Luke 15:12-14

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹² And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the part of the property that falls [to me]. And he divided the estate between them.^(A)

¹³ And not many days after that, the younger son gathered up all that he had and journeyed into a distant country, and there he wasted his fortune in reckless and loose [from restraint] living.

¹⁴ And when he had spent all he had, a ^[a]mighty famine came upon that country, and he began to fall behind and be in want.
