Luke 15:19-21
Lexham English Bible
19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son! Make me like one of your hired workers.’ 20 And he set out and[a] came to his own father. But while[b] he was still a long way away, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and embraced him[c] and kissed him. 21 And his[d] son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight![e] I am no longer worthy to be called your son!’
