路加福音 15
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
迷失的羊
15 许多税吏和罪人都来听耶稣讲道, 2 法利赛人和律法教师埋怨说:“这个人竟和罪人来往,还跟他们一起吃饭。”
3 耶稣给他们讲了一个比喻: 4 “如果你们有人有一百只羊,走失了一只,难道他不暂时把那九十九只留在草场上,去找那只迷失的羊,一直到找着为止吗? 5 他找到后,会欢欢喜喜地把那只羊扛回家, 6 并邀来朋友邻居,说,‘我走失的羊找到了,来和我一同庆祝吧!’ 7 我告诉你们,同样,一个罪人悔改,在天上也要这样为他欢喜,甚至比有九十九个不用悔改的义人还欢喜。
丢钱的比喻
8 “又比如一个妇人有十块钱,不小心弄丢了一块,难道她不点亮灯,打扫房子,仔细寻找一直到找着为止吗? 9 她找到后,会邀朋友邻居来,说,‘我丢的钱找到了,来和我一同庆祝吧!’ 10 我告诉你们,同样,一个罪人悔改,上帝的众天使也会这样为他欢喜。”
浪子回头
11 耶稣又说:“某人有两个儿子。 12 小儿子对父亲说,‘父亲,请你把我应得的家产分给我。’父亲就把财产分给了两个儿子。
13 “没过几天,小儿子带着他所有的财物出门远游去了。他终日在外花天酒地,挥金如土, 14 很快囊空如洗,又遇到严重的饥荒,就陷入困境, 15 只好投靠一个当地人。那人派他到田里去放猪, 16 他饿到恨不得拿喂猪的豆荚充饥,可是连这些也没有人给他。 17 最后,他醒悟过来,心想,‘在我父亲家里,连雇工的口粮都绰绰有余,我现在却要在这里饿死吗? 18 我要动身回到我父亲身边,对他说,父亲,我得罪了天,也得罪了你, 19 今后,我再也不配做你的儿子,请把我当作雇工看待吧。’ 20 于是他动身回家。
“他父亲远远地看见他,就动了慈心,跑上前去抱着他连连亲吻。 21 小儿子说,‘父亲,我得罪了天,也得罪了你,今后,我再也不配做你的儿子。’
22 “父亲却对奴仆说,‘赶快拿最好的袍子来给他穿上,给他戴上戒指,穿上鞋, 23 把那只肥牛犊牵来宰了,让我们一同欢宴庆祝! 24 因我这儿子是死而复活、失而复得的。’于是他们欢宴庆祝。
25 “那时,大儿子正在田间。当他回来还没到门口,就听见家里传出奏乐跳舞的声音。 26 他叫来一个奴仆问个究竟。
27 “奴仆回答说,‘你弟弟回来了!你父亲因他无灾无难地回来,特地宰了那只肥牛犊。’ 28 大儿子很生气,不肯进去。父亲就出来劝他。
29 “他对父亲说,‘你看,我伺候你这么多年,从来没有违背过你的命令,可是你没有给过我一只羊羔,让我和朋友一同欢宴。 30 但你这个儿子在娼妓身上耗尽家财,一回来,你倒为他宰了肥牛犊!’
31 “父亲对他说,‘孩子啊!你一直在我身边,我所有的一切都是你的。 32 可是你弟弟是死而复活、失而复得的,所以我们应该欢喜快乐。’”
Luke 15
Living Bible
15 Dishonest tax collectors and other notorious sinners often came to listen to Jesus’ sermons; 2 but this caused complaints from the Jewish religious leaders and the experts on Jewish law because he was associating with such despicable people—even eating with them!
3-4 So Jesus used this illustration: “If you had a hundred sheep and one of them strayed away and was lost in the wilderness, wouldn’t you leave the ninety-nine others to go and search for the lost one until you found it? 5 And then you would joyfully carry it home on your shoulders. 6 When you arrived you would call together your friends and neighbors to rejoice with you because your lost sheep was found.
