New Testament

Luke 16:26-31 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

26. Moreover, between us and you a great chasm is established to prevent anyone from crossing who might wish to go from our side to yours or from your side to ours.’

27. He said, ‘Then I beg you, father, send him to my father’s house,

28. for I have five brothers, so that he may warn them, lest they too come to this place of torment.’

29. But Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the prophets. Let them listen to them.’

30. He said, ‘Oh no, father Abraham, but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’

31. Then Abraham said, ‘If they will not listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded if someone should rise from the dead.’”
