Luke 16:23-26

English Standard Version

²³ and in ^(A)Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes and ^(B)saw Abraham far off and Lazarus ^(C)at his side. ²⁴ And he called out, ^(D)‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and ^(E)cool my tongue, for ^(F)I am in anguish in this flame.’ ²⁵ But Abraham said, ‘Child, remember that ^(G)you 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.’
