¹⁰ for the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.'

¹⁶ The lost I seek, and the driven away bring back, And the broken I bind up, and the sick I strengthen, And the fat and the strong I destroy, I feed it with judgment.

¹³ who before was speaking evil, and persecuting, and insulting, but I found kindness, because, being ignorant, I did `it' in unbelief,

¹⁴ and exceedingly abound did the grace of our Lord, with faith and love that `is' in Christ Jesus:

¹⁵ stedfast `is' the word, and of all acceptation worthy, that Christ Jesus came to the world to save sinners -- first of whom I am;

¹⁶ but because of this I found kindness, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all long-suffering, for a pattern of those about to believe on him to life age-during:

⁴ `What man of you having a hundred sheep, and having lost one out of them, doth not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go on after the lost one, till he may find it?

⁵ and having found, he doth lay `it' on his shoulders rejoicing,

⁶ and having come to the house, he doth call together the friends and the neighbours, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I found my sheep -- the lost one.

⁷ `I say to you, that so joy shall be in the heaven over one sinner reforming, rather than over ninety-nine righteous men, who have no need of reformation.

³² but to be merry, and to be glad, it was needful, because this thy brother was dead, and did live again, he was lost, and was found.'

²¹ and she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.'

²⁴ and he answering said, `I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.'

⁶ and be going rather unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

²⁵ whence also he is able to save to the very end, those coming through him unto God -- ever living to make intercession for them.

¹² And Jesus having heard, said to them, `They who are whole have no need of a physician, but they who are ill;

¹³ but having gone, learn ye what is, Kindness I will, and not sacrifice, for I did not come to call righteous men, but sinners, to reformation.'

⁶ For in our being still ailing, Christ in due time did die for the impious;

³¹ And Jesus answering said unto them, `They who are well have no need of a physician, but they that are ill:

³² I came not to call righteous men, but sinners, to reformation.'

⁹ In this was manifested the love of God in us, because His Son -- the only begotten -- hath God sent to the world, that we may live through him;

¹⁰ in this is the love, not that we loved God, but that He did love us, and did send His Son a propitiation for our sins.

¹¹ Beloved, if thus did God love us, we also ought one another to love;

¹² God no one hath ever seen; if we may love one another, God in us doth remain, and His love is having been perfected in us;

¹³ in this we know that in Him we do remain, and He in us, because of His Spirit He hath given us.

¹⁴ And we -- we have seen and do testify, that the Father hath sent the Son -- Saviour of the world;

¹⁰ `Beware! -- ye may not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you, that their messengers in the heavens do always behold the face of my Father who is in the heavens,
