A story about a sheep that a man has lost[a]
3 So Jesus told them this story: 4 ‘Think about a man who has 100 sheep.[b] He may lose one of them. What does he do then? He leaves all his other sheep in the fields. Then he goes. He looks for the sheep that he has lost. He looks until he finds it. 5 When he finds the sheep, he is very happy. He lifts it up and he puts it across his shoulders.
