Luke 15:17-19

Expanded Bible

¹⁷ When he ·realized what he was doing [came to his senses; ^Lcame to himself], he thought, ‘All of my father’s ·servants [hired workers] have ·plenty of [more than enough; abundant] ·food [bread]. But I am here, ·almost dying [perishing] with hunger. ¹⁸ I will ·leave and return [get up and go] to my father and say to him, “Father, I have sinned against ·God [^Lheaven; ^CJews often used “heaven” for “God” out of reverence for the divine Name] and against you. ¹⁹ I am no longer worthy to be called your son, but ·let me be [make me] like one of your ·servants [hired workers].”’
