The King James Version Bible

Luke 15:28-30

  1. And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.

  2. And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:

  3. But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
