Luke 15

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	NOVA VULGATA
1 Now the tax collectors and sinners were all drawing near to hear him.	1 Erant autem appropinquan tes ei omnes publicani et pec catores, utaudirent illum.
2 And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, "This man receives sinners and eats with them."	2 Et murmurabant pharisaei et scribae dicentes: “ Hicpeccatores recipit et manducat cum illis ”.
3 So he told them this parable:	3 Et ait ad illos parabolam istamdicens:
4 "What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost, until he finds it?	4 “ Quis ex vobis homo, qui habet centum oves et si perdiderit unam exillis, nonne dimittit nonaginta novem in deserto et vadit ad illam, quaeperierat, donec inveniat illam?
5 And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.	5 Et cum invenerit eam, imponit in umeros suosgaudens
6 And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.'	6 et veniens domum convocat amicos et vicinos dicens illis: “Congratulaminimihi, quia inveni ovem meam, quae perierat”.
7 Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.	7 Dico vobis: Ita gaudium erit incaelo super uno peccatore paenitentiam agente quam super nonaginta novem iustis,qui non indigent paenitentia.
8 "Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek diligently until she finds it?	8 Aut quae mulier habens drachmas decem, si perdiderit drachmam unam, nonneaccendit lucernam et everrit domum et quaerit diligenter, donec inveniat?
9 And 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.'	9 Etcum invenerit, convocat amicas et vicinas dicens: “Congratulamini mihi, quiainveni drachmam, quam perdideram”.
10 Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents."	10 Ita dico vobis: Gaudium fit coramangelis Dei super uno peccatore paenitentiam agente ”.
11 And he said, "There was a man who had two sons;	11 Ait autem: “ Homo quidam habebat duos filios.
12 and the younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the share of property that falls to me.' And he divided his living between them.	12 Et dixit adulescentior exillis patri: “Pater, da mihi portionem substantiae, quae me contingit”. Etdivisit illis substantiam.
13 Not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took his journey into a far country, and there he squandered his property in loose living.	13 Et non post multos dies, congregatis omnibus,adulescentior filius peregre profectus est in regionem longinquam et ibidissipavit substantiam suam vivendo luxuriose.
14 And when he had spent everything, a great famine arose in that country, and he began to be in want.	14 Et postquam omniaconsummasset, facta est fames valida in regione illa, et ipse coepit egere.
15 So he went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed swine.	15 Et abiit et adhaesit uni civium regionis illius, et misit illum in villam suam,ut pasceret porcos;
16 And he would gladly have fed on the pods that the swine ate; and no one gave him anything.	16 et cupiebat saturari de siliquis, quas porci manducabant,et nemo illi dabat.
17 But when he came to himself he said, 'How many of my father's hired servants have bread enough and to spare, but I perish here with hunger!	17 In se autem reversus dixit: “Quanti mercennarii patrismei abundant panibus, ego autem hic fame pereo.
18 I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you;	18 Surgam et ibo ad patrem meumet dicam illi: Pater, peccavi in caelum et coram te
19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; treat me as one of your hired servants."'	19 et iam non sum dignusvocari filius tuus; fac me sicut unum de mercennariis tuis”.
20 And he arose and came to his father. But while he was yet at a distance, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.	20 Et surgensvenit ad patrem suum. Cum autem adhuc longe esset, vidit illum pater ipsius et misericordia motus estet accurrens cecidit supra collum eius et osculatus est illum.
21 And the son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your son.'	21 Dixitque eifilius: “Pater, peccavi in caelum et coram te; iam non sum dignus vocarifilius tuus”.
22 But the father said to his servants, 'Bring quickly the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet;	22 Dixit autem pater ad servos suos: “Cito proferte stolamprimam et induite illum et date anulum in manum eius et calceamenta in pedes
23 and bring the fatted calf and kill it, and let us eat and make merry;	23 et adducite vitulum saginatum, occidite et manducemus et epulemur,
24 for this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.' And they began to make merry.	24 quia hicfilius meus mortuus erat et revixit, perierat et inventus est”. Et coeperuntepulari.
25 "Now his elder son was in the field; and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing.	25 Erat autem filius eius senior in agro et, cum veniret et appropinquaretdomui, audivit symphoniam et choros
26 And he called one of the servants and asked what this meant.	26 et vocavit unum de servis et interrogavitquae haec essent.
27 And he said to him, 'Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him safe and sound.'	27 Isque dixit illi: “Frater tuus venit, et occidit patertuus vitulum saginatum, quia salvum illum recepit”.
28 But he was angry and refused to go in. His father came out and entreated him,	28 Indignatus est autem etnolebat introire. Pater ergo illius egressus coepit rogare illum.
29 but he answered his father, 'Lo, these many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed your command; yet you never gave me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends.	29 At illerespondens dixit patri suo: “Ecce tot annis servio tibi et numquam mandatumtuum praeterii, et numquam dedisti mihi haedum, ut cum amicis meis epularer;
30 But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your living with harlots, you killed for him the fatted calf!'	30 sed postquam filius tuus hic, qui devoravit substantiam tuam cum meretricibus,venit, occidisti illi vitulum saginatum”.
31 And he said to him, 'Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours.	31 At ipse dixit illi: “Fili, tu semper mecum es, et omnia mea tua sunt;
32 It was fitting to make merry and be glad, for this your brother was dead, and is alive; he was lost, and is found.'"	32 epulari autem et gaudere oportebat, quia frater tuus hic mortuus erat etrevixit, perierat et inventus est” ”.
