Jeremiah 3:1 Cross References - Twentieth_Century
Luke 15:16-24
16 He even longed to satisfy his hunger with the bean-pods on which the pigs were feeding; and no one gave him anything.
17 But, when he came to himself, he said 'How many of my father's hired servants have more bread than they can eat, while here am I starving to death!
18 I will get up and go to my father, and say to him "Father, I sinned against Heaven and against you;
19 I am no longer fit to be called your son; make me one of your hired servants."'
20 And he got up and went to his father. But, while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was deeply moved; he ran and threw his arms round his neck and kissed him.
21 'Father,' the son said, 'I sinned against Heaven and against you; I am no longer fit to be called your son; make me one of your hired servants.'
22 But the father turned to his servants and said 'Be quick and fetch a robe--the very best--and put it on him; give him a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet;
23 And bring the fattened calf and kill it, and let us eat and make merry;
24 For here is my son who was dead, and is alive again, was lost, and is found.' So they began making merry.
