Luke 15:14-19

English Standard Version

¹⁴ And when he had spent everything, a severe famine arose in that country, and he began to be in need. ¹⁵ So he went and hired himself out to^[a] one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed pigs. ¹⁶ And he ^(A)was longing to be fed with the pods that the pigs ate, and no one gave him anything.

¹⁷ “But ^(B)when he ^(C)came to himself, he said, ‘How many of my father's hired servants have more than enough bread, but I perish here with hunger! ¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, “Father, ^(D)I have sinned against ^(E)heaven and before you. ^19 (F)I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired servants.”’
