Whiston(i)
19 But he spake also another parable: There was a rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day.
20 But a certain beggar named Lazarus, was laid at his gate full of ulcers.
21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich mans table: moreover, the dogs came and licked his ulcers.
22 And it came to pass that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abrahams bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried.
23 And in hades he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus resting in his bosom.
24 And he cried earnestly and said, Father Abraham have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is here comforted, and thou art pained.
26 And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they who would pass to you cannot; neither can they pass hither, from thence.
27 But he said, I pray thee therefore, Father Abraham, that thou wouldst send him to my fathers house:
28 For I have five brethren; that he may testifie unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
29 But Abraham said unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30 And he said, No, Father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
31 But he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be perswaded, though one rise from the dead, and go away to them.
