19 A certain man was rich, and was clothed in purple and fine linen, being daily splendidly gladdened:
20 And there was a certain beggar, Lazarus by name, who was cast at his gate, having been wounded,
21 And eagerly desirous to be fed from crumbs falling from the rich one's table: but also the dogs, coming, licked off his wounds.
22 And it was, the beggar died, and was carried by messengers into Abraham's bosom: and the rich one died also, and was buried;
23 And in hades, having lifted up his eyes, being in torments, he sees Abraham from far off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
24 And he having called out, said, Father Abraham, pity me, and send Lazarus, that he might dip his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
25 But Abraham said, Child, remember that thou didst receive thy good things in thy life, and Lazarus likewise evil things: and now here is he comforted, and thou art tormented.
26 And besides all these, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed: so that they wishing to pass through thence to you could not; neither could they cross over from thence to us.
27 And he said, Then I ask thee, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
28 For I have five brethren; that he might testify to them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
29 Abraham says to him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if some one from the dead go to them, they will change the mind.
31 And he said to him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither if any rise from the dead, will they be persueded.
