(Luke 15: 11-32)
 

11. He said, "A certain man had two sons.

12. The younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me my share of your property.' He divided his livelihood between them.

13. Not many days after, the younger son gathered all of this together and traveled into a far country. There he wasted his property with riotous living.

44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

 

(Matthew 18:23-35)

 

23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.
24 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.
25 But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.
