Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 15:19 - I am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 15:20 - And he arose, and came to his father. But while he was yet afar off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
