RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 ησαν δε εγγιζοντες αυτω παντες οι τελωναι και [οι] αμαρτωλοι ακουειν αυτου.
1 Y SE llegaban á él todos los publicanos y pecadores á oirle.
1 Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming close to him to hear him.
2 και διεγογγυζον οι φαρισαιοι και οι γραμματεις λεγοντες οτι ουτος αμαρτωλους προσδεχεται και συνεσθιει αυτοις.
2 Y murmuraban los Fariseos y los escribas, diciendo: Este á los pecadores recibe, y con ellos come.
2 The Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, “This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them.”
3 ειπεν δε προς αυτους την παραβολην ταυτην λεγων·
3 Y él les propuso esta parábola, diciendo:
3 He told them this parable:
4 τις ανθρωπος εξ υμων εχων εκατον προβατα, και απολεσας εν εξ αυτων, ου καταλειπει τα ενενηκοντα εννεα εν τη ερημω και πορευεται επι το απολωλος εως ου ευρη αυτο;
4 ¿Qué hombre de vosotros, teniendo cien ovejas, si perdiere una de ellas, no deja las noventa y nueve en el desierto, y va á la que se perdió, hasta que la halle?
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?
5 και ευρων επιτιθησιν επι τους ωμους αυτου χαιρων,
5 Y hallada, la pone sobre sus hombros gozoso;
5 When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
6 και ελθων εις τον οικον συγκαλει τους φιλους και τους γειτονας λεγων αυτοις· συγχαρητε μοι οτι ευρον το προβατον μου το απολωλος.
6 Y viniendo á casa, junta á los amigos y á los vecinos, diciéndoles: Dadme el parabién, porque he hallado mi oveja que se 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!’
7 λεγω υμιν οτι ουτως χαρα εσται εν τω ουρανω επι ενι αμαρτωλω μετανοουντι η επι ενενηκοντα εννεα δικαιοις, οιτινες ου χρειαν εχουσιν μετανοιας.
7 Os digo, que así habrá [más] gozo en el cielo de un pecador que se arrepiente, que de noventa y nueve justos, que no necesitan arrepentimiento.
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.
8 η τις γυνη δραχμας εχουσα δεκα, εαν απολεση δραχμην μιαν, ουχι απτει λυχνον και σαροι την οικιαν και ζητει επιμελως εως οτου ευρη;
8 ¿O qué mujer que tiene diez dracmas, si perdiere una dracma, no enciende el candil, y barre la casa, y busca con diligencia hasta hallarla?
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?
9 και ευρουσα συγκαλει τας φιλας και τας γειτονας λεγουσα· συγχαρητε μοι οτι ευρον την δραχμην ην απωλεσα.
9 Y cuando la hubiere hallado, junta las amigas y las vecinas, diciendo: Dadme el parabién, porque he hallado la dracma 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!’
10 ουτως, λεγω υμιν, χαρα γινεται ενωπιον των αγγελων του θεου επι ενι αμαρτωλω μετανοουντι.
10 Así os digo que hay gozo delante de los ángeles de Dios 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.”
11 ειπεν δε· ανθρωπος τις ειχεν δυο υιους.
11 Y dijo: Un hombre tenía dos hijos;
11 He said, “A certain man had two sons.
12 και ειπεν ο νεωτερος αυτων τω πατρι· πατερ, δος μοι το επιβαλλον μερος της ουσιας. και διειλεν αυτοις τον βιον.
12 Y el menor de ellos dijo á su padre: Padre, dame la parte de la hacienda que me pertenece: y les repartió la hacienda.
12 The younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of your property.’ So he divided his livelihood between them.
13 και μετ ου πολλας ημερας συναγαγων απαντα ο νεωτερος υιος απεδημησεν εις χωραν μακραν, και εκει διεσκορπισεν την ουσιαν αυτου ζων ασωτως.
13 Y no muchos días después, juntándolo todo el hijo menor, partió lejos á una provincia apartada; y allí desperdició su hacienda viviendo perdidamente.
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.
14 δαπανησαντος δε αυτου παντα εγενετο λιμος ισχυρος κατα την χωραν εκεινην, και αυτος ηρξατο υστερεισθαι.
14 Y cuando todo lo hubo malgastado, vino una grande hambre en aquella provincia, y comenzóle á faltar.
14 When he had spent all of it, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in need.
15 και πορευθεις εκολληθη ενι των πολιτων της χωρας εκεινης, και επεμψεν αυτον εις τους αγρους αυτου βοσκειν χοιρους.
15 Y fué y se llegó á uno de los ciudadanos de aquella tierra, el cual le envió á su hacienda para que apacentase los puercos.
15 He went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed pigs.
16 και επεθυμει γεμισαι την κοιλιαν αυτου απο των κερατιων ων ησθιον οι χοιροι, και ουδεις εδιδου αυτω.
16 Y deseaba henchir su vientre de las algarrobas que comían los puercos; mas nadie se [las] daba.
16 He wanted to fill his belly with the pods that the pigs ate, but no one gave him any.
17 εις εαυτον δε ελθων ειπεν· ποσοι μισθιοι του πατρος μου περισσευουσιν αρτων, εγω δε λιμω απολλυμαι!
17 Y volviendo en sí, dijo: ¡Cuántos jornaleros en casa de mi padre tienen abundancia de pan, y yo aquí perezco 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!
18 αναστας πορευσομαι προς τον πατερα μου και ερω αυτω· πατερ, ημαρτον εις τον ουρανον και ενωπιον σου·
18 Me levantaré, é iré á mi padre, y le diré: Padre, 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.
