Luke 15:7-9

Worldwide English (New Testament)

⁷ `I tell you, the angels in heaven will be glad like that when one bad person stops doing wrong things. The angels will be more glad about that one person than about ninety-nine good people who do not need to change their ways.'

⁸ `What woman will not do this? She has ten pieces of silver money. If she loses one of them, she lights a lamp and sweeps the house. She looks for the money until she finds it.

⁹ When she has found it, she calls her friends and neighbours to come. She says, "Be glad with me! I have found the piece of money I lost."
