就请朋友邻舍来,对他们说,我失去的羊已经找着了,你们和我一起欢喜吧。
- 我告诉你们,一个罪人悔改,在天上也要这样为他欢喜,较比为九十九个不用悔改的义人,欢喜更大。
- 或是一个妇人,有十块钱,若失落一块,岂不点上灯,打扫屋子,细细的找,直到找着麽。
- 找着了,就请朋友邻舍来,对他们说,我失落的那块钱已经找着了,你们和我一同欢喜吧。
- 我告诉你们,一个罪人悔改,在神的使者面前,也是这样为他欢喜。

- "Or what woman, if she has ten silver coins and loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it?
- "When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I had lost!'
- "In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents."
