10 "See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.
10
“See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven.
12 What do you think? If 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?
12
“What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off?
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.
13
And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off.
14 So it is not the will of my Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
14
In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.
