Luke 19:10-12

Darby Translation

¹⁰ for the Son of man has come to seek and to save that which is lost.

¹¹ But as they were listening to these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem and they thought that the kingdom of God was about to be immediately manifested.

¹² He said therefore, A certain high-born man went to a distant country to receive for himself a kingdom and return.
