    23 And get the fat young ox and put it to death, and let us have a feast, and be glad.

    24 For this, my son, who was dead, is living again; he had gone away from me, and has come back. And they were full of joy.

    25 Now the older son was in the field: and when he came near the house, the sounds of music and dancing came to his ears.

    26 And he sent for one of the servants, questioning him about what it might be.

    27 And he said to him, Your brother has come; and your father has had the young ox put to death because he has come back safely.

    28 But he was angry and would not go in; and his father came out and made a request to him to come in.

    29 But he made answer and said to his father, See, all these years I have been your servant, doing your orders in everything: and you never gave me even a young goat so that I might have a feast with my friends:

    30 But when this your son came, who has been wasting your property with bad women, you put to death the fat young ox for him.

    31 And he said to him, Son, you are with me at all times, and all I have is yours.
