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.’ So 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.

14 When he had spent all of it, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in need.
