16. And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat; and no man gave to him.
17. And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread enough and to spare, and I am perishing with hunger!

19. And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
