Luke 16:19-23

AUV(i) 19 “Now there was a certain rich man who was dressed in purple [clothing] and soft linen [garments] and who lived every day in pleasure and luxury. 20 And a certain beggar named Lazarus, who was full of sores, was laid at the rich man’s doorway. 21 He longed to be fed with scraps that fell from the rich man’s table and even dogs came and licked his sores. 22 And it happened that the beggar died and [his spirit] was carried away by angels to a place close to Abraham. And the rich man also died and [his body] was buried. 23 And in the unseen place of departed spirits the rich man, who was being tormented, looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus close beside him.
