PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Muchos de los que cobraban impuestos y de los pecadores se acercaban a Jesús para oírlo.
1 Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming close to him to hear him.
1 Ἦσαν δὲ ἐγγίζοντες αὐτῷ πάντες οἱ τελῶναι καὶ [οἱ] ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἀκούειν αὐτοῦ.
2 Por eso, los fariseos y los maestros de la ley comenzaron a murmurar: Este hombre recibe a los pecadores y come con ellos.
2 The Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, “This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them.”
2 καὶ διεγόγγυζον οἱ Φαρισαῖοι καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς λέγοντες ὅτι οὗτος ἁμαρτωλοὺς προσδέχεται καὶ συνεσθίει αὐτοῖς.
3 Entonces él les contó esta parábola:
3 He told them this parable:
3 εἶπε δὲ πρὸς αὐτοὺς τὴν παραβολὴν ταύτην λέγων·
4 «Supongamos que uno de ustedes tiene cien ovejas y una de ellas se le pierde. ¿No deja las otras noventa y nueve en el campo y se va a buscar la oveja perdida hasta encontrarla?
4 “Which of you men, if you had one hundred sheep and lost one of them, wouldn’t leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one that was lost, until he found it?
4 τίς ἄνθρωπος ἐξ ὑμῶν ἔχων ἑκατὸν πρόβατα, καὶ ἀπολέσας ἓν ἐξ αὐτῶν, οὐ καταλείπει τὰ ἐνενήκοντα ἐννέα ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ πορεύεται ἐπὶ τὸ ἀπολωλὸς ἕως οὗ εὕρῃ αὐτό;
5 Y cuando la encuentra, lleno de alegría la pone sobre sus hombros
5 When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
5 καὶ εὑρὼν ἐπιτίθησιν ἐπὶ τοὺς ὤμους αὐτοῦ χαίρων,
6 y vuelve a la casa. Después, reúne a sus amigos y a sus vecinos y les dice: “Alégrense conmigo porque ya encontré la oveja que había perdido”.
6 When he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’
6 καὶ ἐλθὼν εἰς τὸν οἶκον συγκαλεῖ τοὺς φίλους καὶ τοὺς γείτονας λέγων αὐτοῖς· συγχάρητέ μοι ὅτι εὗρον τὸ πρόβατόν μου τὸ ἀπολωλός.
7 Les digo que lo mismo pasa en el cielo: hay más alegría por un pecador que se arrepiente que por noventa y nueve justos que no necesitan arrepentirse.
7 I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance.
7 λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι οὕτω χαρὰ ἔσται ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ ἐπὶ ἑνὶ ἁμαρτωλῷ μετανοοῦντι ἢ ἐπὶ ἐνενήκοντα ἐννέα δικαίοις, οἵτινες οὐ χρείαν ἔχουσι μετανοίας.
8 »Supongamos también que una mujer tiene diez monedas de plata y pierde una. ¿No encendería la lámpara y barrería la casa buscando con cuidado hasta encontrarla?
8 “Or what woman, if she had ten drachma coins, if she lost one drachma coin, wouldn’t light a lamp, sweep the house, and seek diligently until she found it?
8 Ἢ τίς γυνὴ δραχμὰς ἔχουσα δέκα, ἐὰν ἀπολέσῃ δραχμὴν μίαν, οὐχὶ ἅπτει λύχνον καὶ σαροῖ τὴν οἰκίαν καὶ ζητεῖ ἐπιμελῶς ἕως ὅτου εὕρῃ;
9 Y cuando la encuentra, reúne a sus amigas y vecinas y les dice: “Alégrense conmigo porque ya encontré la moneda que había perdido”.
9 When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost!’
9 καὶ εὑροῦσα συγκαλεῖ τὰς φίλας καὶ τὰς γείτονας λέγουσα· συγχάρητέ μοι ὅτι εὗρον τὴν δραχμὴν ἣν ἀπώλεσα.
10 Les digo que de la misma manera se alegra Dios con sus ángeles por un pecador que se arrepiente».
10 Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting.”
10 οὕτω, λέγω ὑμῖν, χαρὰ γίνεται ἐνώπιον τῶν ἀγγέλων τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐπὶ ἑνὶ ἁμαρτωλῷ μετανοοῦντι.
11 Jesús continuó y les dijo: «Un hombre tenía dos hijos.
11 He said, “A certain man had two sons.
11 Εἶπε δέ· ἄνθρωπός τις εἶχε δύο υἱούς.
12 Un día, el menor le dijo a su padre: “Papá, dame la parte que me toca de la herencia”. Entonces el padre repartió sus bienes entre los dos.
12 The younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of your property.’ So he divided his livelihood between them.
12 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ νεώτερος αὐτῶν τῷ πατρί· πάτερ, δός μοι τὸ ἐπιβάλλον μέρος τῆς οὐσίας. καὶ διεῖλεν αὐτοῖς τὸν βίον.
