24. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
25. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime didst receive thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted here, and thou art tormented.
26. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who would pass from here to you cannot; neither can they pass from there to us.
27. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou would send him to my father’s house,
28. for I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
29. Abraham said unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
