New Testament

Luke 16:19-23 New King James Version (NKJV)

19. “There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day.

20. But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate,

21. desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

22. So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died and was buried.

23. And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
