11 And he said, A certain man had two sons;
12 and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of the estate that falls to me. And he divided unto them his living.
13 And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together and took his journey into a far country and there wasted his estate with riotous living.
14 And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
15 And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
16 And he longed to fill his belly with the husks that the swine ate, but no one gave them unto him.
17 And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have abundance of bread, and I perish here with hunger!
