THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. LUKE.
CHAPTER 16:
19 ¶ There was a certain rich man, which
was clothed in purple and fine linen, and
fared sumptuously every day:
20 And there was a certain beggar named
Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of
sores,
21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs
which fell from the rich man’s table:
moreover the dogs came and licked his
sores.
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar
died, and was carried by the angels into
Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died,
and was buried;
23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in
torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and
Lazarus in his bosom.
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 receivedst thy good
things, and likewise Lazarus evil things:
but now he is comforted, and thou art
tormented.
26 And beside all this, between us and you
there is a great gulf fixed: so that they
which would pass from hence to you
cannot; neither can they pass to us, that
would come from thence.
27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore,
father, that thou wouldest 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 saith unto him, They have
Moses and the prophets; let them hear
them.
30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but
if one went unto them from the dead, they
will repent.
31 And he said unto him, If they hear not
Moses and the prophets, neither will they
be persuaded, though one rose from the
dead.
CHAPTER 24:
27 And beginning at Moses and all the
prophets, he expounded unto them in all
the scriptures the things concerning
himself.
CHAPTER 24:
44 And he said unto them, These are the
words which I spake unto you, while I was
yet with you, that all things must be
fulfilled, which were written in the law of
Moses, and in the prophets, and in the
psalms, concerning me.

CHAPTER 14:
26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy
Ghost, whom the Father will send in my
name, he shall teach you all things, and
bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you.
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will
come to you.
