¹¹ Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:

¹¹ Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry.

³² It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

¹⁰ So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.

¹² They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

¹⁰ Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

¹ But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock.

² Yea, whereto might the strength of their hands profit me, in whom old age was perished?

³⁰ And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

²⁴ For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
