17But when he came to his senses he said,‘How many of my father’s hired workers have food enough to spare, but here I am dying from hunger!
18I will get up and go to my father and say to him,“Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.
19I am no longer worthy to be called your son; treat me like one of your hired workers.”’
20So he got up and went to his father. But while he was still a long way from home his father saw him, and his heart went out to him; he ran and hugged his son and kissed him.

25“Now his older son was in the field. As he came and approached the house, he heard music and dancing.
26So he called one of the slaves and asked what was happening.
27The slave replied,‘Your brother has returned, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he got his son back safe and sound.’
28But the older son became angry and refused to go in. His father came out and appealed to him,
29but he answered his father,‘Look! These many years I have worked like a slave for you, and I never disobeyed your commands. Yet you never gave me even a goat so that I could celebrate with my friends!
30But when this son of yours came back, who has devoured your assets with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him!’
