Luke 16:22-28

22One dayG1161G1096 theG3588 beggarG4434 diedG599 andG2532 was carriedG667 byG5259 theG3588 angelsG32 toG1519 Abraham’sG11 sideG2859.1 AndG1161 theG3588 rich manG4145 alsoG2532 diedG599 andG2532 was buriedG2290. 23InG1722 HadesG86, where he wasG5225 inG1722 tormentG931, he looked upG1869G846G3588G3788 and sawG3708 AbrahamG11 fromG575 afarG3113, withG2532 LazarusG2976 byG1722 hisG846 sideG2859.

24SoG2532 heG846 cried outG5455G2036, ‘FatherG3962 AbrahamG11, have mercy onG1653 meG1473 andG2532 sendG3992 LazarusG2976 toG2443 dipG911 theG3588 tipG206 ofG3588 hisG846 fingerG1147 in waterG5204 andG2532 coolG2711 myG1473 tongueG1100. ForG3754 I am in agonyG3600 inG1722 thisG3778 fireG5395.’

25ButG1161 AbrahamG11 answeredG2036, ‘ChildG5043, rememberG3403 thatG3754 duringG1722 yourG4771 lifetimeG2222 you receivedG618 yourG4771 goodG18 things, while LazarusG2976 received badG2556 things. ButG1161 nowG3568 he is comfortedG3870 hereG5602, whileG1161 youG4771 are in agonyG3600. 26AndG2532 besidesG1722 allG3956 thisG3778, a greatG3173 chasmG5490 has been fixedG4741 betweenG3342 usG1473 andG2532 youG4771, so thatG3704 even those whoG3588 wishG2309 cannotG3361G1410 crossG1224 from hereG1759 toG4314 youG4771, norG3366 can anyone crossG1276 from thereG1564 toG4314 usG1473.’

27‘ThenG3767 I begG2065 youG4771, fatherG3962,’ he saidG2036, ‘sendG3992 Lazarus toG1519 myG1473 father’sG3962 houseG3624, 28forG1063 I haveG2192 fiveG4002 brothersG80. Let him warnG1263 themG846, so thatG2443 theyG846 will not also end upG3361G2532G2064 inG1519 thisG3778 placeG5117 of tormentG931.’
