24 so he called out, 'Father Abraham, take pity on me, send Lazarus to dip his fingertip in water and cool my tongue, for I am in anguish in these flames.'
25 But Abraham said, 'Remember, my son, you got all the bliss when you were alive, just as Lazarus got the ills of life; he is in comfort now, and you are in anguish.
26 Besides all that, a great gulf yawns between us and you, to keep back those who want to cross from us to you and also those who want to pass from you to us.'
27 Then he said, 'Well, father, I beg you to send him to my father's house,
28 for I have five brothers; let him bear testimony to them, that they may not come to this place of torture as well.'
29 'They have got Moses and the prophets,' said Abraham, 'they can listen to them.'
30 'No, father Abraham,' he said, 'but if someone only goes to them from the dead, they will repent.'
31 He said to him, 'If they will not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be convinced, not even if one rose from the dead."
