Luke 15:16-18

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁶ And he would gladly have fed on and ^[a]filled his belly with the ^[b]carob pods that the hogs were eating, but [they could not satisfy his hunger and] nobody gave him anything [better].^(A)

¹⁷ Then when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father have enough food, and [even food] to spare, but I am perishing (dying) here of hunger!

¹⁸ I will get up and go to my father, and I will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight.