19 ουκετι ειμι αξιος κληθηναι υιος σου· ποιησον με ως ενα των μισθιων σου.
19 Ya no soy digno de ser llamado tu hijo; hazme como á uno de tus jornaleros.
19 I am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired servants.”’
20 και αναστας ηλθεν προς τον πατερα αυτου. ετι δε αυτου μακραν απεχοντος ειδεν αυτον ο πατηρ αυτου και εσπλαγχνισθη, και δραμων επεπεσεν επι τον τραχηλον αυτου και κατεφιλησεν αυτον.
20 Y levantándose, vino á su padre. Y como aun estuviese lejos, viólo su padre, y fué movido á misericordia, y corrió, y echóse sobre su cuello, y besóle.
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.
21 ειπεν δε αυτω ο υιος· πατερ, ημαρτον εις τον ουρανον και ενωπιον σου, και ουκετι ειμι αξιος κληθηναι υιος σου.
21 Y el hijo le dijo: Padre, he pecado contra el cielo, y contra ti, y ya no soy digno de ser llamado 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.’
22 ειπεν δε ο πατηρ προς τους δουλους αυτου· εξενεγκατε την στολην την πρωτην και ενδυσατε αυτον, και δοτε δακτυλιον εις την χειρα αυτου και υποδηματα εις τους ποδας,
22 Mas el padre dijo á sus siervos: Sacad el principal vestido, y vestidle; y poned un anillo en su mano, y zapatos 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.
23 και ενεγκαντες τον μοσχον τον σιτευτον θυσατε, και φαγοντες ευφρανθωμεν,
23 Y traed el becerro grueso, y matadlo, y comamos, y hagamos fiesta:
23 Bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let’s eat and celebrate;
24 οτι ουτος ο υιος μου νεκρος ην και ανεζησεν, και απολωλως ην και ευρεθη. και ηρξαντο ευφραινεσθαι.
24 Porque este mi hijo muerto era, y ha revivido; habíase perdido, y es hallado. Y comenzaron á regocijarse.
24 for this, my son, was dead and is alive again. He was lost and is found.’ Then they began to celebrate.
25 ην δε ο υιος αυτου ο πρεσβυτερος εν αγρω· και ως ερχομενος ηγγισεν τη οικια, ηκουσεν συμφωνιας και χορων,
25 Y su hijo el mayor estaba en el campo; el cual como vino, y llegó cerca de casa, oyó la sinfonía y las danzas;
25 “Now his elder son was in the field. As he came near to the house, he heard music and dancing.
26 και προσκαλεσαμενος ενα των παιδων επυνθανετο τι ειη ταυτα.
26 Y llamando á uno de los criados, preguntóle qué era aquello.
26 He called one of the servants to him and asked what was going on.
27 ο δε ειπεν αυτω οτι ο αδελφος σου ηκει και εθυσεν ο πατηρ σου τον μοσχον τον σιτευτον, οτι υγιαινοντα αυτον απελαβεν.
27 Y él le dijo: Tu hermano ha venido; y tu padre ha muerto el becerro grueso, por haberle recibido 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.’
28 ωργισθη δε και ουκ ηθελεν εισελθειν. ο ουν πατηρ αυτου εξελθων παρεκαλει αυτον.
28 Entonces se enojó, y no quería entrar. Salió por tanto su padre, y le rogaba [que entrase].
28 But he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and begged him.
29 ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν τω πατρι· ιδου τοσαυτα ετη δουλευω σοι και ουδεποτε εντολην σου παρηλθον, και εμοι ουδεποτε εδωκας εριφον ινα μετα των φιλων μου ευφρανθω·
29 Mas él respondiendo, dijo al padre: He aquí tantos años te sirvo, no habiendo traspasado jamás tu mandamiento, y nunca me has dado un cabrito para gozarme 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.
30 οτε δε ο υιος σου ουτος, ο καταφαγων σου τον βιον μετα πορνων, ηλθεν, εθυσας αυτω τον μοσχον τον σιτευτον.
30 Mas cuando vino éste tu hijo, que ha consumido tu hacienda con rameras, has matado para él el becerro grueso.
30 But when this your son came, who has devoured your living with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.’
31 ο δε ειπεν αυτω· τεκνον, συ παντοτε μετ εμου ει, και παντα τα εμα σα εστιν·
31 El entonces le dijo: Hijo, tú siempre estás conmigo, y todas mis cosas son tuyas.
31 “He said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours.
32 ευφρανθηναι δε και χαρηναι εδει, οτι ο αδελφος σου ουτος νεκρος ην και ανεζησεν, και απολωλως ην και ευρεθη.
32 Mas era menester hacer fiesta y holgar[nos], porque este tu hermano muerto era, y ha revivido; habíase perdido, y es hallado.
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.’”

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).

  1. Quotes verse 15:8 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book I, Chapters XVI–XVII)

    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.

  2. Quotes verse 15:16 Augustine of Hippo, Confessions (Book III, Chapters V–VII)

    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!

  3. Quotes verse 15:7 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily LIX)

    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.

  4. Quotes verse 15:7 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (First Catechetical Lecture)

    … 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 …

  5. Quotes verse 15:4–10 Augustine of Hippo, Confessions (Book VIII, Chapters III–V)

    … no repentance." 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 …
