²⁴ For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.

⁵ Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)

¹³ And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

⁴ What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?

¹⁰ For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

2 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

³² It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

¹⁶ I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment.

² For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

¹¹ Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
