Luke 16:19-26

19NowG1161 there wasG1510 a certainG5100 richG4145 manG444, and he wasG1510 clothed in purpleG4209 and fine linen, faring sumptuously every dayG2250: 20and a certainG5100 beggar namedG3686 LazarusG2976 was laid at his gateG4440, full of sores, 21and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fellG4098 from the richG4145 man’sG4145 tableG5132; yea, evenG2532 the dogsG2965 cameG2064 and licked his sores. 22And it cameG1096 to passG1096, that the beggar diedG599, and that he was carried awayG667 by the angelsG32 into Abraham’s bosomG2859: and the richG4145 manG4145 alsoG2532 diedG599, and was buriedG2290. 23And in HadesG86 he liftedG1869 up his eyesG3788, being in torments, and seeth AbrahamG11 afar off, and LazarusG2976 in his bosomG2859. 24And he cried and saidG3004, FatherG3962 AbrahamG11, have mercyG1653 on me, and sendG3992 LazarusG2976, that he may dipG911 the tip of his fingerG1147 in waterG5204, and cool my tongueG1100; for I am in anguish in this flameG5395. 25But AbrahamG11 saidG3004, SonG5043, rememberG3403 that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy goodG18 thingsG18, and LazarusG2976 in like manner evilG2556 thingsG18: but nowG1161 hereG5602 he is comfortedG3870, and thou art in anguish. 26And besides all this, between us and you there is a greatG3173 gulf fixed, that they that wouldG2309 pass from hence to you may not be ableG1410, and that none may cross over from thence to us.