7 “Well, in the same way heaven will be happier over one lost sinner who returns to God than over ninety-nine others who haven’t strayed away!
8 “Or take another illustration: A woman has ten valuable silver coins and loses one. Won’t she light a lamp and look in every corner of the house and sweep every nook and cranny until she finds it? 9 And then won’t she call in her friends and neighbors to rejoice with her? 10 In the same way there is joy in the presence of the angels of God when one sinner repents.”
11 To further illustrate the point, he told them this story: “A man had two sons. 12 When the younger told his father, ‘I want my share of your estate now, instead of waiting until you die!’ his father agreed to divide his wealth between his sons.
13 “A few days later this younger son packed all his belongings and took a trip to a distant land, and there wasted all his money on parties and prostitutes. 14 About the time his money was gone a great famine swept over the land, and he began to starve. 15 He persuaded a local farmer to hire him to feed his pigs. 16 The boy became so hungry that even the pods he was feeding the swine looked good to him. And no one gave him anything.
17 “When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, ‘At home even the hired men have food enough and to spare, and here I am, dying of hunger! 18 I will go home to my father and say, “Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, 19 and am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired man.”’
20 “So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long distance away, his father saw him coming, and was filled with loving pity and ran and embraced him and kissed him.
21 “His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and you, and am not worthy of being called your son—’
22 “But his father said to the slaves, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. And a jeweled ring for his finger; and shoes! 23 And kill the calf we have in the fattening pen. We must celebrate with a feast, 24 for this son of mine was dead and has returned to life. He was lost and is found.’ So the party began.
25 “Meanwhile, the older son was in the fields working; when he returned home, he heard dance music coming from the house, 26 and he asked one of the servants what was going on.
27 “‘Your brother is back,’ he was told, ‘and your father has killed the calf we were fattening and has prepared a great feast to celebrate his coming home again unharmed.’
28 “The older brother was angry and wouldn’t go in. His father came out and begged him, 29 but he replied, ‘All these years I’ve worked hard for you and never once refused to do a single thing you told me to; and in all that time you never gave me even one young goat for a feast with my friends. 30 Yet when this son of yours comes back after spending your money on prostitutes, you celebrate by killing the finest calf we have on the place.’
31 “‘Look, dear son,’ his father said to him, ‘you and I are very close, and everything I have is yours. 32 But it is right to celebrate. For he is your brother; and he was dead and has come back to life! He was lost and is found!’”
Luke 15
New International Version
The Parable of the Lost Sheep(A)
15 Now the tax collectors(B) and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus. 2 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”(C)
3 Then Jesus told them this parable:(D) 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it?(E) 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’(F) 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.(G)
The Parable of the Lost Coin
8 “Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins[a] and loses one. Doesn’t she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.’(H) 10 In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”(I)
The Parable of the Lost Son
11 Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons.(J) 12 The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’(K) So he divided his property(L) between them.
13 “Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth(M) in wild living. 14 After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. 15 So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs.(N) 16 He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.
17 “When he came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! 18 I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned(O) against heaven and against you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.’ 20 So he got up and went to his father.
“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.(P)
21 “The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.(Q) I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe(R) and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger(S) and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. 24 For this son of mine was dead and is alive again;(T) he was lost and is found.’ So they began to celebrate.(U)
25 “Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. 26 So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. 27 ‘Your brother has come,’ he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’
28 “The older brother became angry(V) and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. 29 But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. 30 But when this son of yours who has squandered your property(W) with prostitutes(X) comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!’
31 “‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. 32 But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’”(Y)

Parábola de la oveja perdida(A)
15 Muchos recaudadores de impuestos y pecadores se acercaban a Jesús para oírlo, 2 de modo que los fariseos y los maestros de la Ley se pusieron a murmurar: «Este hombre recibe a los pecadores y come con ellos».
