Matthew 18:12-14

12 ¹What do you think? ²If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go in search of the one that went astray?

13 And if he finds it, truly, I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that never went astray.

14 So ³it is not the will of my^[a] Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
