A SERMON OF D. MARTIN LVTHER OF THE LOST SHEPE.
Luke 15. Verse 1. Then resorted unto him all the Publicans and sinners to hear him. 2. Therefore the Pharisees and Scribes murmured, saying: He receiveth sinners and eateth with them. 3. Then spake he this parable to them saying: 4. What man of you having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not ⟨p. 93⟩leave ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? 5. And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders with joy. 6. And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them: Rejoice with me: for I have found my sheep which was lost. 7. I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven for one sinner that repenteth, more then for ninety & nine just men, which need none amendment of life.
