And he divided his property between them.Not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took a journey into a far country, and there he squandered his property in reckless living.And when he had spent everything, a severe famine arose in that country, and he began to be in need.So he went and hired himself out to one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed pigs.And he was longing to be fed with the pods that the pigs ate, and no one gave him anything."But when he came to himself, he said, 'How many of my father's hired servants have more than enough bread, but I perish here with hunger!I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you.I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired servants."'And he arose and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.And the son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.'
