ગુજરાતીલૂક ૧૫:૮
અથવા એક સ્ત્રી કે જેની પાસે ચાંદીના દસ સિક્કા હોય, અને તેઓમાંનો એક સિક્કો ખોવાય, તો તે દીવો કરીને, ઘર નહિ વાળે અને તે મળે નહિ ત્યાં સુધી તેની શોધ સારી રીતે નહિ કરે?
हिन्दीलूका १५:८
“या कौन ऐसी स्त्री होगी, जिसके पास दस चाँदी के सिक्के हों, और उनमें से एक खो जाए; तो वह दीया जलाकर और घर झाड़-बुहारकर जब तक मिल न जाए, जी लगाकर खोजती न रहे?

In context

6When he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’

7I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance.

8“Or what woman, if she had ten drachma coins, if she lost one drachma coin, wouldn’t light a lamp, sweep the house, and seek diligently until she found it?

9When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost!’

10Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting.”
