car mon fils que voici était mort, et il est revenu à la vie; il était perdu, et il est retrouvé. Et ils commencèrent à se réjouir.
perciocchè questo mio figliuolo era morto, ed è tornato a vita; era perduto, ed è stato ritrovato. E si misero a far gran festa.
Porque este meu filho estava morto, e reviveu, tinha-se perdido, e foi achado. E começaram a alegrar-se.
因為我這個兒子是死而復活,失而復得的。』他們就開始慶祝。
