For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.

It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.

But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.
