Weymouth New Testament WNT

27 "`Your brother has come,' he replied; `and your father has had the fat calf killed, because he has got him home safe and sound.'

28 "Then he was angry and would not go in. But his father came out and entreated him.

29 "`All these years,' replied the son, `I have been slaving for you, and I have never at any time disobeyed any of your orders, and yet you have never given me so much as a kid, for me to enjoy myself with my friends;

30 but now that this son of yours is come who has eaten up your property among his bad women, you have killed the fat calf for him.'

31 "`You my dear son,' said the father, `are always with me, and all that is mine is also yours.

32 We are bound to make merry and rejoice, for this brother of yours was dead and has come back to life, he was lost and has been found.'"

New International Version NIV

27 ‘Your brother has come,’ he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’

28 “The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him.

29 But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends.

30 But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!’

31 “ ‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours.

32 But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ ”
