18Every one that putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth one that is put away from a husband committeth adultery.

19Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, faring sumptuously every day:

20and a certain beggar named Lazarus was laid at his gate, full of sores,

21and desiring to be fed with the [crumbs] that fell from the rich man`s table; yea, even the dogs come and licked his sores.

22And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels into Abraham`s bosom: and the rich man also died, and was buried.

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

24And 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 in anguish in this flame.
