Luke 16:20-26 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

20. But a poor man named Lazarus had been laid at his gate, covered with sores

21. and longing to be fed with what fell from the rich man’s table. Besides, even the dogs were coming to lick his sores.

22. “It happened that the poor man died and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s side. Then the rich man also died and was buried.

23. And from Sheol, as he was in torment, he raised his eyes. And he sees Abraham far off, and Lazarus at his side.

24. So he cried out and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me! And send Lazarus so he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool off my tongue, because I am suffering torment in this flame.’

25. “But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that in your life you received your good things, even as Lazarus received the bad things. But now he is comforted here, and you are tormented.

26. Besides all this, between us and you a great chasm is firmly set, so that those who want to cross over to you cannot, nor can those from there cross over to us.
