19 “There was a rich man who was clothed in ^apurple and fine linen and ^bwho feasted sumptuously every day. 20 And at his gate ^cwas laid a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, 21 who desired to be fed with ^dwhat fell from the rich man’s table. Moreover, even the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 The poor man died and was carried by ^ethe angels ^fto Abraham’s side. ^{▼▼Greek bosom; also verse 23} The rich man also died and was buried, 23 and in ^hHades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes and ⁱsaw Abraham far off and Lazarus ^jat his side. 24 And he called out, ^k‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and ^lcool my tongue, for ^mI am in anguish in this flame.’ 25 But Abraham said, ‘Child, remember that ⁿyou in your lifetime received your good things, and Lazarus in like manner bad things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in anguish. 26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, in order that those who would pass from here to you may not be able, and none may cross from there to us.’ 27 And he said, ‘Then I beg you, father, to send him to my father’s house— 28 for I have five brothers ^{▼▼Or brothers and sisters}—so that he may warn them, lest they also come into this place of torment.’ 29 But Abraham said, ‘They have ^pMoses and the Prophets; ^qlet them hear them.’ 30 And he said, ‘No, ^rfather Abraham, but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent.’ 31 He said to him, ‘If they do not hear ^sMoses and the Prophets, ^tneither will they be convinced if someone should rise from the dead.’”
