"Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your son.

 

But the father said to his slaves, Bring out quickly the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet.

 

And bring the fattened calf; slaughter it, and let us eat and be merry,

​

Because this son of mine was dead and lives again; he was lost and has been found." 

​

Luke 15:21-24