3 Él entonces contó esta parábola: 4 «Supongamos que uno de ustedes tiene cien ovejas y pierde una de ellas. ¿No deja las noventa y nueve en el campo y va en busca de la oveja perdida hasta encontrarla? 5 Y cuando la encuentra, lleno de alegría, la carga en los hombros 6 y vuelve a la casa. Al llegar, reúne a sus amigos y vecinos y les dice: “Alégrense conmigo; ya encontré la oveja que se me había perdido”. 7 Les digo que así es también en el cielo: habrá más alegría por un solo pecador que se arrepienta que por noventa y nueve justos que no necesitan arrepentirse.
Parábola de la moneda perdida
8 »O supongamos que una mujer tiene diez monedas de plata[a] y pierde una. ¿No enciende una lámpara, barre la casa y busca con cuidado hasta encontrarla? 9 Y cuando la encuentra, reúne a sus amigas y vecinas y les dice: “Alégrense conmigo; ya encontré la moneda que se me había perdido”. 10 Les digo que así mismo se alegran los ángeles de Dios por un pecador que se arrepiente.
Parábola del hijo perdido
11 »Un hombre tenía dos hijos —continuó Jesús—. 12 El menor de ellos dijo a su padre: “Papá, dame lo que me toca de la herencia”. Así que el padre repartió sus bienes entre los dos. 13 Poco después el hijo menor juntó todo lo que tenía y se fue a un país lejano; allí vivió desenfrenadamente y derrochó su herencia.
14 »Cuando ya lo había gastado todo, sobrevino una gran escasez en la región y él comenzó a pasar necesidad. 15 Así que fue y consiguió empleo con un ciudadano de aquel país, quien lo mandó a sus campos a cuidar cerdos. 16 Tanta hambre tenía que hubiera querido llenarse el estómago con la comida que daban a los cerdos, pero aun así nadie le daba nada. 17 Por fin recapacitó y se dijo: “¡Cuántos jornaleros de mi padre tienen comida de sobra y yo aquí me muero de hambre! 18 Me levantaré e iré a mi padre y le diré: Papá, he pecado contra el cielo y contra ti. 19 Ya no merezco que se me llame tu hijo; trátame como si fuera uno de tus jornaleros”. 20 Así que emprendió el viaje y se fue a su padre.
»Todavía estaba lejos cuando su padre lo vio y se compadeció de él; salió corriendo a su encuentro, lo abrazó y lo besó. 21 El joven le dijo: “Papá, he pecado contra el cielo y contra ti. Ya no merezco que se me llame tu hijo”.[b] 22 Pero el padre ordenó a sus siervos: “¡Pronto! Traigan la mejor ropa para vestirlo. Pónganle también un anillo en el dedo y sandalias en los pies. 23 Traigan el ternero más gordo y mátenlo para celebrar un banquete. 24 Porque este hijo mío estaba muerto, pero ahora ha vuelto a la vida; se había perdido, pero ha sido hallado”. Así que empezaron a hacer fiesta.
25 »Mientras tanto, el hijo mayor estaba en el campo. Al volver, cuando se acercó a la casa, oyó que había música y danza. 26 Entonces llamó a uno de los siervos y le preguntó qué pasaba. 27 “Tu hermano ha llegado —le respondió—, y tu papá ha matado el ternero más gordo porque lo ha recobrado sano y salvo”. 28 Indignado, el hermano mayor se negó a entrar. Así que su padre salió a suplicarle que lo hiciera. 29 Pero él contestó: “¡Fíjate cuántos años te he servido sin desobedecer jamás tus órdenes y ni un cabrito me has dado para celebrar una fiesta con mis amigos! 30 ¡Pero ahora llega ese hijo tuyo, que ha despilfarrado tu fortuna con prostitutas, y tú mandas matar en su honor el ternero más gordo!”.
31 »“Hijo mío —le dijo su padre—, tú siempre estás conmigo y todo lo que tengo es tuyo. 32 Pero teníamos que hacer fiesta y alegrarnos, porque este hermano tuyo estaba muerto, pero ahora ha vuelto a la vida; se había perdido, pero ya lo hemos encontrado”».