13 A los pocos días, el hijo menor juntó todo lo que tenía y se fue lejos, a otro país. Allí vivió desordenadamente y desperdició su herencia.
13 Not many days after, the younger son gathered all of this together and traveled into a far country. There he wasted his property with riotous living.
13 καὶ μετ᾽ οὐ πολλὰς ἡμέρας συναγαγὼν ἅπαντα ὁ νεώτερος υἱὸς ἀπεδήμησεν εἰς χώραν μακράν, καὶ ἐκεῖ διεσκόρπισε τὴν οὐσίαν αὐτοῦ ζῶν ἀσώτως.
14 Cuando ya lo había gastado todo, la comida empezó a faltar en ese país, y él comenzó a pasar hambre.
14 When he had spent all of it, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in need.
14 δαπανήσαντος δὲ αὐτοῦ πάντα ἐγένετο λιμὸς ἰσχυρὸς κατὰ τὴν χώραν ἐκείνην, καὶ αὐτὸς ἤρξατο ὑστερεῖσθαι.
15 Entonces fue y consiguió trabajo con un ciudadano del lugar, que lo mandó a sus campos a cuidar cerdos.
15 He went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed pigs.
15 καὶ πορευθεὶς ἐκολλήθη ἑνὶ τῶν πολιτῶν τῆς χώρας ἐκείνης, καὶ ἔπεμψεν αὐτὸν εἰς τοὺς ἀγροὺς αὐτοῦ βόσκειν χοίρους.
16 Tenía tanta hambre, que le daban ganas de llenarse el estómago con la comida que daban a los cerdos; pero nadie se la daba.
16 He wanted to fill his belly with the pods that the pigs ate, but no one gave him any.
16 καὶ ἐπεθύμει γεμίσαι τὴν κοιλίαν αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τῶν κερατίων ὧν ἤσθιον οἱ χοῖροι, καὶ οὐδεὶς ἐδίδου αὐτῷ.
17 Un día, se puso a pensar: “En la casa de mi padre, los jornaleros tienen comida en abundancia, y yo aquí me estoy muriendo de hambre.
17 But when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough to spare, and I’m dying with hunger!
17 εἰς ἑαυτὸν δὲ ἐλθὼν εἶπε· πόσοι μίσθιοι τοῦ πατρός μου περισσεύουσιν ἄρτων, ἐγὼ δὲ λιμῷ ἀπόλλυμαι!
18 Volveré a casa y le diré a mi padre: Papá, he pecado contra el cielo y contra ti.
18 I will get up and go to my father, and will tell him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight.
18 ἀναστὰς πορεύσομαι πρὸς τὸν πατέρα μου καὶ ἐρῶ αὐτῷ· πάτερ, ἥμαρτον εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ ἐνώπιόν σου.
19 Ya no merezco que digan que soy tu hijo. Trátame como a uno de tus jornaleros”.
19 I am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired servants.”’
19 οὐκέτι εἰμὶ ἄξιος κληθῆναι υἱός σου· ποίησόν με ὡς ἕνα τῶν μισθίων σου.
20 Así que viajó de regreso a la casa de su padre. »Cuando todavía estaba lejos, su padre lo vio y sintió compasión por él; salió corriendo a encontrarlo, lo abrazó y lo besó.
20 “He arose and came to his father. But while he was still far off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion, and ran, fell on his neck, and kissed him.
20 καὶ ἀναστὰς ἦλθε πρὸς τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ. ἔτι δὲ αὐτοῦ μακρὰν ἀπέχοντος εἶδεν αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐσπλαγχνίσθη, καὶ δραμὼν ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον αὐτοῦ καὶ κατεφίλησεν αὐτόν.
21 El joven le dijo: “Papá, he pecado contra el cielo y contra ti y ya no merezco que digan que soy tu hijo”.
21 The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
21 εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ υἱός· πάτερ, ἥμαρτον εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ ἐνώπιόν σου, καὶ οὐκέτι εἰμὶ ἄξιος κληθῆναι υἱός σου.
22 Pero el padre ordenó a sus sirvientes: “¡Pronto! Traigan la mejor ropa y vístanlo; pónganle un anillo en su dedo y sandalias en sus pies.
22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring out the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet.
22 εἶπε δὲ ὁ πατὴρ πρὸς τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ· ἐξενέγκατε τὴν στολὴν τὴν πρώτην καὶ ἐνδύσατε αὐτόν, καὶ δότε δακτύλιον εἰς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ καὶ ὑποδήματα εἰς τοὺς πόδας,
23 Y que maten el becerro más gordo para hacer fiesta,
23 Bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let’s eat and celebrate;
23 καὶ ἐνέγκαντες τὸν μόσχον τὸν σιτευτὸν θύσατε, καὶ φαγόντες εὐφρανθῶμεν,
24 porque este hijo mío estaba muerto pero ha vuelto a vivir; se había perdido y lo hemos encontrado”. Y comenzaron la fiesta.
