The Lost Coin
8 “Or what woman, if she has ten [a]silver coins and loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, because I have found the coin which I had lost!’ 10 In the same way, I tell you, there is joy (A)in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”

8 Or what woman having ten drachmas[a], if she loses one drachma, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek carefully until which time she finds it ? 9 And having found it, she calls together her women friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice-with me, because I found the drachma which I lost!’ 10 In this manner, I say to you, joy comes-about in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting”.
