He said, G3004 Yes. G3483 And when G3753 he was come G1525 into G1519 the house, G3614 Jesus G2424 prevented G4399 him, saying, G3004 What G5101 think G1380 you, Simon? G4613 of whom G5101 do the kings G935 of the earth G1093 take G2983 custom G5056 or G2228 tribute? G2778 of their own children, G5207 or G2228 of strangers? G245

Tell G2036 us therefore, G3767 What G5101 think G1380 you? Is it lawful G1832 to give G1325 tribute G2778 to Caesar, G2541 or G2228 not?

Or G2228 those G1565 eighteen, G1176 G2532 G3638 on whom G3739 the tower G4444 in Siloam G4611 fell, G4098 and slew G615 them, think G1380 you that they were sinners G3781 above G3844 all G3956 men G444 that dwelled G2730 in Jerusalem? G2419

I speak G3004 as to wise G5429 men; judge G2919 you what G3739 I say. G5346

And he said, G2036 A certain G5100 man G444 had G2192 two G1417 sons: G5207

And not many G4183 days G2250 after G3326 the younger G3501 son G5207 gathered G4863 all G537 together, G4863 and took G589 his journey G589 into G1519 a far G3117 country, G5561 and there G1563 wasted G1287 his substance G3776 with riotous G811 living. G2198

And he went G4198 and joined G2853 himself G1438 to a citizen G4177 of that country; G5561 and he sent G3992 him into G1519 his fields G68 to feed G1006 swine. G5519

And when he came G2064 to himself, G1438 he said, G2036 How G4214 many G4214 hired G3407 servants G3407 of my father's G3962 have bread G740 enough G4052 and to spare, G4052 and I perish G622 with hunger! G3042

And am G1510 no G3765 more G3765 worthy G514 to be called G2564 your son: G5207 make G4160 me as one G1520 of your hired G3407 servants. G3407

And the son G5207 said G2036 to him, Father, G3962 I have sinned G264 against G1519 heaven, G3772 and in your sight, G1799 and am G1510 no G3765 more G3765 worthy G514 to be called G2564 your son. G5207

And bring G5342 here G5602 the fatted G4618 calf, G3448 and kill G2380 it; and let us eat, G5315 and be merry: G2165

Now G1161 his elder G4245 son G5207 was in the field: G68 and as he came G2064 and drew near G1448 to the house, G3614 he heard G191 music G4858 and dancing. G5525

And he said G2036 to him, Your brother G80 is come; G2240 and your father G3962 has killed G2380 the fatted G4618 calf, G3448 because G3754 he has received G618 him safe G5198 and sound. G5198

And he answering G611 said G2036 to his father, G3962 See, G2400 these G5118 many G5118 years G2094 do I serve G1398 you, neither G3763 transgressed G3928 I at G3763 any G3763 time your commandment: G1785 and yet you never G3763 gave G1325 me a kid, G2056 that I might make G2165 merry G2165 with my friends: G5384

And he said G2036 to him, Son, G5043 you are G1488 ever G3842 with me, and all G3956 that I have G1699 is yours. G4674

Again G3825 he went G1831 out about G4012 the sixth G1623 and ninth G1766 hour, G5610 and did G4160 likewise. G5615

They say G3004 to him, Because G3754 no G3762 man G3762 has hired G3409 us. He said G3004 to them, Go G5217 you also G2532 into G1519 the vineyard; G290 and whatever G3739 G1437 is right, G1342 that shall you receive. G2983

For the Son of Man is as a man G444 taking a far journey, G590 who left G863 his house, G3614 and gave G1325 authority G1849 to his servants, G1401 and to every G1538 man his work, G2041 and commanded G1781 the porter G2377 to watch. G1127

Therefore, G5620 my beloved G27 brothers, G80 be you steadfast, G1476 unmovable, G277 always G3842 abounding G4052 in the work G2041 of the Lord, G2962 for as much as you know G1492 that your G5216 labor G2873 is not in vain G2756 in the Lord. G2962