24 for this, my son, was dead and is alive again. He was lost and is found.’ Then they began to celebrate.
24 ὅτι οὗτος ὁ υἱός μου νεκρὸς ἦν καὶ ἀνέζησε, καὶ ἀπολωλὼς ἦν καὶ εὑρέθη. καὶ ἤρξαντο εὐφραίνεσθαι.
25 »Mientras tanto, el hijo mayor estaba en el campo. Cuando ya iba de regreso, cerca de la casa, oyó la música del baile.
25 “Now his elder son was in the field. As he came near to the house, he heard music and dancing.
25 Ἦν δὲ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ὁ πρεσβύτερος ἐν ἀγρῷ· καὶ ὡς ἐρχόμενος ἤγγισε τῇ οἰκίᾳ, ἤκουσε συμφωνίας καὶ χορῶν,
26 Llamó a uno de los sirvientes y le preguntó qué estaba pasando.
26 He called one of the servants to him and asked what was going on.
26 καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος ἕνα τῶν παίδων ἐπυνθάνετο τί εἴη ταῦτα.
27 Él le respondió: “Tu hermano ha regresado y tu papá mandó matar el becerro más gordo porque lo ha recuperado sano y salvo”.
27 He said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has received him back safe and healthy.’
27 ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὅτι ὁ ἀδελφός σου ἥκει καὶ ἔθυσεν ὁ πατήρ σου τὸν μόσχον τὸν σιτευτόν, ὅτι ὑγιαίνοντα αὐτὸν ἀπέλαβεν.
28 El hermano mayor se enojó tanto que se negó a entrar. El padre tuvo que salir a suplicarle que entrara.
28 But he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and begged him.
28 ὠργίσθη δὲ καὶ οὐκ ἤθελεν εἰσελθεῖν. ὁ οὖν πατὴρ αὐτοῦ ἐξελθὼν παρεκάλει αὐτόν.
29 Pero él le respondió: “Por años he trabajado para ti sin desobedecerte, y jamás me has dado siquiera un cabrito para hacer una fiesta con mis amigos.
29 But he answered his father, ‘Behold, these many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed a commandment of yours, but you never gave me a goat, that I might celebrate with my friends.
29 ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπε τῷ πατρί· ἰδοὺ τοσαῦτα ἔτη δουλεύω σοι καὶ οὐδέποτε ἐντολήν σου παρῆλθον, καὶ ἐμοὶ οὐδέποτε ἔδωκας ἔριφον ἵνα μετὰ τῶν φίλων μου εὐφρανθῶ·
30 En cambio, ahora que regresa ese hijo tuyo, que ha malgastado tu dinero con prostitutas, mandas matar el becerro más gordo para él”.
30 But when this your son came, who has devoured your living with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.’
30 ὅτε δὲ ὁ υἱός σου οὗτος, ὁ καταφαγών σου τὸν βίον μετὰ πορνῶν, ἦλθεν, ἔθυσας αὐτῷ τὸν μόσχον τὸν σιτευτόν.
31 »Su padre le respondió: “Hijo mío, tú siempre estás conmigo y todo lo que tengo es tuyo.
31 “He said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours.
31 ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· τέκνον, σὺ πάντοτε μετ᾽ ἐμοῦ εἶ, καὶ πάντα τὰ ἐμὰ σά ἐστιν·
32 Pero teníamos que hacer fiesta y alegrarnos, pues tu hermano estaba muerto y ha vuelto a la vida, se había perdido y lo hemos encontrado”».
32 But it was appropriate to celebrate and be glad, for this, your brother, was dead, and is alive again. He was lost, and is found.’”
32 εὐφρανθῆναι δὲ καὶ χαρῆναι ἔδει, ὅτι ὁ ἀδελφός σου οὗτος νεκρὸς ἦν καὶ ἀνέζησε, καὶ ἀπολωλὼς ἦν καὶ εὑρέθη.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
In the same way they oracularly declare, that one power having departed also from the Duodecad, has perished; and this was represented by the woman who lost the drachma, and, lighting a lamp, again found it.
Far, indeed, was I wandering away from Thee, being even shut out from the very husks of the swine, whom with husks I fed. For how much better, then, are the fables of the grammarians and poets than these snares!

But Luke saith, that He even brought it on his shoulders, and that "There was greater joy over one sinner that repenteth, than over ninety and nine just persons." And from His forsaking those that were saved for it, and from His taking more pleasure in this one, He showed His earnestness about it to be great.

… Christ, as yet by calling only, but ere long by grace also, make you a new heart and a new spirit, that there may be gladness among the inhabitants of heaven: for if over one sinner that repenteth there is joy, according to the Gospel, how much more shall the salvation of so many souls move the inhabitants of …

And with much joyfulness do we hear, whenever we hear, how the lost sheep is brought home again on the Shepherd's shoulders, while the angels rejoice, and the drachma is restored to Thy treasury, the neighhours rejoicing with the woman who found it; and the joy of the solemn service of Thy house constraineth to tears, when in …
