American King James Version
"And if so be that he find it, truly I say to you, he rejoices more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray. "
— Matthew 18:13, American King James Version
“And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.”
“And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth over it more than over the ninety and nine which have not gone astray. ”
“If he finds it, most certainly I tell you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine which have not gone astray.”
“And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he will rejoice more over it than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.”
“And if it so be that he find it: Amen I say to you, he rejoiceth more for that, than for the ninety-nine that went not astray.”
“And if he comes across it, truly I say to you, he has more joy over it than over the ninety-nine which have not gone out of the way.”
“And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.”
Take heed that you despise not one of these little ones; for I say to you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.
How think you? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, does he not leave the ninety and nine, and goes into the mountains, and seeks that which is gone astray?
And if so be that he find it, truly I say to you, he rejoices more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.
Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish. ¶
Moreover if your brother shall trespass against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone: if he shall hear you, you have gained your brother.
But if he will not hear you, then take with you one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
