Luke 16:22-24

22Now it happened that the poor man died and was carried away by the angels to 12Abraham’s arms; and the rich man also died and was buried.

23And in 3Hades he raised his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far away and Lazarus in his 4arms.

24And he cried out and said, ‘5Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus, so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool off my tongue, for I am in agony in 6this flame.’
