• 21: καὶ ἐπιθυμῶν χορτασθῆναι ἀπὸ τῶν πιπτόντων ἀπὸ τῆς τραπέζης τοῦ πλουσίου ἀλλὰ καὶ οἱ κύνες ἐρχόμενοι ἐπέλειχον τὰ ἕλκη αὐτοῦ.

and desiring to be filled with the crumbs form the rich man's table, but even the coming dogs licked his sores.

• 22: ἐγένετο δὲ ἀποθανεῖν τὸν πτωχὸν καὶ ἀπενεχθῆναι αὐτὸν ὑπὸ τῶν ἀγγέλων εἰς τὸν κόλπον τοῦ Ἀβραάμ ἀπέθανεν δὲ καὶ ὁ πλούσιος καὶ ἐτάφη

and it happened the poor (man) died and was carried away by the angels into the bosom of Abraham and the rich (man) also died and was buried.

• 23: καὶ ἐν τῷ ἅδῃ ἐπάρας τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ ὑπάρχων ἐν βασάνοις ὁρᾷ τὸν Ἀβραὰμ ἀπὸ μακρόθεν καὶ Λάζαρον ἐν τοῖς κόλποις αὐτοῦ

and he in Hades being in torment raising his eyes sees Abraham from afar and Lazarus in his bosom.

• 24: καὶ αὐτὸς φωνήσας εἶπεν Πάτερ Ἀβραάμ ἐλέησόν με καὶ πέμψον Λάζαρον ἵνα βάψῃ τὸ ἄκρον τοῦ δακτύλου αὐτοῦ ὕδατος καὶ καταψύξῃ τὴν γλῶσσάν μου ὅτι ὀδυνῶμαι ἐν τῇ φλογὶ ταύτῃ

and calling he said, "Father Abraham, pity me and send Lazarus so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue for I suffer in these flames."

• 25: εἶπε δὲ Ἀβραάμ Τέκνον μνήσθητι ὅτι ἀπέλαβες σὺ τὰ ἀγαθά σου ἐν τῇ ζωῇ σου καὶ Λάζαρος ὁμοίως τὰ κακά νῦν δὲ ὧδε παρακαλεῖται σὺ δὲ ὀδυνᾶσαι

but Abraham said, "Child, remember that you fully received your good things in your life and Lazarus likewsie bad things, but now he is comforted her, but you suffer.

• 26: καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσι τούτοις μεταξὺ ἡμῶν καὶ ὑμῶν χάσμα μέγα ἐστήρικται ὅπως οἱ θέλοντες διαβῆναι ἔνθεν πρὸς ὑμᾶς μὴ δύνωνται μηδὲ οἱ ἐκεῖθεν πρὸς ἡμᾶς διαπερῶσιν

and besides all these a great chasm has been fixed between you and us so that those desiring to pass from here to you are not able nor may they cross over from here to you."

• 27: εἶπε δέ Ἐρωτῶ οὖν σε πάτερ ἵνα πέμψῃς αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρός μου

and he said, "Then I ask you, Father, that you send him to my father's house

• 28: ἔχω γὰρ πέντε ἀδελφούς ὅπως διαμαρτύρηται αὐτοῖς ἵνα μὴ καὶ αὐτοὶ ἔλθωσιν εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον τῆς βασάνου

for I have five brothers, so that he may witness to them that they also not come to this place of torment."

• λέγει δὲ Ἀβραάμ Ἔχουσι Μωϋσέα καὶ τοὺς προφήτας ἀκουσάτωσαν αὐτῶν

but Abraham sasy, "They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them.

• 30: ὁ δὲ εἶπεν Οὐχί πάτερ Ἀβραάμ ἀλλ' ἐάν τις ἀπὸ νεκρῶν πορευθῇ πρὸς αὐτοὺς μετανοήσουσιν

but he said, "No, Father Abraham, but if someone from the dead should go to them they will repent.

• 31: εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ Εἰ Μωϋσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν οὐκ ἀκούουσιν οὐδ' ἐάν τις ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῇ πεισθήσονται

he then said to him, "If they will not hear Moses and they prophets, then they will not be persuaded even if someone should rise from the dead."
