American King James Version
"Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repents. ¶ "
— Luke 15:10, American King James Version
“Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.”
“Even so, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. ”
“Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting."”
“In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.””
“So I say to you, there shall be joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance.”
“Even so, I say to you, There is joy among the angels of God, when one sinner is turned away from his wrongdoing.”
“Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.”
I say to you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repents, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. ¶
Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, does not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it?
And when she has found it, she calls her friends and her neighbors together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost.
Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repents. ¶
And he said, A certain man had two sons:
And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me. And he divided to them his living.
And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
