¹⁷Kwathi lapho isanguluka yathi: ‘Bangaki abaqashwa bakababa abanesinkwa esanele, kanti mina ngifa indlala.

¹⁸Ngiyakusuka, ngiye kubaba, ngithi kuye: Baba, ngonile kulo izulu naphambi kwakho;

¹⁹Angisafanele ukuthiwa indodana yakho; ngenze ngibe njengomunye wabaqashwa bakho.

²⁰Yasuka, yaya kuyise. Kuthe isekude, uyise wayibona, waba nesihe, wagijima, wawa entanyeni yakhe, wayanga.

²¹Indodana yathi kuye: ‘Baba, ngonile kulo izulu naphambi kwakho, angisafanele ukuthiwa indodana yakho.’

²²Kodwa uyise wathi ezincekwini zakhe: Khuphani nikhiphe ingubo enhle kunazo zonke, niyembathise; wafaka indandatho esandleni sakhe, nezicathulo ezinyaweni zakhe;

²⁵Indodana yakhe enkulu yayisensimini; yathi isiza isondela endlini, yezwa ukuhlabelela nokusina.

²⁶Yabiza enye yezinceku, yabuza ukuthi ziyini lezi zinto.

²⁷Wathi kuye: “Umfowenu ufikile; uyihlo uhlabile ithole elikhuluphalisiwe, ngokuba umamukele ephilile.

²⁸Wathukuthela, akavumanga ukungena; wayesephuma uyise, wamncenga.

²⁹Wasephendula wathi kuyise: Khangela, leminyaka eminengi ngikukhonza, kangizange ngeqe umlayo wakho;

³⁰Kodwa kuthe ifika le ndodana yakho, edle ukudla kwakho lezifebe, uyihlabele ithole elikhuluphalisiweyo.
