Luke 16:22-31

22And it came to pass that the poor man died, and that he was carried away by the angels into the bosom of Abraham. And the rich man also died and was buried. 23And in hades lifting up his eyes, being in torments, he sees Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24And he crying out said, Father Abraham, have compassion on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am suffering in this flame. 25But Abraham said, Child, recollect that thou hast fully received thy good things in thy lifetime, and likewise Lazarus evil things. But now he is comforted here, and thou art in suffering. 26And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm is fixed, so that those who desire to pass hence to you cannot, nor do they who [desire to cross] from there pass over unto us. 27And he said, I beseech thee then, father, that thou wouldest send him to the house of my father, 28for I have five brothers, so that he may earnestly testify to them, that they also may not come to this place of torment. 29But Abraham says to him, They have Moses and the prophets: let them hear them. 30But he said, Nay, father Abraham, but if one from the dead should go to them, they will repent. 31And he said to him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, not even if one rise from among [the] dead will they be persuaded.
