15. So he went and worked for one of the citizens of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs.

16. He was longing to eat the carob pods the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.

17. But when he came to his senses he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired workers have food enough to spare, but here I am dying from hunger!
