10 "See that you don't look down on one of these little ones. Here is what I tell you. Their angels in heaven can go at any time to see my Father who is in heaven.

"What do you think? Suppose a man owns 100 sheep and one of them wanders away. Won't he leave the 99 sheep on the hills? Won't he go and look for the one that wandered off?
13
What I'm about to tell you is true. If he finds that sheep, he is happier about the one than about the 99 that didn't wander off.
14
It is the same with your Father in heaven. He does not want any of these little ones to be lost.
